An inspector inspects large truckloads of potatoes to determine the proportion p in the shipment with major defects prior to usi
ng the potatoes to make potato chips. Unless there is clear evidence that this proportion, p, is less than 0.10, he will reject the shipment. He selects a random sample of 200 potatoes from the more than 5000 potatoes on the truck. Twelve of the potatoes sampled are found to have major defects. How would you interpret the meaning of this confidence interval?
