4. Researchers conducted a study of variety in exercise workouts. A sample of 120 men and women were randomly divided into three groups with 40 people per group. Group 1 members varied their exercise routine in workouts group 2 members performed the same exercise at each workout and group 3 members had no set schedule or regulations for their workouts.
A. By the end pf the study, 18 people had dropped out of the first exercise group. Estimate the dropout rate for exercises who vary their routine in workouts. Use 955 confidense interval
The 95% confidence interval is ___ ___
