Answer:

The 93% confidence interval of the true proportion of people who watched educational TV

(0.73716 , 0.80684)

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given sample size 'n' = 145

A random sample of 145 people, 112 said that they watched educational TV.

Sample proportion

                         [tex]p^{-} = \frac{112}{145} = 0.772[/tex]

Step(ii):-

The 93% confidence interval of the true proportion of people who watched educational TV

[tex](p- Z_{0.07}\sqrt{\frac{pq}{n} } , p + Z_{0.07} \sqrt{\frac{pq}{n} } )[/tex]

[tex](0.772- 1.427\sqrt{\frac{0.772X0.228}{145} } , 0.772 + 1.427 \sqrt{\frac{0.772X0.228}{145} } )[/tex]

( 0.772 - 0.03484 , 0.772 + 0.03484)

(0.73716 , 0.80684)

Final answer:-

The 93% confidence interval of the true proportion of people who watched educational TV

(0.73716 , 0.80684)
