Doctors were trying to see how frequently patients survived who had a heart attack, had CPR administered by a paramedic, then went to the hospital. After collecting data on 50 such patients, they found that 11 survived and 39 had died. Previously it was believed that 30% of these patients survive. Would you agree that the survival rate is 30%?
