For Problems A – C: In a simple random
sample of 300 college students, 35.0 percent stated that they
intended to pursue an advanced degree.
1. How many of the 300 college students sampled
intend to pursue an advanced degree?
B. To the 95 percent confidence level, find the
confidence interval estimate (to nearest tenth of a
percent) of all college students who intend to
pursue an advanced degree. Can we safely assume that less than
40.0% of all college students intend to pursue an advanced
degree?
C. If we wanted to reduce the margin of error to 4.0
percent, how big would our sample size have to be (again
to the 95 percent confidence level)?
