Question

A poll of 3000 senior citizens indicates that 70% of them use at least one prescription medication. We wish to construct an 85% confidence interval for the corresponding population proportion. 6. Explain how the pre-requisites for constructing this confidence interval are met. Indicate each pre-requisite and explain (in context) how it is met. (or indicate the necessary assumptions you need to make) Note: this problem is worth 4 points. 7. In order to construct the confidence interval, the following margin of error needs to be computed: E = Za/2. 77 where Zaf2 is the critical value. What is the critical value you need to use here?
