A random sample of 830 adult television viewers showed that 52% planned to watch sporting event X. The margin of error is 3 percentage points with a 95% confidence. Does the confidence interval support the claim that the majority of adult television viewers plan to watch sporting event X? Why?
◦ No; the confidence interval means that we are 95% confident that the population proportion of adult television viewers who plan to watch sporting event X is between 50.5% and 53.5%. The lower limit of the confidence interval is just too close to 50% to say for sure.
◦ Yes; the confidence interval means that we are 95% confident that the population proportion of adult television viewers who plan to watch sporting event X is between 49% and 55%. Since the confidence interval is mostly above 50% it is likely that the true proportion is greater than 50%.
◦ No; the confidence interval means that we are 95% confident that the population proportion of adult television viewers who plan to watch sporting event X is between 49% and 55%. The true proportion could be less than 50%.
◦ Yes; the confidence interval means that we are 95% confident that the population proportion of adult television viewers who plan to watch sporting event X is between 50.5% and 53.5%. This is strong evidence that the true proportion is greater than 50%
