Insurance companies are interested in knowing the population percent of drivers who always buckle up before riding in a car. They randomly survey 399 drivers and find that 283 claim to always buckle up. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the population proportion that claim to always buckle up.
Z for 90% confidence interval = Z0.05 = 1.645
p = 283 / 399 =0.7093
Confidence interval
= (0.6719 , 0.7467)
