260 employees selected randomly from one company, 18.46 % of them commute by carpooling. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the true percentage of all employees of the company who carpool.
----------------
sample proportion:: p-hat = 0.1846
ME = 1.645sqrt[0.1846*0.8156/400] = 0.0319
-----------------------
90% CI:: 0.1846-0.0319 < p < 0.1846+0.0319
---------
90% CI:: 0.1527 < p < 0.2165
==============================
