A survey of 865 voters in one state reveals that 408 favor approval of an issue before a legislature. Construct the 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of all voters in the state who favor approval.
\n" ); document.write( "I know the answer is 12.74
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "sample proportion = 408/865 = 0.47
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------
\n" ); document.write( "standard error = 1.96*sqrt[0.47*0.53/865] = 0.033
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "95% CI: 0.47-0.33 < p < 0.47+0.33
\n" ); document.write( "95% CI: 0.14 < p < 0.8
\n" ); document.write( "=============================
