From a random sample of workers at a large corporation you find that 58% of 200 went on a vacation last year away from home for at least a week. An approximate 95% confidence interval is (0.50, 0.66). Which of the following statements is a correct interpretation?
a. 95% of the coworkers fall in the interval (0.50, 0.66).
b. We are 95% confident that the proportion of coworkers who went on a vacation last year away from home for at least a week is between 50% and 66%.
c. We are 95% confident that between 50% and 66% of the samples will have a proportion near 58%.
d. There is a 95% chance that a random selected coworker has gone on a vacation last year away from home for at least a week.

b. We are 95% confident that the proportion of coworkers who went on a vacation last year away from home for at least a week is between 50% and 66%.

Step-by-step explanation:

A confidence interval at the level of x% for a proportion being between a and b means that we are x% sure that the true proportion of the population is between a and b.

In this problem, we have that:

95% C.I is (0.5, 0.66)

Interpretation: 95% confident that the true proportion is between 0.5 and 0.66.

The correct answer is:

b. We are 95% confident that the proportion of coworkers who went on a vacation last year away from home for at least a week is between 50% and 66%.

describing distributions is one of the key skills you’ll need to earn a high score on the ap statistics exam. if you need proof of this, just flip through some past exam questions, which can be found at the collegeboard website. you’ll notice that the first free response question is almost always a question requiring you to look at a graph and describe it.
