- A beverage company would like to determine if their drink is preferred to a rival company’s drink. They perform an experiment with 150 randomly selected individuals and have them taste test the two different drinks in a controlled environment so that each person's preference is independent of others. A 90% confidence interval for the proportion preferring their drink is (0.453, 0.587). Which of the following is the correct interpretation of this confidence interval? 90% of all consumers prefer this beverage company’s drink to their rival’s between 45.3% and 58.7% of the time. We’re 90% confident that between 45.3% and 58.7% of all consumers would prefer this beverage company’s drink to their rival’s drink. We’re 90% confident that there’s a 45.3% to 58.7% chance that a randomly selected person would prefer this beverage company’s drink to their rival’s drink. We’re 90% confident that the proportion of people in the sample who prefer this beverage company’s drink over their…arrow_forwardA clinic measured the systolic blood pressure for a random sample of 10 patients.

To construct a 95% Confidence Interval, we use the following formula: p hat ± ME for 95% CI If p hat = 0.38 and ME for 95% CI = 0.096, what is CI? Keep the numbers in 3 decimal places. Put the two numbers in ( ) and use a comma, then a space between the two numbers.arrow_forward
