Question

Police body cameras: A survey of New York State residents asked about police officers having to wear video cameras on duty. The question stated, "Do you agree or disagree that police officers should carry video cameras for the purposes of filming their activities while on duty?" Most (88%) respondents agreed with this statement. Do Californians share the same opinion? A California-based civil rights group conducted a similar survey by randomly selecting 500 California residents, and 425 agreed that police officers should carry video cameras for the purposes of filming their activities while on duty. Conduct a hypothesis test to determine if the proportion of California residents who agree is different from New York residents. Use a 5% significance level to make your decision. Use the applet (at the top of this Checkpoint) to determine the P-value. Which of the following is an appropriate conclusion based on the results?
a. The survey provides strong evidence that the proportion of California residents who agree that police officers should carry video cameras for the purposes of filming their activities while on duty is significantly different from the proportion of New York residents.

b. The survey suggests that the proportion of California residents who agree that police officers should carry video cameras for the purposes of filming their activities while on duty is 85%.

c. Of the California residents surveyed, 85% agree that police officers should carry video cameras for the purposes of filming their activities while on duty, but this is not strong enough evidence to conclude that the proportion of California residents who agree is significantly different from the proportion of New York residents.

d. This survey suggests that 88% of California residents surveyed agree that police officers should carry video cameras for the purposes of filming their activities while on duty.​
