Using the z-distribution, it is found that the margin of error for the true proportion of times this die would land on five dots is of 0.1338.
What is a confidence interval of proportions?
A confidence interval of proportions is given by:
[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
In which:
- [tex]\pi[/tex] is the sample proportion.
- z is the critical value.
- n is the sample size.
The margin of error is given by:
[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
In this problem, we have a 95% confidence level, hence[tex]\alpha = 0.95[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]\frac{1+0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so the critical value is z = 1.96.
The estimate and the sample size are given as follows:
[tex]\pi = \frac{25}{30} = 0.8333, n = 30[/tex].
Hence the margin of error is given by:
[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
[tex]M = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.8333(0.1667)}{30}}[/tex]
M = 0.1338.
