Question
A newspaper infographic titled "Baby's First Photo Reveal" summarized data from a survey of 1,000 mothers with children under the age of 2. The infographic stated that 84% of moms post new baby photos from the delivery room. This information could be used to provide an estimate of the proportion of new mothers who post pictures on social media from the delivery room. Assume that the sample is representative of the population of mothers with children under the age of 2 years.
Use the five-step process for estimation problems (EMC3) to construct a 99% confidence interval for the proportion of mothers of children under the age of 2 years who post pictures of their new baby on social media from the delivery room. (Use a table or SALT. Round your answers to three decimal places.)
