1. A recent report on elementary schools in Tarrant county claimed that 13% of elementary students typically walk to school. Luka thinks that the proportion is different than 0.13 at his large elementary school. Luka surveys a random sample of 80 students from his school and finds that 17 typically walk to school. Do the data provide convincing evidence that Luka's school has a different proportion of walkers than claimed by the report? Use a = 0.01.

In anticipation of an upcoming election, officials in Rising Falls County are looking at the distance from each voter's home to that voter's nearest polling station. Assume that the population of all such distances for voters in Rising Falls County is approximately normally distributed. An article for the newspaper Politically Sound claimed that the mean of this population is 5.15 km. You want to test this claim, so you select a random sample of 23 Rising Falls County voters, and for each you record the distance the voter lives from their nearest polling station. Follow the steps below to construct a 90% confidence interval for the population mean of all the distances voters in Rising Falls County live from their nearest polling station. Then state whether the confidence interval you construct contradicts the reporter's claim. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.)
