research center claims that 24% of adults in a certain country would travel into space on a commercial flight if they could afford it. In a random sample of 1200 adults in that country, 26% say that they would travel into space on a commercial flight if they could afford it. At α=0.01, is there enough evidence to reject the research center's claim? Identify the claim and state H0 and Ha.

The number of Muslims continues to grow throughout the world, and they are currently thesecond-largest religious group in the world. Knowing that this group has been the target of falsebeliefs about their religion, a researcher is interested in whether people who have moreinteractions with Muslim people are less likely to believe negative statements about Islam. To dothis, they surveyed a large sample of participants across Western Europe and asked themquestions about how frequently they interact with Muslim people as well as how much theyagreed with negative statements about Islam. What statistical test should be used to determine ifthere if how frequently survey participants interact with Muslim people predicts how likely theyare to agree with a negative statement about Islam? Assume parametric assumptions are met. A. Is this a relationship test or a difference test? Explain your rationale. B.
A public research company says that 63% of U.S. adults are concerned about their jobs because of the current state of the economy. A social services group surveys 500 adults and has a result of 70%. Using an alpha of.05 test the hypothesis claim of 63%
A researcher is concerned that his new antihypertensive medication may be causing insomnia in some of his patients. Suppose he gathers an SRS of 65 patients treated with the study drug with a sample average of 6.6 hours of sleep and a σ=1.1. Assuming that insomnia can be quantified as an average of 4.5 hours of sleep, can we determine with 95% confidence that his drug avoids diagnosis of insomnia as a side-effect?
According to a certain government agency for a large country, the proportion of fatal traffic accidents in the country in which the driver had a positive blood alcohol concentration (BAC) is 0.33.Suppose a random sample of 109 traffic fatalities in a certain region results in 47that involved a positive BAC. Does the sample evidence suggest that the region has a higher proportion of traffic fatalities involving a positive BAC than the country at the α=0.05 level of significance?
A sample of 100 randomly selected children under the age of 12 showed that the average amount of time a child spends watching TV every day is 2.7 hours. The value of test statistic ( along with decision) to test the claim that the average time a child spends watching is greater than 2.6 hours ( assume alpha = 0.6 and alpha 0.01), is:
