Question 3 (Unit 1). It is claimed that 75% of Americans support government policies to protect the environment. Of a random sample of 100 Americans, 69% support government policies. Now, answer the following questions. a. What kind of descriptive measure are we dealing with here (mean, variance, or proportion)? b. What is the population in this example? c. What is the sample in this example? d. What is the population parameter in this example? e. What is the sample statistic in this example? f. What does 75% represent in this example? g. What does 69% represent in this example? h. Explain how the sample estimate can be used to test the claim, assuming that the standard error of the sample estimate is 2%. Do you reject (or fail to reject) the claim? Show your calculations.
