What is Confidence Interval?
This refers to the probability of a parameter falling across a set of values around the mean.
To find the 90% confidence interval,
Probability= 45%= 0.45
Level of significance= 90%
1-0.90
= 0.10
[tex]z\alpha /2 = z(0.1/2) = 0.05[/tex]
The value of 0.05
P0.05= 1.645
P ± 1.645 x [tex]\sqrt{P0-p/n}[/tex]
0.45 ± 1.645 * [tex]\sqrt{0.48 (1-0.45)/200}[/tex]
0.45 ± 1.645 * 0.035178
0.45 ± 0.0578
0.45 - 0.0578, 0.45 + 0.0578
(0.4, 0.507)
