In general, 60 beats per minute (bpm) is a heart rate that is considered too slow for an adult when at rest and 100 bpm is considered too high. As one way of measuring the stress of Canadian air traffic controllers, heart rates of 173 randomly selected air traffic controllers were measured across Canada. Of this sample of air traffic controllers, 47 had a resting heart rate over 100 bpm. What is the true proportion of air traffic controllers in Canada with resting heart rates over 100 bpm

The true proportion of air traffic controllers in Canada with resting heart rates over 100 bpm is; 0.2717 or 27.17%

We are given;

Sample size; n = 173

Number of people who had a resting heart rate over 100 bpm = 47

Now, formula for true proportion is;

p' = x/n

where;

x represents the number of successes

n represents the sample size.

p′ is the sample proportion which is the point estimate for the true population proportion.

Thus;

p' = 47/173

p' = 0.2717
