A USA Today article claims that the proportion of people who believe global warming is a serious issue is 0.55, but given the number of people you've talked to about this same issue, you believe it is different from 0.55. The hypotheses for this test are Null Hypothesis: p = 0.55, Alternative Hypothesis: p ≠ 0.55. You take a random sample and perform a hypothesis test, getting a p-value of 0.0165. What is the appropriate conclusion? Conclude at the 5%...
A researcher claims that more than 75% of the adults believe in global warming. Ryan conducted a survey on a random sample of 200 adults. The survey showed that 155 adults in the sample believe in global warming. Assume Ryan wants to use a 0.05 significance level to test the researcher’s claim. (a) What is the appropriate hypothesis test to use for this analysis? Please identify and explain why it is appropriate. (b) Identify the null hypothesis and the alternative...

The hypotheses for this test are Null Hypothesis: p ≥ 0.59, Alternative Hypothesis: p < 0.59. If you randomly sample 25 people and 19 of them believe that global warming is a serious issue, what is your test statistic and...
USA Today article claims that the proportion of people who believe global warming is a serious issue is 0.52, but given the number of people you've talked to about this same issue, you believe it is less than 0.52. The hypotheses for this test are Null Hypothesis: p ≥ 0.52, Alternative Hypothesis: p < 0.52.
