The interval 52% to 58% is based on a procedure that includes a sample representing 95% of population. The interval 52% to 58% is based on a procedure that includes the true population value 95% of the time. The interval 52% to 58% is based on a procedure that produces a margin of error (of ±3) 95% of the time.

The interval 52% to 58% is based on a procedure that includes the true population value 95% of the time.

Step-by-step explanation:

x% confidence interval:

A confidence interval is built from a sample, has bounds a and b, and has a confidence level of x%. It means that we are x% confident that the population mean is between a and b.

95% confidence

We are 95% sure that the interval contains the true mean/proportion, and thus, the correct option is:

The interval 52% to 58% is based on a procedure that includes the true population value 95% of the time.

step-by-step explanation:

answer: b.

step-by-step explanation:
