Question:

Hard times According to a study published by the Guardian in 2018, around 7.7% of workers will work at least two jobs to pay their bills.

We assume this number was calculated based on a random sample of 1000 workers.

a) Estimate the true percentage of workers who will work at least two jobs by constructing a 95% confidence interval.

b) A pundit on a TV news show claimed that only 5.8% of workers work at least two jobs. Use your confidence interval to test whether his claim is plausible given the study findings.
