Answer:

The point estimated is 0.260

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Sample in which the people have diabetes = 52

Random sample = 200

Significance level = 5%

Based on this, the, estimation point is

= Sample in which the people have diabetes ÷ Random sample

= 52 ÷ 200

= 0.260

hence, the point estimated is 0.260

We simply applied the above formula

And, the same is to be considered
