Answer:

Using 2SD Method

The confidence interval is

     The interval notation :  [tex](0.108 ,  0.212 )[/tex]

     The interval notation and the sample proportion ± the margin of error

     notation:[tex]0.16 \pm  0.052[/tex]

 The  interpretation

    There is  95% confidence that the true proportion of those that dislike  cilantro lie within the upper(0.212) and the lower(0.108) limit of the calculate confidence interval

Using theory-based method      

      The 95% confidence interval is

            The interval notation :   [tex](0.109 ,  0.211 )[/tex]

     The interval notation and the sample proportion ± the margin of error

     notation:[tex]0.16 \pm  0.051[/tex]

 The  interpretation

      There is  95% confidence that the true proportion of those that dislike  cilantro lie within the upper(0.211) and the lower(0.109) limit of the calculate confidence interval

Using theory-based method  

 The 88% confidence interval is  

         The interval notation :   [tex](0.120 ,  0.200 )[/tex]

          The interval notation and the sample proportion ± the margin of

           error notation:   [tex]0.16 \pm 0.040[/tex]

The interpretation is

  There is  88% confidence that the true proportion of those that dislike  cilantro lie within the upper(0.200 ) and the lower(0.120) limit of the calculate confidence interval.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The number sample size is n = 200

The number of people that dislike cilantro is k = 32

Generally the sample proportion is mathematically represented as

[tex]\r p = \frac{k}{N}[/tex]

=> [tex]\r p = \frac{32}{200}[/tex]

=> [tex]\r p = 0.16[/tex]

Generally 2SD confidence interval is mathematically represented as

[tex]\r p \pm 2\sqrt{\frac{\r p(1 - \r p)}{n} }[/tex]

substituting value

[tex]0.16 \pm 2\sqrt{\frac{0.16(1 - 0.16)}{200} }[/tex]

=> [tex]0.16 \pm 0.052[/tex]

This can also be represented as

[tex](0.16 - 0.052 , 0.06 + 0.052)[/tex]

=> [tex](0.108 , 0.212 )[/tex]

Generally this confidence interval can be interpreted as

There is 95% confidence that the true proportion of those that dislike cilantro lie within the upper and the lower limit of the calculate confidence interval

Using theory-based method estimate 95% confidence interval

Generally from the question the confidence level is 95% hence the level of significance is calculated as

[tex]\alpha = (100 - 95)\%[/tex]

=> [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

The critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table is

[tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 1.96[/tex]

Generally the confidence level using theory base method is

[tex]0.16 \pm 1.96 \sqrt{\frac{0.16 (1- 0.16)}{200} }[/tex]

=>     [tex]0.16 \pm 0.051[/tex]

This can also be represented as

[tex](0.16 - 0.051 , 0.06 + 0.051)[/tex]

=> [tex](0.109 , 0.211 )[/tex]

Generally this confidence interval can be interpreted as

There is 95% confidence that the true proportion of those that dislike cilantro lie within the upper(0.211) and the lower(0.109) limit of the calculate confidence interval

Using theory-based method estimate 88% confidence interval

Generally from the question the confidence level is 95% hence the level of significance is calculated as

[tex]\alpha = (100 - 88)\%[/tex]

=> [tex]\alpha = 0.12[/tex]

The critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table is

[tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =Z_{\frac{0.12 }{2} } = 1.55[/tex]

Generally the confidence level using theory base method is

[tex]0.16 \pm 1.55 \sqrt{\frac{0.16 (1- 0.16)}{200} }[/tex]

=>     [tex]0.16 \pm 0.040[/tex]

This can also be represented as

[tex](0.16 - 0.040 , 0.06 + 0.040)[/tex]

=> [tex](0.120 , 0.200 )[/tex]

Generally this confidence interval can be interpreted as

There is 88% confidence that the true proportion of those that dislike cilantro lie within the upper(0.200 ) and the lower(0.120) limit of the calculate confidence interval
