StatisticsnSeveral years ago, 51% of parents with children in grades K-12 were satisfied with the quality of education the students receive. A recent poll found that 495 of 1,095 parents with children in grades K-12 were satisfied with the quality of education the students receive.

have changed.
B. Since the interval contains the proportion stated in the null hypothesis, there is insufficient evidence that parents' attitudes toward the quality of education
have changed.
