Question:

Refer to Exercise 42. The study also reported that 86% of millennials included 9/11 in their top-10 list and 70% of baby boomers included 9/11.

a. Explain why you do not have enough information to give confidence intervals for millennials and baby boomers separately.

b. Do you think a 95% confidence interval for baby boomers would have a larger or smaller margin of error than the estimate from Exercise 42? Explain your answer.


Exercise 42.

A recent study asked U.S. adults to name 10 historic events that occurred in their lifetime that have had the greatest impact on the country. The most frequently chosen answer was the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, which was included by 76% of the 2025 randomly selected U.S. adults. Construct and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all U.S. adults who would include the 9/11 attacks on their list of 10 historic events.
