A newspaper infographic titled "Have a Nice Trip" summarized data from a survey of 1,000 U.S. adults who had traveled by air at least once in the previous year. The infographic stated that 36% of respondents admitted to yelling at a complete stranger while traveling. (a) Assuming that the sample was selected to be representative of the population of U.S. adults who have traveled by air at least once in the previous year, what is an estimate of the population proportion who have yelled at a complete stranger while traveling? (b) Calculate the margin of error associated with your estimate in part (a). (Round your answer to four decimal places.) Interpret the margin of error associated with your estimate in part: (a). It is impossible that the estimated population proportion of adults who have traveled by air at least once in the previous year who have yelled at a complete stranger while traveling differs from the true population proportion by more than the value calculated above. It is impossible that the estimated population proportion of adults who have traveled by air at least once in the previous year who have yelled at a complete stranger while traveling differs from the true population proportion by less than the value calculated above. It is unlikely that the estimated population proportion of adults who have traveled by air at least once in the previous year who have yelled at a complete stranger while traveling differs from the true population proportion by less than the value calculated above. It is likely that the estimated population proportion of adults who have traveled by air at least once in the previous year who have yelled at a complete stranger while traveling differs from the true population proportion by the value calculated above.
