During a recent drought, a water utility in a certain town sampled 100 residential water bills and found out that 73 of the residences had reduced their water consumption over that of the previous year. find a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of residences that reduced their water

(0.6430, 0.8170)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that during a recent drought a water utility in a certain town sampled 100 residential water bills and found out that 73 of the residences had reduced their water consumption over that of the previous year.

Sample size n = 100

Sample proportion p =

q = 1-p = 0.23

Std error of proportion =

95% Z critical value = 1.96

Margin of error =

Confidence interval = sample proportion ±margin of error

0.642983946

0.817016054

(0.6430, 0.8170)

sure i'm up for it
