A study found that in a sample of 44 subjects, 9 of agree that children under 6 shouldn’t be taken to nice restaurants.


The 95% confidence interval for p is (0.082, 0.318). Interpret this interval.

95% of the time the proportion of people who believe children under 6 shouldn't be taken to nice restaurants will be between 8.2% and 31.8%.

The population proportion of people who believe children under 6 shouldn't be taken to nice restaurants is between 8.2% and 31.8%.

The probability that the proportion of people who believe children under 6 shouldn't be taken to nice restaurants will be between 8.2% and 31.8% is 95%.

Based on this sample, I am 95% confident that the proportion of people who believe children under 6 shouldn't be taken to nice restaurants is between 8.2% and 31.8%.
