Two random samples are taken, one from among first-year students and the other from among fourth-year students at a public unive
rsity. both samples are asked if they favor modifying the student honor code. a summary of the sample sizes and number of each group answering yes'' are given below: first-years (pop. 1):fourth-years (pop. 2):n1=86,n2=96,x1=52x2=54 the rejection region for the standardized test statistic:
<span>p1=44/88=.50; p2=57/85=.67.
Under the null hypothesis of no difference, we pool the data to estimate the
common p of (44+57)/(88+85)=.584.
The test statistic is (.67-.50)/sqrt[(.584)(1-.584)(1/88 + 1/85)]=2.268 (which is stat sig. at a .095 level).</span>
5/20 students in Alessandro's class live in Oakdale, which can be simplified to 1/4. 1/4 in decimal form is 0.25. Now to convert it to a percentage, you just multiply that by 100. So 25% of students in Alessandro's class live in Oakdale.
