Let p be the population proportion for the following condition. Find the point estimates for p and q.
In a survey of 1055 adults from country A, 171 said that they were not confident that the food they eat in country A is safe.
The point estimate for p. p, is
(Round to three decimal places as needed.)

Respuesta :

Answer:

The point estimate for' p' = 0.16

The point estimate for 'q' = 0.84

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:-

Given data  survey of 1055 adults from country A, 171 said that they were not confident that the food they eat in country A is safe.

The sample size 'n' = 1055

given data 171 said that they were not confident that the food they eat in country A is safe.

given 'x' = 171

The point estimate

[tex]p = \frac{x}{n} = \frac{171}{1055}[/tex]

The point estimate of 'p' =  0.16

The point estimate of q = 1-p

                                      q = 1-0.16 = 0.84

Conclusion:-

The point estimate of 'p' =  0.16

The point estimate of q = 0.84
