Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The confidence interval estimator for the total number of successes in a population of size N, using a sample of size n, is given by:
CI = (n/N) * (N - n) * (1 - α/2)
where α is the significance level (usually 0.05 or 0.01). This formula gives the range within which the true total number of successes is expected to fall with a certain level of confidence. The formula in option B is the closest match to the correct formula.
