One big concern of colleges is alcohol abuse by students. The Harvard College Alcohol Study looked at thousands of college students nationwide to assess if students would support stiffer penalties for underage drinking. The study surveyed so many students that we can consider their findings to be that of the entire POPULATION of college students. The study found that 67 percent of college students supported efforts to \"crack down on underage drinking.\" So we can assume that the POPULATION proportion of college students who support a crackdown is 0.67. NMSU administration decides to conduct its own survey of NMSU students with a SRS of 200 students and see if NMSU students feel similarly to the entire population of college students. Verify that the conditions are met so that the central limit theorem can apply to p What is the approximate distribution of p, the proportion of students in NMSU\'s sample who support the crackdown? Give the shape, mean, and standard deviation. The administration of our college finds that 155 of the 200 students in its sample support a crackdown. What is the z-score for the sample proportion of NMSU students who support the crackdown? Remember that NMSU students are a sample of the larger population of all college students. Interpret the z-score with the 68-95-99.7 rule to decide if NMSU students\' opinion is consistent with that of all college students.
