A survey of 77 teenagers finds that 30 have 5 or more servings of soft drinks a week. a. Give a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of teenagers who have 5 or more servings of soft drinks a week. b. In the general population, 30% have 5 or more servings of soft drinks a week. Is there evidence that a higher proportion of teenagers have 5 or more servings of soft drinks a week than the general population

a) The 90% confidence interval for the proportion of teenagers who have 5 or more servings of soft drinks a week is (0.2982, 0.481).

b) 30% = 0.3 is part of the confidence interval, which means that there is no evidence that a higher proportion of teenagers have 5 or more servings of soft drinks a week than the general population.

Step-by-step explanation:

Question a:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of , and a confidence level of , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of .

A survey of 77 teenagers finds that 30 have 5 or more servings of soft drinks a week.

This means that

90% confidence level

So , z is the value of Z that has a p-value of , so .  

The lower limit of this interval is:

The upper limit of this interval is:

The 90% confidence interval for the proportion of teenagers who have 5 or more servings of soft drinks a week is (0.2982, 0.481).

Question b:

30% = 0.3 is part of the confidence interval, which means that there is no evidence that a higher proportion of teenagers have 5 or more servings of soft drinks a week than the general population.

on a coordinate grid, point a is at (−4.0, −2.4) and point b is at (4.0, −2.4). point b is a reflection of point a across the –axis. input either a lowercase x or i think is the right awnser
