One survey showed that among 785 randomly selected subjects who completed four years of college, 18.3% smoke and a 98% confidenc

e interval for the true percentage of smokers among all people who completed four years of college is 15.1% to 21.6%. Based on the result, the smoking rate for those with four years of college appears to be substantially different than the 27% rate for the general population.

Answer

a. True

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on this survey we estimate that about 18.3\% of the college students smokes. And a 98\% confidence interval is [15.1\% ; 21.6\%].  So we know that our estimative for the smoking rate is in the confidence interval with 98\% certainty. We also know the estimative for the smoking rate in the general population is 27\%. So we can write the two possible hypothesis:

H_0 = Smoking rate is equal to 27\%.

H_1 = Smoking rate is not equal to 27\%.

We will reject the null hypothesis (H_0) if the estimate doesn't fall into the confidence interval for the college students smoking rate.

Since this condition holds we reject the null hypothesis. So with 98\% certainty we say that the smoking rate for the general population is different than the smoking rate for the college students.
