Question

Transcribed Image Text:Suppose that insurance companies did a survey. They randomly surveyed 450 drivers and found that 300 claimed to always buckle up. We are interested in the population proportion of drivers
who claim to always buckle up.
NOTE: If you are using a Student's t-distribution, you may assume that the underlying population is normally distributed. (In general, you must first prove that assumption, though.)
O Part (a)

Transcribed Image Text:A Part (d)
Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion that claim to always buckle up.
(i) State the confidence interval. (Round your answers to four decimal places.)
(ii) Sketch the graph.
