Quiz: Qur 5 . Chapters 9 and 1 × 0 C 110%) a Sea https://kirtlandinstructure oorn/courses/235 1325/quizzes/4873637/t In a survey of 2065 adults in a certain country conducted during a period of economic uncertainty, 58% thought that the wages paid to workers in industry were too low. The margin of error was 2 percentage points with 95% confidence. Daniel's interpretation of the survey results is as follows: We are 93% to 97% confident 58% of adults in the country during the period of economic uncertainty felt wages paid to workers in industry were too low Is this interpretation reasonable? If it is not reasonable, explain the flaw. O The interpretation is flawed. The interpretation suggests that this interval sets the standard for all the other intervals, which is not true. O The interpretation is flawed. The interpretation indicates that the level of confidence is varying. O The interpretation is flawed. No interval has been provided about the population proportion. The interpretation is reasonable

Explanation / Answer

The margin of error is not for the confidence level but for the proportion percentage. Therefore the confidence interval would be given here as: (56% , 60% )

The confidence interval would remain 95%. Therefore the interpretation here is flawed as it is varying the confidence level itself from 95% to 93% or 97%.

Therefore B is the correct answer here.
