A telephone poll of 1000 adult Americans was reported in an issue of Time Magazine. One of the questions asked was "What is the main problem facing the country"? 200 answered "crime". We are interested in the population proportion of adult Americans who feel that crime is the main problem. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of adult Americans who feel that crime is the main problem. Find the margin of error.
