9. An online site presented this question, "Would the recent norovirus outbreak deter you from taking a cruise?" Among the 34,592 people who responded, 65% answered "yes." Use the sample data to construct a 95% confidence interval estimate for the proportion of the population of all people who would respond "yes" to that question. Does the confidence interval provide a good estimate of the population proportion?

11. During a period of 11 years 697 of the people selected for grand jury duty were sampled, and 65% of them were immigrants. Use the sample data to construct a 99% confidence interval estimate of the proportion of grand jury members who were immigrants. Given that among the people eligible for jury duty, 66.2% of them were immigrants, does it appear that the jury selection process was somehow biased against immigrants?
