Suppose that the Federal Communications Commission would like to determine whether or not Americans have internet capable of supporting remote online instruction. A local cable company contends that 88% of the people in your community have internet capable of facilitating remote instruction. a. Write the null and alternative hypothesis to test the cable company's claim. Write both hypotheses in symbols and in sentences. b: Suppose that you survey 750 residents of your community. Do you have the requirements met to run the test? Justify your reasoning in complete sentences. c. Suppose that 620 people have internet that will support remote instruction. Find the test statistic and p-value for the test. d. Suppose that a=.05. Using the p-value method, what is the conclusion to the test? Justify your reasoning using your findings. State all of your answers in complete sentences.

According to the Pew Research Center,on the propotion of the American population who use only a cellular telephone (landline) is 0.37. Jason conducts a survey of one hundred fifty 20 to 24 year olds who live on their own and finds that 73 do not have a landline to their home. Does this provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the proportion of 20 to 24 year olds who live on their own and don't have a landline is greater than 0.37? Use a=0.10 level of significance. A) Verify that nP0(1-P0)>10 and n< 0.05N (Assume the population sizes is N=40 million) B) State the appropiate null and alternative hypotheses. C) Indicate whether the hypothesis is left, right, or two- tailed.

The National Association of Realtors estimates that 23% of all homes purchased in 2004 were considered investment properties. If a sample of 800 homes sold in 2004 is obtained and it was noted that 248 homes were to be used as investment property, would this be unusual? Answer either "yes" or "no" and provide the justification for your answer.
In recent years, many states have enacted tougher voter identification laws requiring a government issued photo ID. Proponents claim that these laws are necessary to reduce voter fraud. Opponents claim that voter fraud is rare and that since as many as 11% of eligible voters do not have the required identification, these tougher laws will discourage millions of minorities and low-income Americans from voting. The Washington Post conducted a national poll (July 7-19, 2012) and found that 1558 out of 2064 adults supported the tougher voter ID laws. 1)Construct a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of adults who approve of tougher voter ID laws. Document your work in the space provided below. Document how you computed the margin of error and the confidence interval in the space provided below. Round all numbers to 4 decimal places. 2)Is it likely that three-fourths of adults approve of these new laws?
