Question

A research center claims that

29​%

of adults in a certain country would travel into space on a commercial flight if they could afford it. In a random sample of

1000

adults in that​ country,

33​%

say that they would travel into space on a commercial flight if they could afford it. At

α=0.10​,

is there enough evidence to reject the research​ center's claim?

​(a) Identify the claim and state
H0
and
Ha.
 
Identify the claim in this scenario. Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer box to complete your choice.
​(Type an integer or a decimal. Do not​ round.)
 
A.
No more than
nothing​%

C.
The percentage adults in the country who would travel into space on a commercial flight if they could afford it is not
nothing​%.
 
D.
At least
nothing​%
of adults in the country would travel into space on a commercial flight if they could afford it.
Let p be the population proportion of​ successes, where a success is an adult in the country who would travel into space on a commercial flight if they could afford it. State
H0
and
Ha.
Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer boxes to complete your choice.
​(Round to two decimal places as​ needed.)
