Question
You intend to estimate a population proportion with a confidence interval. The data suggests that the normal distribution is a reasonable approximation for the binomial distribution in this case. While it is an uncommon confidence level, find the critical value that corresponds to a confidence level of 97.1%.

Answer:
The critical value that corresponds to a confidence level of 97.1% is .
Step-by-step explanation:
In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of , and a confidence level of , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
In which
z is the z-score that has a p-value of .
97.1% confidence level
So , z is the value of Z that has a p-value of , so .
The critical value that corresponds to a confidence level of 97.1% is .
