A recent drug survey showed an increase in use of drugs and alcohol among local high school students as compared to the national percent. Suppose that a survey of 100 local youths and 100 national youths is conducted to see if the percentage of drug and alcohol use is higher locally than nationally. Locally, 65 seniors reported using drugs or alcohol within the past month, while 61 national seniors reported using them. Conduct a hypothesis test at the 5% level.

Answer:

The answer is "0.586"

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the solution to the given question:  

[tex]z= \frac{0.65-0.61}{\sqrt{\frac{0.65 \times 0.35}{100}+\frac{0.61 \times 0.39}{100}}}[/tex]

  [tex]= \frac{0.04}{\sqrt{\frac{0.2275}{100}+\frac{0.2379}{100}}}\\\\= \frac{0.04}{\sqrt{0.002275+0.002379}}\\\\= \frac{0.04}{\sqrt{0.004654}}\\\\= \frac{0.04}{0.0682202316}\\\\=0.586336327\\\\[/tex]
