17% of all college students volunteer their time. Is the percentage of college students who are volunteers different for students receiving financial aid? Of the 351 randomly selected students who receive financial aid, 74 of them volunteered their time. What can be concluded at the αα = 0.10 level of significance?   a. test statistic  b. p-value c. Thus, the final conclusion is that ... a. The data suggest the population proportion is not significantly different from 17% at αα = 0.10, so there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the percentage of financial aid recipients who volunteer is equal to 17%. b. The data suggest the population proportion is not significantly different from 17% at αα = 0.10, so there is insufficient evidence to conclude that the percentage of financial aid recipients who volunteer is different from 17%. c. The data suggest the populaton proportion is significantly different from 17% at αα = 0.10, so there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the percentage of financial aid recipients who volunteer is different from 17%.

Question

17% of all college students volunteer their time. Is the percentage of college students who are volunteers different for students receiving financial aid? Of the 351 randomly selected students who receive financial aid, 74 of them volunteered their time. What can be concluded at the αα = 0.10 level of significance?

 

a. test statistic 

b. p-value

c.

Thus, the final conclusion is that ...

a. The data suggest the population proportion is not significantly different from 17% at αα = 0.10, so there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the percentage of financial aid recipients who volunteer is equal to 17%.

b. The data suggest the population proportion is not significantly different from 17% at αα = 0.10, so there is insufficient evidence to conclude that the percentage of financial aid recipients who volunteer is different from 17%.

c. The data suggest the populaton proportion is significantly different from 17% at αα = 0.10, so there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the percentage of financial aid recipients who volunteer is different from 17%.
