Question

**Employment Outcomes of College Graduates**

The figure to the right shows the results of a survey in which 2500 college graduates from the year 2016 were asked questions about employment. The image provides data on the proportion of graduates and their employment outcomes. Construct 95% confidence intervals for the population proportion of college students who gave each response.

**The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of college students who:**

1. **Accepted a job at their first employer for 3 or more years:**
**(Round to three decimal places as needed)**

2. **Obtained an apprenticeship or internship:**
**(Round to three decimal places as needed)**

3. **Were employed in their field of study:**
**(Round to three decimal places as needed)**

4. **Are employed:**
**(Round to three decimal places as needed)**

5. **Prefer to work for a large company:**
**(Round to three decimal places as needed)**

**Graph Explanation**

The figure on the right contains a bar chart entitled "Employment Outcomes of College Graduates," specifies several categories with the corresponding proportions of graduates. The categories depicted and their corresponding proportions are as follows:

- **Employed:** 65%
- **Employed in field of study:** 54%
- **Obtained an apprenticeship or internship:** 51%
- **Accepted a job at first employer for 3 or more years:** 37%
- **Prefer to work for a large company:** 14%

The chart visually represents these proportions using bars of different lengths, making it easy to compare the various outcomes of college graduates from the survey.

By interpreting this data, one can gain insights into recent employment trends among college graduates, such as the percentage that secured jobs in their field of study, participated in internships, or expressed a preference for working at large companies.
