A yearbook company was investigating whether there is a significant difference between two states in the percents of high school students who order yearbooks. From a random sample of 150 students selected from one state, 70 had ordered a yearbook. From a random sample of 100 students selected from the other state, 65 had ordered a yearbook. Which of the following is the most appropriate method for analyzing the results?

D. two-sample z-test for a difference in population proportions

Step-by-step explanation:

The options for the given questions were missing. The options are as follows:

A one-sample z-test for a sample proportion

B one-sample z-test for a population proportion

A

C two-sample z-test for a difference in sample proportions

D two-sample z-test for a difference in population proportions

Solution:

Sample proportions are used to estimate population proportions.

We are given the sample proportion of students from one state who ordered a yearbook = 70/150

We are also given the sample proportion of students from the other state who ordered a yearbook = 65/100

Since there are 2 samples and we want to investigate if there is a difference between 2 population of students,

Therefore, the most appropriate method for analyzing the results is

D. two-sample z-test for a difference in population proportions
