Question 10
The manager of a gym selected a sample of 137 members at random to estimate the
percentage of the gym's members that would continue to pay for a membership if the
price increased. From the survey, the manager estimates that 82% of the gym's
members would continue to pay for a membership if the price increased, with an
associated margin of error of 6.43%. If the survey is repeated with a random sample of
274 members and the results are calculated in the same way, which of the following will
be the most likely effect of using the larger random sample compared to the smaller
random sample?
A) The margin of error will be lower.
B) The margin of error will be higher.
C) The estimate of the percentage of the gym's members that would continue to pay
for a membership if the price increased will be lower.
D) The estimate of the percentage of the gym's members that would continue to pay
for a membership if the price increased will be higher.
