Sample Size Calculator Terms: Confidence Interval & Confidence Level The confidence interval (also called margin of error) is the plus-or-minus figure usually reported in newspaper or television opinion poll results. For example‚ if you use a confidence interval of 4 and 47% percent of your sample picks an answer you can be "sure" that if you had asked the question of the entire relevant population between 43% (47-4) and 51% (47+4) would have picked that answer. The confidence level tells you

I. Sample Size Calculation (Calculated by Hand Only) Example 9.65 Pg. 297 The Chevrolet dealers of a large county are conducting a study to determine the proportion of car owners in the county who are considering the purchase of a new car within the next year. If the population proportion is believed to be no more than 0.15‚ how many owners must be included in a simple random sample if the dealers want to be 90% confident that the maximum likely error will be no more than 0.02? Given Data π = 0

&CHAPTER 7 Power Flow Analysis 7.1 INTRODUCTION Power flow analysis is concerned with describing the operating state of an entire power system‚ by which we mean a network of generators‚ transmission lines‚ and loads that could represent an area as small as a municipality or as large as several states. Given certain known quantities—typically‚ the amount of power generated and consumed at different locations—power flow analysis allows one to determine other quantities. The most important
