A researcher takes a random sample of 2,496 drivers and finds that 1,603 put their phone in "drive mode” to not be distracted while driving. A 90% confidence interval for the proportion of drivers who use "drive mode” on their phones is (0.626, 0.658). Which statement correctly interprets the interval?
Answer
A
The researcher can be 90% confident that 64% of all drivers will use “drive mode” while driving.
B
There is a 90% probability that the proportion of drivers who use “drive mode” lies between 0.626 and 0.658.
C
The researcher can be 90% confident that the interval from 0.626 to 0.658 captures the true proportion of all drivers who use “drive mode.”
D
If this procedure is repeated many, many times, the true proportion of drivers who use “drive mode” will be captured 90% of the time.
