p1 = 66/100 = 0.66 q1 = 34/100
p2 = 62/100 = 0.62 q2 = 38/100
normal because p1, p2, q1, q2 all exceed 10
I think for this test you would use the 2 proportion z test

asked 06/12/23A recent drug survey showed an increase in use of drugs and alcohol among local high school seniors as compared to the national percent. Suppose that a survey of 100 local seniors and 100 national seniors is conducted to see if the percentage of drug and alcohol use is higher locally than nationally. Locally, 66 seniors reported using drugs or alcohol within the past month, while 62 national seniors reported using them. Conduct a hypothesis test at the 5% level.
NOTE: If you are using a Student's t-distribution for the problem, including for paired data, you may assume that the underlying population is normally distributed. (In general, you must first prove that assumption, though.)
What is the p-value? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
p1 = 66/100 = 0.66 q1 = 34/100
p2 = 62/100 = 0.62 q2 = 38/100
normal because p1, p2, q1, q2 all exceed 10
I think for this test you would use the 2 proportion z test
