Explanation / Answer

Correct Answer:

A z-test comparing the proportion of males that live on campus to the proportion of females that live on campus

Explanation:

Here, we have to compare the proportion of male and female students who live on campus. This means we have to test whether there is any significant difference in the proportion of male students and female students who live on campus. We know that the sampling distribution of the difference between the two sample proportions follows the normal z distribution. So, here we use the z-distribution or z-test for comparing these two proportions. For comparing two proportions or single proportion, we always use z-test for a population proportion.
