Question 1075091: A recent survey showed that among 100 randomly selected college seniors, 20 plan to attend graduate school and 80 do not. Determine a 80 % confidence interval for the population proportion of college seniors who plan to attend graduate school. (Enter each answer rounded to three decimal places.) Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The interval is z* sqrt {(.2*.8)/100}, where z=+/-1.28
That is +/-0.051
The point estimate is 0.2, and that goes in front of the interval
The interval is (0.149, 0.251)
