<u>Answer-</u>

<em>It </em><em>is reasonable</em><em> that the state education department claims the percentage for the entire state is 63%.</em>

<u>Solution-</u>

153 out of the 258 high school students surveyed at a local school said they went outside more during school hours as elementary school students than they do now as high school students.

Here,

x = 153,

n = 258,

Then,

\text{sample proportion}=p=\dfrac{153}{258}=0.5930=59.30\%

And,

\text{Margin Error}=2\times \sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}

Putting the values,

\text{ME}=2\times \sqrt{\dfrac{(0.5930)(1-0.5930)}{258}}\\\\=2\times \sqrt{\dfrac{(0.5930)(0.407)}{258}}\\\\=2\times \sqrt{\dfrac{0.2414}{208}}\\\\=2\times 0.0341\\\\=0.0682\\\\=6.82\%

The interval would be,

=(59.30-6.82,\ 59.30+6.82)\\\\=(52.48,\ 66.12)

As population proportion p=63% lies in this interval, so it is reasonable.
