What is meant by confidence interval?

The range of values we see in our sample and hope to identify the value that most closely represents the population are referred to as a confidence interval.

According to the given information:

Sample size n = 1000

73% of town residents believed that local businesses overcharged for their products over 1000 resident.

= (1000/100) x 73

= 730

Sample proportion p = 730/1000

                                    = .73

q = 1-p = 0.23

Std error of proportion = √(pq/n)

                                      = √((.73*0.27)/1000)

                                      = 0.0140

95% Z critical value = 1.96

Margin of error = 1.96*0.0140

                          = 0.0274

Confidence interval = sample proportion ±margin of error

(0.7026, 0.7574)
