When 400 college students are randomly selected and surveyed, it is found that 100 own a car. Find a 88% confidence interval for the true proportion of all college students who own a car.
-------
sample proportion:: 100/400 = 0.25
ME = 1.5548*sqrt[0.25*0.75/400] = 0.0337
----
88%CI:: 0.25-0.0337 < p < 0.25+0.0337
