A survey of 2,500 U.S. citizens yielded 1,600 who are in favor of gun control legislation. Estimate the proportion of all Americans who are in favor of gun control legislation using a 95% confidence interval.
Sample proportion = x/n = 1600/2500 = 0.64
For 95% confidence, z = 1.96
Hence,
95% confidence interval will be:
(0.6212, 0.6588)
