Assume that 40% of students at SCC receive A or B’s, 35% receive C’s, and 25% receive D or F’s. A survey of 300 r/s UC Davis students indicates that 100 of them received A or B’s, 130 received C’s, and 70 received D or F’s. Do these results provide strong evidence that the overall percentages of the 3 grade categories at UC Davis are not all the same as the ones at SCC? Perform a hypothesis test and use a p-value to draw and explain your conclusion. (a) Use an appropriate formula to calculate the expected counts. (b) Use an appropriate formula to calculate the test statistic. (c)Use an appropriate table to estimate the p-value. Do not draw any conclusion

Question
Assume that 40% of students at SCC receive A or B’s, 35% receive C’s, and 25% receive
D or F’s. A survey of 300 r/s UC Davis students indicates that 100 of them received A or
B’s, 130 received C’s, and 70 received D or F’s. Do these results provide strong evidence
that the overall percentages of the 3 grade categories at UC Davis are not all the same as
the ones at SCC? Perform a hypothesis test and use a p-value to draw and explain your
conclusion.
(a) Use an appropriate formula to calculate the expected counts.
(b) Use an appropriate formula to calculate the test statistic.
(c)Use an appropriate table to estimate the p-value. Do not draw any conclusion
