A genetic experiment with peas resulted in one sample of
offspring that consisted of 448 green peas and 167 yellow
peas.
a. Construct a 90% confidence interval to estimate of the
percentage of yellow peas.
b. It was expected that 25% of the offspring peas would be yellow.
Given that the percentage of offspring yellow peas is not 25%, do
the results contradict expectations?
The data given to the right includes data from 43 candies, and 6 of them are red. The company that makes the candy claims that 29% of its candies are red. Use the sample data to construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the percentage of red candies. What do you conclude about the claim of 29%?
Construct a 95 % confidence interval estimate of the population
percentage of candies that are red.
