Mechanical components are being produced continuously. A quality control program for the mechanical components requires a close estimate of the proportion defective in production when all settings are correct. 1020 components are examined under these conditions, and 27 of the 1020 items are found to be defective. (a) Find a point estimate of the proportion defective. (b) Find a 95% two-sided confidence interval. (c) Find an upper limit giving 95% level of confidence that the true proportion defective is less than this limiting value. Use Excel in parts (b) and (c
