In a sample of 225 college seniors, 189 responded positively when asked if they have spring fever. Based upon this, compute a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all college seniors who have spring fever.    Carry the intermediate computations to at least three decimal places. Round the answers to two decimal places.  (a)  What is the lower limit of the 95% confidence interval?   (b)  What is the upper limit of the 95% confidence interval?
