Use the sample data and confidence level given below to complete parts (a) through (d). A research institute poll asked respondents if they felt vulnerable to identity theft. In the poll, n = 958 and x = 572 who said "yes." Use a 95% confidence level. Click the icon to view a table of z scores. a) Find the best point estimate of the population proportion p. 0.597 (Round to three decimal places as needed.) b) Identify the value of the margin of error E. E=0.031 (Round to three decimal places as needed.) c) Construct the confidence interval. 0.566

E=0.031 (Round to three decimal places as needed.) c) Construct the confidence interval. 0.566 <p< 0.628 (Round to three decimal places as needed.) d) Write a statement that correctly interprets the confidence interval. Choose the correct answer below. OA. One has 95% confidence that the interval from the lower bound to the upper bound actually does contain the true value of the population proportion. OB. One has 95% confidence that the sample proportion is equal to the population proportion. OC. There is a 95% chance that the true value of the population proportion will fall between the lower bound and the upper bound. OD. 95% of sample proportions will fall between the lower bound and the upper bound.
