Answer:

Explanation:

If you construct a 90% confidence interval for the population proportion and a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion, the 95% confidence will have a wider interval. This is because a higher confidence interval will provide more possible values from which the true value will be determined. Therefore, If you want more confidence that an interval contains the true parameter, then the intervals will be wider.
