[yesno] it [would] be unusual  for a commuter to drive 230 miles in a week because the value is [within] the [interval].

The 95% cоnfidence intervаl fоr а pоpulаtion mean is ([x], [y]).  Based on this interval, what is the margin of error, E?    Enter your response to one decimal place in the space provided below

A survey оf 1731 rаndоmly selected Cаlifоrniа drivers showed that 532 of them had received a parking ticket in the last five years.  Construct the 95% confidence interval for the proportion of California drivers that had received a parking ticket in the last 5 years.    a. What is the point estimate of the proportion of California Drivers who have received a parking ticket in the last 5 years?  Round to three decimal places.  [answera] b. Does the sample meet the conditions to calculate the confidence interval for the proportion?           [answerb] because the sample is random, the sample is less than 5% of the population and [answerc]. c.  Use the appropriate formula to find the margin of error, rounded to three decimal places.  Remember to round off only at the end.  [answerd] d. Using the point estimate and the margin of error from part c,  find the 95% confidence interval for the proportion of California drivers who have received a parking ticket in the last five years.  Round to three decimal places.  [answere]
