Question

A high school guidance counsulor has a pamphlet that says that 35% of all high school students go to a community college after graduation. In a survey of 125 randomly selected high school seniors, 56 replied that they planned to go to a community college in the fall. Use a 95% confidence interval to test and see if the pamphlet needs updating.

Which of these facts would tell us that the pamphlet needs to be updated?

  • If an appropriate confidence interval contains 35%.
  • If the sample proportion is different from 35%.
  • If an appropriate confidence interval contains the sample proportion.
  • If the sample proportion is the same as 35%.
  • If an appropriate confidence interval does not contain 35%.
  • If an appropriate confidence interval does not contain the sample proportion.



In order to use a confidence interval to test whether the pamphlet needs to be updated, what conditions must be checked? Select all that apply.

  • The number of students in the sample who said they plan to go to community college, nˆp=56np^=56 students, needs to be at least 10.
  • 35% of the sample, np≈44np≈44 students, needs to be at least 10.
  • (100-35)% of the sample, n(1−p)≈81n(1-p)≈81 students, need to have said no, they do not plan to go to a community college.
  • The number of students in the sample who said they do not plan to go to community college, n(1−ˆp)=69n(1-p^)=69 students, needs to be at least 10.
  • (100-35)% of the sample, n(1−p)≈81n(1-p)≈81 students, needs to be at least 10.
  • The total population of all high school seniors needs to be more than 20n=2,50020n=2,500
  • 35% of the sample, np≈44np≈44 students, need to have said yes, they plan to go to a community college.
  • The total population of all high school seniors needs to be at least n=125n=125
  • 35% of all high school seniors needs to be at least n=125n=125



What proportion of high school students surveyed plan to go to a community college in the fall? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a percent.

%

Based on this sample, use your calculator to construct a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all high school seniors who plan to go to a community college in fall. Round your answers to the nearest tenth of a percent.

(%,%)

Which of the following are true? Select all that apply.

  • The confidence interval we found contains 35%.
  • The sample proportion is the same as the 35% shown in the pamphlet.
  • The confidence interval we found is entirely to the left of 35%.
  • The sample proportion is different from the 35% shown in the pamphlet.
  • The confidence interval we found is entirely to the right of 35%.



Should the pamphlet be updated?

  • Yes, because the sample proportion is not equal to 35%.
  • Yes, because we are 95% confident that the population proportion is now different from 35%.
  • No, because we are 95% confident that the population proportion is still 35%.
  • No, because we do not have enough evidence to conclude that the population proportion is now different from 35%.
  • Yes, because do not have enough evidence to conclude that the population proportion is still 35%.
  • Yes, because we found that high school seniors are 95% confident that they will attend a community college in fall.
  • No, because the sample proportion is equal to 35%.
