In a random sample of high school seniors, the proportion who used text messaging was 0.88. In a random sample of high school freshmen, this proportion was 0.68. Researchers found the difference in proportions to be statistically significant and obtained one of the following numbers for the p-value. Which is it? a. 1.5
b. 0.02
c. 0.78
d. 0.30

Option B - 0.02

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, the p-value is used to tell us the probability that a difference of (0.88 – 0.68) which is 0.2 or greater would occur in the distribution of simulated differences. This is created done with the assumption that there is no true difference in the two populations.

Due to the fact that the researchers found the difference in proportions to be statistically significant, hence these results would rarely occur due to just the sampling variability and thus the p-value must be small.

Looking at the options, the p-value in Option (B) will be the correct response,l as it indicates that a difference of 0.2 or more would only occur about 2% of the time by chance alone provided the proportion who text were the same in the population of seniors and the population of freshmen. This resonates well with the claim that the difference in proportions is statistically significant.

Thus, Option B is the correct answer.
