genetic experiment with peas resulted in one sample of offspring
that consisted of 432 green peas and 152 yellow peas.
a. Construct a 90​% confidence interval to estimate of the
percentage of yellow peas.
b. It was expected that​ 25% of the offspring peas would be
yellow. Given that the percentage of offspring yellow peas from the
sample is not​ 25%, do the results
contradict​ expectations?

​(Round to three decimal places as​ needed.)
Part 2
b. Given that the percentage of offspring yellow peas from the
sample is not​ 25%, do the results
contradict​ expectations?
​Yes, the confidence interval does not include​ 0.25, so
the true percentage could not equal​ 25%
​No, the confidence interval includes​ 0.25, so the true
percentage could easily equal​ 25%
