a. 0.4489 to 0.5159.
b. 0.4542 to 0.5105.
c. 0.4487 to 0.5161.
d. 0.4463 to 0.5185.

B. 0.4542 to 0.5105.

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval for population proportion is given by :-

, where = Sample proportion.

n= sample size.

z* = Critical value.

Let p represent the proportion of residents in the community that support the property tax levy.

As per given , we have

Of the 850 residents surveyed, 410 supported the property tax levy.

i.e. n= 850  ,

From z-table , the critical value corresponds to 90% confidence level = z*=1.645

Now, 90% confidence interval for p:

Hence, the correct answer is B. 0.4542 to 0.5105.
