1. US News publishes annual statistics based on the performance and demographic data reported for major universities. Suppose this year, US News releases its publication and finds that only 6% of students at a particular university consider themselves African-American. The response at the University was outrage, and a local student group conducted a comprehensive survey in order to correct the publication that they believe was flawed. Suppose that, out of a sample of 3,496 students, the university found that 487 identified as African-American.
