Answer:

The point estimate for the proportion of 18-year-olds who have not graduated from high school in this city is 0.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

The point estimate is the sample proportion.

She draws a random sample of 80 18-year-olds in the city and finds that 20 of them have not graduated from high school.

This means that:

p = \frac{20}{80} = 0.25

The point estimate for the proportion of 18-year-olds who have not graduated from high school in this city is 0.25.
