iii. . 109 ± 2(. 0650) = (0.044,0.174)

iv. .20 is not contained within the confidence interval and based on 1g, this makes
sense because we reject that the p-value is equal to .20
i.

Method p: event proportion

Normal approximation method is used for this analysis.

N Event Sample p 95% CI for p

Descriptive Statistics 92 76 0.826087 (0.748635, 0.903539)

Null hypothesis H₀: p = 0.2

v. 20 is contained in the confidence interval. This makes sense because the Ho was
not rejected meaning that µ would never equal 20, therefore can be found inside
the confidence interval
