Multiple Choice

Inc. Technology reported the results of consumer survey in which 300 Internet users indicated their level of agreement with the following statement: ʺThe government needs to be able to scan
Internet messages and user communications to prevent fraud and other crimes.ʺ The possible
Responses were ʺagree stronglyʺ, ʺagree somewhatʺ, ʺdisagree somewhatʺ, and ʺdisagree stronglyʺ.
The number of Internet users in each category is summarized in the table. $\begin{array}{l|l}\text { RESPONSE } & \text { NUMBER } \\\hline \text { Agree Strongly } & 60 \\\text { Agree Somewhat } & 110 \\\text { Disagree Somewhat } & 80 \\\text { Disagree Strongly } & 50\end{array}$

In order to determine whether the true proportions of Internet users in each response category differ, a one-way chi-square analysis should be conducted. As part of that analysis, a $95 \%$ confidence interval for the multinomial probability associated with the "Agree Strongly" response was desired. Which of the following confidence intervals should be used?

• A) \(( 0.141,0.259 )\)
• B) \(( 0.162,0.238 )\)
• C) \(( 0.155,0.245 )\)
• D) \(( 0.145,0.255 )\)
