Question

Type O-negative blood type is called the universal donor type because it is compatible with any blood type. The American Red Cross reported that the proportion of O-negative blood type in the U.S. is about 7%.  A physician assistant wishes to estimate the proportion, p, of individuals with an O- negative blood type. He conducts a survey and in a random sample of 300 records from a large hospital, 27 were found to have type O-negative blood type.

The sample proportion is _____________.

Give a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of O-negative blood type in this hospital. Interpret your interval with the context.

 

Test if there is strong evidence that the proportion of O- negative blood type from a large hospital is different the national proportion. State your conclusion at 5% significance level.

Which method will you use to perform the test? Choose the correct one.

  1. 1-sample T test
  2. 1-sample Z test
  3. 1-proportion Z test.
  4. 2-proportion Z test

 

             Which distribution will you use here? If you use t distribution, give the degree of freedom. If you use z or normal, give the mean and standard deviation.
