Find the margin of error for the given confidence level and values of x and n. x=79, n=187, 98% confidence level
Solution :
Given that,
Point estimate = sample proportion = = x / n = 79 / 187 = 0.422
1 - = 1 - 0.422 = 0.578
Z/2 = 2.326
Margin of error = E = Z / 2 * (( * (1 - )) / n)
= 2.326 * (((0.422 * 0.578) / 187)
Margin of error = E = 0.084
