Question

A genetic experiment with peas resulted in one sample of offspring that consisted of 425green peas and 154 yellow peas.

a. Construct a 90% confidence interval to estimate of the percentage of yellow peas.

b. It was expected that 25% of the offspring peas would be yellow. Given that the percentage of offspring yellow peas is not 25%, do the results contradict expectations?

a. Construct a

90%

confidence interval. Express the percentages in decimal form.

nothing<p<nothing

(Round to three decimal places as needed.)

b. Given that the percentage of offspring yellow peas is not 25%, do the results contradict expectations?

Yes, the confidence interval does not include 0.25, so the true percentage could not equal 25%

No, the confidence interval includes 0.25, so the true percentage could easily equal 25%
