within 5% of the population proportion
(a) No preliminary estimate is available. Find the minimum sample size needed
(b) Find the minimum sample size needed, using a prior study that found that 20% of the respondents said they eat fast food four to six times per week,
(c) Compare the results from parts (a) and (b).
n
(a) What is the minimum sample size needed assuming that no prior information is available?

(b) What is the minimum sample size needed using a prior study that found that 20% of the respondents said they eat fast food four to six times per week?
(Round up to the nearest whole number as needed)
(c) How do the results from (a) and (b) compare?
n
A. Having an estimate of the population proportion reduces the minimum sample size needed
B. Having an estimate of the population proportion has no effect on the minimum sample size needed
OC. Having an estimate of the population proportion raises the minimum sample size needed
