Question

54% of students entering four-year colleges receive a degree within six years. Is this percent smaller for students who play intramural sports? 415 of the 800 students who played intramural sports received a degree within six years. What can be concluded at the 0.05 level of significance?

H0: p = 0.54

Ha: p  [ Select ] ["<", "Not Equal To", ">"]  0.54

p-Value =  [ Select ] ["0.03", "0.23", "0.06", "0.11"]             

[ Select ] ["Fail to Reject Ho", "Reject Ho"]           

Conclusion: There is  [ Select ] ["statistically significant", "insufficient"]            evidence to make the conclusion that the population proportion of college students who play intramural sports that receive a degree within six years is less than 0.54.

p-Value Interpretation: If the proportion of college students who play intramural sports that receive a degree within six yeas is equal to [ Select ] ["0.52", "0.54", "0.48", "0.50"]and if another study was done with a new randomly selected collection of 800 college students who play intramural sports, then there is a  [ Select ] ["6", "23", "11", "3", "50"] percent chance that the proportion who receive a degree within six years for this new sample would be less than [ Select ]  ["0.54", "0.52", "0.50", "0.48"] .

Level of significance interpretation: If the proportion of college students who play intramural sports that receive a degree within six years is equal to   [ Select ]  ["0.50", "0.48", "0.52", "0.54"]  and if a new study was done with a new randomly selected collection of 800 students who play intramural sports then there would be a [ Select ] ["5", "50", "54", "10"]percent chance that this new study would result in the false conclusion that the proportion of college students who play intramural sports that receive a degree within six years is less than 0.54.
