Using the z-distribution, it is found that the lower bound of the 99% confidence interval is given by:
d. 68.39%.
<h3>What is a confidence interval of proportions?</h3>A confidence interval of proportions is given by:
In which:
is the sample proportion.
- z is the critical value.
- n is the sample size.
In this problem, we have a 99% confidence level, hence, z is the value of Z that has a p-value of
, so the critical value is z = 2.575.
The sample size and estimate are given by:
Hence, the lower bound is given by:
Hence the lower bound is of 68.39%, which means that option D is correct.

Starting off with the polynomial in standard form would be extremely difficult, but we can construct one fairly easily with the zeroes we've been given.
We know from the given zeroes that our function has the value 0 when x = 1, x = -2, and x = 2. Manipulating each equation, we can rewrite them as x - 1 = 0, x + 2 = 0, and x - 2 = 0. To construct our polynomial, we simply use all three of the expressions on the left side of the equation as factors and multiply them together, obtaining:
Notice that we can easily obtain each our three zeroes by dividing both sides by the two other factors. From here, we just need to expand the left-hand side of the equation. I'll show the work required here:
=0\\ (x^2-x+2x-2)(x-2)=0\\ (x^2+x-2)(x-2)=0\\ (x^2+x-2)x-(x^2+x-2)2=0\\ x^3+x^2-2x-(2x^2+2x-4)=0\\ x^3+x^2-2x-2x^2-2x+4=0\\ x^3+(x^2-2x^2)+(-2x-2x)+4=0\\ x^3-x^2-4x+4=0\\](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%28x-1%29%28x%2B2%29%28x-2%29%3D0%5C%5C%0A%5Cbig%5B%28x-1%29x%2B%28x-1%292%5Cbig%5D%28x-2%29%3D0%5C%5C%0A%28x%5E2-x%2B2x-2%29%28x-2%29%3D0%5C%5C%0A%28x%5E2%2Bx-2%29%28x-2%29%3D0%5C%5C%0A%28x%5E2%2Bx-2%29x-%28x%5E2%2Bx-2%292%3D0%5C%5C%0Ax%5E3%2Bx%5E2-2x-%282x%5E2%2B2x-4%29%3D0%5C%5C%0Ax%5E3%2Bx%5E2-2x-2x%5E2-2x%2B4%3D0%5C%5C%0Ax%5E3%2B%28x%5E2-2x%5E2%29%2B%28-2x-2x%29%2B4%3D0%5C%5C%0Ax%5E3-x%5E2-4x%2B4%3D0%5C%5C)
