David, a starting player for a major college basketball team, made only 40% of his free throws last season. During the summer he worked on developing a softer shot in the hope of improving his free-throw accuracy. In the first eight games of this season, David made 25 free throws in 40 attempts. Let p be his probability of making each free throw he shoots this season. Construct and interpret a 90% confidence interval for David’s free-throw success.
