NASA is conducting an experiment to find out the fraction of people who black out at G forces greater than 6.
Suppose a sample of 1026 people is drawn. Of these people, 523 passed out. Using the data, construct the 99% confidence interval for the population proportion of people who black out at G forces greater than 6. Round your answers to three decimal places.
We have given,
x=523
n=1026
Estimate for sample proportion=0.5097
Level of significance is =0.01
Z critical value(using Z table)=2.576
Confidence interval formula is
=(0.4695,0.5499)
Lower limit for confidence interval=0.470
Upper limit for confidence interval=0.550
