A)

The student government claims that 84% of all students favor an increase in student fees to buy indoor potted plants for the classrooms. A random sample of 12 students produced 2 in favor of the project. What is the probability that 2 or fewer in the sample will favor the project, assuming the student government's claim is correct? (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

B)

Do the the data support the student government's claim, or does it seem that the percentage favoring the increase in fees is less than 84%?

(1)The data seem to indicate that the percent favoring the increase in fees is greater than 84%.

(2)The data do not give us any indication that the percent favoring the increase in fees differs from 84%.

(3)The data seem to indicate that the percent favoring the increase in fees is less than 84%.

(4)The data seem to indicate that the percent favoring the increase in fees is equal to 84%.
