Answer:

[0.184, 0.266]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of survey n =280

Number of veterans = 63

Confidence interval = 90%

Computation:

Probability of veterans = 63/280

Probability of veterans =0.225

a=0.1

Z(0.05) = 1.645 (from distribution table)

Confidence interval = 90%

So,

p ± Z*√[p(1-p)/n]

0.225 ± 1.645√(0.225(1-0.225)/280)

[0.184, 0.266]
