Example 115
Example 115: When Mendel conducted his famous genetics experiments with peas, one sample of offspring consisted of 428 green peas and 152 yellow peas. Mendel expected that 25% of the offspring peas would be yellow. Find a 95% confidence interval estimate for the true proportion of yellow peas. Do the results contradict Mendel’s theory?
