. Campus bookstores have increased the number of digital
textbooks this school year, as
students weaned on Facebook and iPads seek
virtual alternatives to heavy tomes. Digital
textbooks are projected to account for
approximately 13% of course materials sold by the fall
of 2012, compared with just 3 percent of
the $5.85 billion sold last year, according to the
National Association of College Stores.
How accurate is the claim of 13%? Is it too high or
too low an estimate? In a random sample of
260 college course materials, 15% of the sample
course materials were digital. But is this
sample percentage significant enough to contradict
the claim that the true population
percentage is 13%? (Use a 10% significance level.)
