During a period of 11 years 1392 of the people selected for grand
jury duty were sampled, and 37% of them were immigrants. Use the
sample data to construct a 99% confidence interval estimate of the
proportion of grand jury members who were immigrants. Given that
among the people eligible for jury duty, 52.4% of them were
immigrants, does it appear the the jury selection process was
somehow biased against immigrants?
