Activity 3: I Can In each item, complete the set of solutions. 1. The iCare Center for Internet \& Society at Kaliwanagan Province recently conducted a study analyzing the privacy management habits of \( 80 \% \) teen internet users. In a group of 50 teens, 13 are reported to have more than 500 friends on Facebook. Determine the value of \( \boldsymbol{p} \) and sample proportion \( \hat{\boldsymbol{p}} \). Solution: \[ \begin{aligned} \boldsymbol{p} & =\_\ldots \% \\ & =\_ \text {_ } \end{aligned} \] \[ \begin{array}{l} \hat{p}=\frac{x}{n} \\ \hat{p}= \\ \widehat{p}= \end{array} \]

Lenhart A, "Teens, Technology, and Friendships," Pew Research Center; pewresearch.org, August 6, 2015. (a) Find a 95% confidence interval for the proportion, p, of all US teens who have made a new friend online. Round your answers to three decimal places. The 95% confidence interval is (b) Give the best estimate for p and give the margin of error for the estimate. Round your answers to three decimal places.

In 2018 , the Pew Internet \& American Life Project asked 743 teens aged 13 to 17 several questions about their attitudes toward social media. The results showed that 602 say social media makes them feel more connected to what is going on in their friends' lives; 513 say social media helps them interact with a more diverse group of people; and 275 feel pressure to post content that will get a lot of likes and comments. a. Develop a point estimate of the proportion of teens aged 13 to 17 who say social media makes them feel more connected to what is going on in their friends' lives. b. Develop a point estimate of the proportion of teens aged 13 to 17 who say social media helps them interact with a more diverse group of people. c. Develop a point estimate of the proportion of teens aged 13 to 17 who feel pressure to post content that will get a lot of likes and comments.
