14. The supervisors of a rural county are interested in the proportion of property owners who support the construction of a new high school for the area. Rather than contact all 7,000 of the owners, the supervisors decide to take a random sample of 300. (a) During each interview, the supervisor's representative asks, "Do you support the building of a new high school for the area?" For this sample, 58% of the respondents said yes. If the representative took a second random sample of 300 property owners, would this second sample proportion of those who support building a new high school be exactly the same as that found in the first sample?
