We are interested in estimating the proportion of students at a university who smoke. Out of a random sample of 200 students from this university, 40 students smoke.
(a) Calculate a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of students at this university who smoke, and interpret this interval in context.
(b) If we wanted the margin of error to be no larger than 2% at a 95% confidence level for the
proportion of students who smoke, how big of a sample would we need?
