Q.

Calculate Point Estimate: a) Calculate the best point estimate of the population proportion p.Best point estimate of p = number of returned surveys / total surveys sent=26711158=0.433
Identify Margin of Error: b) Identify the value of the margin of error E using the z-score for 99% confidence.Z-score for 99% confidence ≈2.576 (from z-table) Standard error (SE) = p(1−p)/n = 0.433(1−0.433)/2671 = 0.0096 Margin of error E=Z×SE = 2.576×0.0096 = 0.025
