Question 2

Which is true about a 98% confidence interval for a population proportion based on a given sample?
I.   We are 98% confident that other sample proportions will be in our interval.
II.  There is a 98% chance that our interval contains the population proportion.
III. The interval is wider than a 95% confidence interval would be.
