7.3 Confidence Intervals and Sample Size for Proportions Most of these are from Bluman, 5 th Edition slides © McGraw Hill With certain enhancements by Darton State College staff at Cordele, especially the TI-84 examples Bluman, Chapter 7 1

7.3 Confidence Intervals and Sample Size for Proportions p = population proportion (read p “hat”) = sample proportion For a sample proportion, where X = number of sample units that possess the characteristics of interest and n = sample size. Bluman, Chapter 7 2

In a recent survey of 150 households, 54 had central air conditioning. Find and, where is the proportion of households that have central air conditioning. Since X = 54 and n = 150, Example 7-8: Air Conditioned Households Bluman, Chapter 7 3

when np  5 and nq  5. Formula for a Specific Confidence Interval for a Proportion Bluman, Chapter 7 4 Rounding Rule: Round off to three decimal places.

TI-84 STAT, TESTS, A:1-PropZInt “Proportion”, one sample, Confidence Interval using z (Normal Distribution) For their Central Air Conditioning example: 90% confid. that 29.5% to 42.4% have it. Bluman, Chapter 75

A sample of 500 nursing applications included 60 from men. Find the 90% confidence interval of the true proportion of men who applied to the nursing program. Example 7-9: Male Nurses Bluman, Chapter 7 6 You can be 90% confident that the percentage of applicants who are men is between 9.6% and 14.4%.

Male Nurses example with TI-84 We care about the PROPORTION, not the actual number of applicants, in this case. We are 90% confident that the proportion of male applicants is between.096 and.144 (9.6% to 14.4%) Bluman, Chapter 77

If necessary, round Bump it up to the next whole number, Unless it just happened to come to an exact whole number naturally (extremely unlikely for that to happen). Formula for Minimum Sample Size Needed for Interval Estimate of a Population Proportion Bluman, Chapter 7 8

A researcher wishes to estimate, with 95% confidence, the proportion of people who own a home computer. A previous study shows that 40% of those interviewed had a computer at home. The researcher wishes to be accurate within 2% of the true proportion. Find the minimum sample size necessary. Example 7-11: Home Computers Bluman, Chapter 7 9 The researcher should interview a sample of at least 2305 people.

The same researcher wishes to estimate the proportion of executives who own a car phone. She wants to be 90% confident and be accurate within 5% of the true proportion. Find the minimum sample size necessary. Since there is no prior knowledge of, statisticians assign the values = 0.5 and = 0.5. The sample size obtained by using these values will be large enough to ensure the specified degree of confidence. Example 7-12: Car Phone Ownership Bluman, Chapter 7 10 The researcher should ask at least 273 executives.
