The trustees of a local school district commission a survey to determine voter opinions about a possible bond measure to fund school upgrades. In a poll of 293 of the district’s 5,019 registered voters, 178 would support the bond measure.

Conduct a hypothesis test to determine if such a bond would pass with the required 55% of the vote. Use a 5% significance level to make your decision.

Which of the following is an appropriate conclusion based on the results?

A. This poll provides strong evidence that the bond measure will pass.

B. This poll suggests that the bond measure will pass with over 60% support from the voters in the district.

C. Over 60% of the people polled support the bond measure, but this is not strong enough evidence to conclude that the bond measure has the required 55% support in the district.

D. This poll suggests that 55% of the district will support the bond measure.
