Compute the proportion p for your sample


Discuss the below:

The topic of my project is to find out the number of patients that have used In Home Care as their home health agency for more than 2 years. In Home Care's goal is to have over 50% of their patients be with them over 2 years which would demonstrate the staff is providing adequate and satisfying healthcare to their patients.

A. Compute the proportion p (hat) for your sample. Show your computation.

B. Find a 95% confidence interval for p. What is the margin of error in this confidence interval? What is the meaning of this interval with respect to your data and project?

C. Construct and perform a hypothesis test for p at the significance level a = 0.05. What conclusions can you draw from this test?
