In September 2011, Gallup surveyed 1,004 American adults and asked them whether they blamed Barack Obama a great deal, a moderate amount, not much, or not at all for U. S. economic problems. The results showed that 53% of respondents blamed Barack Obama a great deal or a moderate amount. Calculate the 99% confidence interval for the proportion of all American adults who blame Barack Obama a great deal or a moderate amount for U. S. economic problems.

The 99% confidence interval for the proportion of all American adults who blame Barack Obama a great deal or a moderate amount for U.S. economic problems is (0.4894, 0.5706)..

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of , and a confidence level of , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of .

For this problem, we have that:

99% confidence level

So , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of , so .

The lower limit of this interval is:

The upper limit of this interval is:

The 99% confidence interval for the proportion of all American adults who blame Barack Obama a great deal or a moderate amount for U.S. economic problems is (0.4894, 0.5706)..
