Step 1
Let's assume that a sample of 500 individuals was surveyed and 375 claimed they always buckle up. Therefore, the sample proportion is: p̂ = 375/500 = 0.75 Step 2: Calculate the standard error. The formula for the standard error of a proportion is: SE = Show more…

Use the sample data and confidence level given below to complete parts (a) through (c). In a study of cell phone use and brain hemispheric dominance, an Internet survey was emailed to 2425 subjects randomly selected from an online group involved with ears. 915 surveys were returned. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of returned surveys. A- Find the best point estimate of the population proportion p (Round to three decimal places) B- Identify the value of the margin of error E (Round to three decimal places) Answer: E= (Blank) C- Construct the confidence interval Answer: Blank < p > Blank
