35
​candies, and

of its candies are red. Use the sample data to construct a
90​%
confidence interval estimate of the percentage of red candies. What do you conclude about the claim of
34​%?
 
 
 
Construct a
90%
confidence interval estimate of the population percentage of candies that are red.
 
nothing​%<p<nothing​%
​(Type an integer or decimal rounded to one decimal place as​ needed.)
