A college prep school advertises that their students are more prepared to succeed in college than other schools. To verify this, they categorize GPA’s into 4 groups and look up the proportion of students at a state college in each category. They find that 7% have a 0-0.99, 21% have a 1-1.99, 37% have a 2-2.99, and 35% have a 3-4.00 in GPA. They then take a random sample of 200 of their graduates at the state college and find...
