Question
Chapter 9.3, Problem 9.43E
To determine
To explain whether the information make sense.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 9.43E
It does not make sense to calculate a confidence interval
Explanation of Solution
The collected information having 44 presidents, which are all presidents. Therefore, Joe is capable of directly calculating the population proportion p. No need to go for confidence interval. Hence, it does not make sense to calculate a confidence interval for p, as we know the actual value of p.
