Proportion of automobiles


In order to be effective, reflective highway signs must be picked up by the automobile's headlights. To do so at long distances requires that the beams be on "high". A study conducted by highway engineers reveals that 45 of 50 randomly selected cars in a high-traffic- volume area have the headlights on low beam.

(a) Find a point estimate for p, the proportion of automobiles in this type area that use low beams.

(b) Find a 90% confidence interval on p.

(c) Test

Ho : p = .95 vs H1 : p < .95 at the significance level of 0.05

(d) How large a sample is required to estimate p within .02 with 95% confidence?
