Question:

Professional pollsters are becoming concerned about the growing rate of refusals among potential survey subjects. In analyzing the problem, there is a need to know if the refusal rate is universal or if there is a difference between the rates for central-city residents and those not living in central cities. Specifically, it was found that when 294 central-city residents were surveyed, 28.9% refused to respond. A survey of 1015 residents not in a central city resulted in a 17.1% refusal rate (based on data from "I Hear You Knocking But You Can't Come In," by Fitzgerald and Fuller, Sociological Methods and Research, Vol. 11, No. 1). At the 0.01 significance level, test the claim that the central-city refusal rate is the same as the refusal rate in other areas.
