Explanation of Solution
It is given in the question that observers in Texas watched children at play in eight communities. Let us check the conditions first as,
Random condition: It is satisfied as children are randomly selected from the population.
Independent condition: It is satisfied as we can assume that the sample is independent.
Success/failure condition: It is satisfied because both are greater than ten as,
Thus, all the conditions are satisfied. Therefore, now, to find the confidence interval we will use the calculator
Thus, the confidence interval will be as:
Thus, we conclude that we are
