Question 1155770: An employment counselor found that in a sample of 100 unemployed workers, 65% were not
interested in returning to work. Find the 95% confidence interval of the true proportion of
workers who do not wish to return to work. Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The half-interval is +/- 1.96*sqrt(p*(1-p)/n. and the sample proportion is 0.65
.65+/-1.96 sqrt (.65*.35/100)=0.65+/-0.93
(0.557, 0.743)
