Question

Everyday from Friday through Sunday one weekend, a sample of 205 people were taken at a park. They were given the opportunity tro try a new food stand item, for free. The only thing is that if they didn't eat the whole thing, they would be charged $20. Below is a record of who actually agreed to it it. 

Friday=74

Saturday=60

Sunday=71

We want to know if the proportion of people who ate the good on Friday is different than 1/3/ Check to see if using a hypothesis test of confidence interval would have any validity (check to see if our study can be used with our current values and sample size)

Calcualte and state the 95% confidence interval for the proportions of the people who ate the food on Friday.
