A survey of
250250
young professionals found that
two dash thirdstwo-thirds
of them use their cell phones primarily for e-mail. Can you conclude statistically that the population proportion who use cell phones primarily for e-mail is less than
0.720.72?
Use a 95% confidence interval.
Question content area bottom
Part 1
The 95% confidence interval is
left bracket nothing comma nothing right bracket0.60820.6082, 0.72510.7251.
As
0.720.72
is
within the limits
of the confidence interval, we
cannot
conclude that the population proportion is less than
0.720.72.
