In 2011, a U.S. Census report determined that 63% of college students are working students. A researcher thinks this percentage has changed and surveys 180 college students. The researcher reports that 117 of the 180 are working students. Is there evidence to support the researcher's claim at the 1% significance level? Determine the test statistic. Round to two decimal places. z= Find the p-value. Round to four decimal places. p-value =

The university wants to know if the proportion of students who work part-time jobs off-campus has increased. Historically, 40% of college students have full or part-time jobs. A random sample of 250 students reveals that 120 have jobs. Ho: p = 0.40 Ha: p ≠ 0.40 1. What is the test statistic? 2. What is the p-value? 3. How much evidence is there to reject Ho? 4. A very small p-value means.

An education researcher claims that 60% of college students work year-round. In a random sample of 400 college students, 240 say they work year-round. At α=0.05, is there enough evidence to reject the researcher's claim? Complete parts (a) through (e) below. a) Identify the claim and state H0 and Ha. Let p be the population proportion of successes, where a success is a college student who works year-round. State H0: p = 0.60 State Ha: p ≠ 0.60 b) Find the critical value(s) and identify the rejection region(s). c) Find the standardized test statistic z.
