Blood pressure: High blood pressure has been identified as a risk factor for heart attacks and strokes. The proportion of U.S. adults with high blood pressure is 0.3 . A sample of 78 U.S. adults is chosen. Find the probability that the proportion of individuals in the sample of 78 who have high blood pressure is between 0.22 and 0.32 .
