Use the sample data and confidence level given below to complete parts (a) through (d). A drug is used to help prevent blood clots in certain patients. In clinical trials, among 4886 patients treated with the drug, 129 developed adverse reaction of narusea. Construct a 95% confidence intercal for the proportion of adverse reactions. a. find the best point estimate of the population proportion p b. identify the value of the margn of error E c. construct the confidence interval

a. find the best point estimate of the population proportion p
b. identify the value of the margn of error E
c. construct the confidence interval
d. write a statement that correctly interprets the confidence interval. choose the correct answer below
a. one has 95% confidence that the sample proportion is equal to the population proportion.
b. there is a 95% chance that the true value of the population proportion will fall between the lower bound and the upper bound.
c. 95% of sample proportions will fall between the lower bound and the upper bound.
d. one has 95% confidence that the interval from the lowre bound to the upper bound actually does contain the true valie of the population proportion.
Hello! As you have posted more than 3 sub parts, we are answering the first 3 sub-parts. In case you require the unanswered parts also, kindly re-post that parts separately.
a)
Among 4886 patients treated with the drug, 129 developed adverse reaction of narusea.
best point estimate of the population proportion p is,
b)
Confidence level is 95%.
Significance level is 5%
From the standard normal table, the z critical value is 1.96.
Consider, the margin of error is,
