The most common answer was the fetal position (on the side, with legs pulled up), with 41% of the normal distribution to find a % confidence interval or the proport of all UK adults who start sleep n is position. Use the fact that the standard error of the estimate s 016 participants saying they start n this position. Use Round your answers to three decimal places The 95% confidence interval is to

Explanation / Answer

SE = 0.016

Z for 95% confidence interval = Z0.025 = 1.96

confidence interval = (p + Z0.025 * SE)

                               = (0.41 + 1.96 * 0.016)

                               = (0.41 + 0.031)

                               = (0.379 , 0.441)

Confidence interval is 0.379 to 0.041
