Alcohol abuse has been described by college presidents as the number one problem on campus, and it is an important cause of death in young adults. How common is it? A survey of 10,904 randomly selected U.S. college students collected information on drinking behavior and alcohol-related problems. The researchers defined “frequent binge drinking” as having five or more drinks in a row three or more times in the past two weeks. According to this definition, 2486 students were classified as frequent binge drinkers. Construct and interpret a 99% confidence interval for the proportion of students who are classified as binge drinkers. (Use the four-step process.)
