Suppose that 60% of Americans planned to vote in the next election. You take a random sample of 60 people and ask them if they plan on voting in the next presidential election. What approximate distribution would you expect for the sampling distribution of the sample proportion of Americans who planned on voting?

Forty two males were recorded on their reaction time to a stimulus. The 95% confidence interval for the population mean was (17.10, 20.34) seconds. What do we know from this confidence interval?
