Chlorouorocarbons (CFCs) are used in air conditioners. However, CFCs damage the ozone layer, which protects us from the sun's harmful rays. As a result many jurisdictions have banned the production and use o CFCs. The latest jurisdiction to do so is the province of Ontario, which has banned the use of CFCs in car and truck air conditioners. However, it is not known how many vehicles will be affected by the legislation. A surve of 650 vehicles was undertaken. Each vehicle was identified as either using CFCs (2) or not (1). Dataset is available at cfcs_url = "https://mcs.utm.utoronto.ca/~nosedal/data/cfcs.txt" Using R, find a point estimate for the proportion of vehicles affected by the law, i.e., the proportion of vehicles using CFCs. Round your final answer to four decimal places.

Chlorouorocarbons (CFCs) are used in air conditioners. However, CFCs damage the ozone layer, which
protects us from the sun's harmful rays. As a result many jurisdictions have banned the production and use of
CFCs. The latest jurisdiction to do so is the province of Ontario, which has banned the use of CFCs in car and
truck air conditioners. However, it is not known how many vehicles will be affected by the legislation. A survey
of 650 vehicles was undertaken. Each vehicle was identified as either using CFCs (2) or not (1). Dataset is
available at
cfcs_url = "https://mcs.utm.utoronto.ca/~nosedal/data/cfcs.txt"
Using R, find a point estimate for the proportion of vehicles affected by the law, i.e., the proportion of
vehicles using CFCs. Round your final answer to four decimal places.
