Several years ago, 39% of students in a university were satisfied with the quality of education they received. A recent survey asked 1065 students and 459 of them indicated that they were satisfied. Give your answers to 3 decimal places for the questions below. >Find and interpret a 99% confidence interval for the proportion of student population who are satisfied with the quality of education in the recent poll. >Through hypothesis test method, assess whether students’ attitudes toward the quality of education have changed in the recent poll. Use the significance level α=0.01.

Find the sample proportion of students who like statistics. b. Find the standard error of the estimate and interpret it. c. Find a 95% confidence interval using the large-sample formula. Is it appropriate to use the ordinary large-sample confidence interval to obtain an estimation for the population proportion? d. Why is it no appropriate to use the ordinary large-sample confidence interval in part c?
