A psychologist is interested in constructing a 99% confidence interval for the proportion of people who accept the theory that a person's spirit is no more than the complicated network of neurons in the brain. 68 of the 754 randomly selected people who were surveyed agreed with this theory. a. With 99% confidence the proportion of all people who accept the theory that a person's spirit is no more than the complicated network of neurons in the brain is between ___ and ___. b. If many groups of 754 randomly selected people are surveyed, then a different confidence interval would be produced from each group. About____ percent of these confidence intervals will contain the true population proportion of all people who accept the theory that a person's spirit is no more than the complicated network of neurons in the brain and about____ percent will not contain the true population proportion.
