Question

In 2001, the polls found that 81% of American adults believed that there was a conspiracy in the death of President Kennedy. Assume a recent poll asked 1160 American adults if they believe there was a conspiracy in the assassination and it found that 897 believe there was a conspiracy. Does the data show that the proportion of Americans who believe in this conspiracy is now lower? Test at the 9% level.

 Check those assumptions:

          1. npnp =  which is       

          2. n(1−p)n(1-p) =  which is       

          3. NN =  which is       

 

    The formula set up of the test statistic is as follows.:  

     (Leave any values that were given as fractions as fractions)


z=pˆ−p√p(1−p)n=z=p̂-pp(1-p)n=

     Final answer for the test statistic from technology.

     Round to 2 decimal places:

     z =
