A TV pollster believes that 75% of all TV households would be tuned in to Game 6 of 1997 NBA Championship series between the Chicago Bulls and the Utah Jazz. A sample of 1000 TV households was selected and 722 indicated they were tuned into the game. Find the point estimate for the proportion of households tuned into the game.

The best point estimate for the population proportion p is the sample proportion, which is x / n.

Sample proportion = 722/1000 = .722 (in decimal form)

To find the point estimate for the proportion of households tuned into the game, you need to calculate the sample proportion.

The sample proportion (p̂) is found by dividing the number of households tuned into the game in the sample (722) by the total number of households in the sample (1000):

p̂ = number of households tuned into the game / total number of households

In this case, the point estimate for the proportion of households tuned into the game is:

p̂ = 722 / 1000 = 0.722
