Dylan wants to determine a 90 percent confidence interval for the true proportion of high school students in the area who attend their home basketball games. How large of a sample must he have to get a margin of error less than 0.03

And rounded up we have that n=748

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 90% of confidence, our significance level would be given by and . And the critical value would be given by:

The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:  

   (a)  

And on this case we have that and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:  

  (b)  

The best estimatr for the proportionis 0.5 since we don't have any other info provided. And replacing into equation (b) the values from part a we got:

And rounded up we have that n=748
