(a) Obtain a point estimate for the population proportion of adults in the country who believe that televisions are a luxury they could do without. p= 0.502 (Round to three decimal places as needed.) (b) Verify that the requirements for constructing a confidence interval about p are satisfied. The sample is stated to be a simple random sample, the value of np(1-p) is 256.496 , which is greater than or equal to 10, and the sample size can be assumed to be less than or equal to 5% of the population size. (Round to three decimal places as needed.) (c) Construct and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of adults in the country who believe that televisions are a luxury they could do without. Select the correct choice below and fill in any answer boxes within your choice (Type integers decimals rounded to three decimal places as needed. Use ascending order.) O A. We are % confident the proportion of adults in the country who believe that televisions are a luxury they could do without is between and O B. There is a % probability the proportion of adults in the country who believe that televisions are a luxury they could do without is between and
