CNN is conducting a poll, and wants to produce a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of all New York residents who favor legalizing recreational marijuana. Of the 602 randomly selected New Yorkers surveyed, 394 were in favor of the initiative. a. With 90% confidence, the proportion of New York residents who favor legalizing recreational marijuana is between BLANK and BLANK. b. Suppose that we survey 602 randomly selected Americans many times, and calculate a confidence interval for each group. About Blank . percent of these confidence intervals will contain the true population proportion of New Yorkers who favor legalizing recreational marijuana, and about BLANK percent will not contain the true population proportion.

In November 2018, 50,000 people living in the United States were asked whether they had a computer at home. Suppose 48,121 answered yes, they had a computer at home. There were 326,766,748 people living in the United States at the time of the survey.
