Answer: (0.5496, 0.5754)

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval for population proportion (p) is given by :-

\hat{p}\pm z*\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}  , where \hat{p}= Sample proportion , n= sample size , z*= Critical z-value.

Let p be the  proportion of all college students who are in favor of banning Hawaiian shirt.

Given, A random sample of 4000 college students yielded 2250 who are in favor of banning Hawaiian shirts.

i.e. n=4000

\hat{p}=\dfrac{2250}{4000}=0.5625

z-value for 90% confidence level is 1.645

Now , 90% confidence interval for p would be :

0.5625\pm (1.645)(\sqrt{\dfrac{0.5625(1-0.5625)}{4000}})

=0.5625\pm (1.645)(\sqrt{0.0000615234375})\\\\=0.5625\pm (1.645)(0.00784368774876)\\\\\approx0.5625\pm0.0129\\\\=(0.5625-0.0129, \ 0.5625+0.0129)\\\\=(0.5496,\ 0.5754)

Hence, the required 90% interval = (0.5496, 0.5754)
