The 95% confidence interval is

0.7811 < p < 0.9529

Generally the interval above can interpreted as

There is 95% confidence that the true proportion of Wal-Mart stores that have more than 2 items priced inaccurately per 100 items scanned lie within the interval

Generally 99% is outside the interval obtained in a above then the claim of Wal-mart is not believable

$n = 125 \ stores$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The sample size is n = 60

The number of stores that had more than 2 items price incorrectly is k = 52

Generally the sample proportion is mathematically represented as

$\^ p = \frac{ k }{ n }$

=> $\^ p = \frac{ 52 }{ 60 }$

=> $\^ p = 0.867$

From the question we are told the confidence level is 95% , hence the level of significance is

$\alpha = (100 - 95 ) \%$

=> $\alpha = 0.05$

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value of $\frac{\alpha }{2}$ is

$Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 1.96$

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as

$E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \sqrt{\frac{\^ p (1- \^ p)}{n} }$

=> $E = 1.96 * \sqrt{\frac{ 0.867 (1- 0.867)}{60} }$

=> E = 0.0859

Generally 95% confidence interval is mathematically represented as

$\^ p -E < p < \^ p +E$

=> 0.867 - 0.0859 < p < 0.867 + 0.0859

=> 0.7811 < p < 0.9529

Generally the interval above can interpreted as

There is 95% confidence that the true proportion of Wal-Mart stores that have more than 2 items priced inaccurately per 100 items scanned lie within the interval

Considering question b

Generally 99% is outside the interval obtained in a above then the claim of Wal-mart is not believable

Considering question c

From the question we are told that

The margin of error is E = 0.05

From the question we are told the confidence level is 95% , hence the level of significance is

$\alpha = (100 - 95 ) \%$

=> $\alpha = 0.05$

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value of $\frac{\alpha }{2}$ is

$Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 1.645$

Generally the sample size is mathematically represented as

$n = [\frac{Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }}{E} ]^2 * \^ p (1 - \^ p )$

=> $n= [\frac{1.645 }}{0.05} ]^2 * 0.867 (1 - 0.867 )$

=> $n = 125 \ stores$
