A survey of 500 citizens of a large country revealed that 70 of them believe the government's highest priority should be foreign relations. Obtain a point estimate for the proportion of all citizens in the country who believe the government's highest priority should be foreign relations. Express your answer as a percentage rounded to one decimal place as needed.
“Average adult Americans are about one inch taller, but nearly a whopping 25 pounds heavier than they were in 1960, according to a new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The bad news, says the CDC, is that average BMI (body mass index, a weight-for-height formula used to measure obesity) has increased among adults from approximately 25 in 1960 to 28 in 2002.” Boston is considered one of America’s healthiest cities. Is the weight gain since 1960 similar in Boston? A sample of n = 25 adults suggested a mean increase of 17 pounds with a standard deviation of 8.6 pounds. Is Boston statistically significantly different in terms of weight gain since 1960? Run the appropriate test at a 5% level of significance.
The highway department wants to estimate the proportion of vehicles on a Highway at KM 25 between midnight and 5:00 A.M. The head of the department wants to see how many 18-wheel tractor trailers pass on the road. These estimates will be used to determine highway repairs and construction considerations and in highway patrol planning. The department chief asked investigators to calculate estimates of vehicles at different locations on inter-island roads over the past 7 days. From 3,481 vehicles counted there are 927 are 18-wheel drive. However, out of the total 927, there were 51 vehicles that had accidents so that the sample was calculated based on the results of a reduction in the number of accidents. Specify an approximate point for the proportion of vehicles performingtravel on KM 25 during this time period which is an 18-wheeled vehicle!(Assume the confidence level is 99%). What are the benefits of estimating value estimates in this case (analysis of the answers you have obtained)?
(please do not give solution in image format thanku) The FBI wants to determine the effectiveness of their 10 Most Wanted list. To do so, they need to find out the fraction of people who appear on the list that are actually caught. Step 1 of 2 : Suppose a sample of 1753 suspected criminals is drawn. Of these people, 683 were captured. Using the data, estimate the proportion of people who were caught after being on the 10 Most Wanted list.
In The New Yorker on March 29, 2010 James Surowicki wrote that the 25 million iPhones Apple sold in 2009 represented 2.2 percent of world cell phone purchases.

A statistics professor for STAT 250 wants to investigate how long it takes students to complete Exam 1. The times that it took all 715 STAT 250 students in Spring 2022 were recorded in the data set “Time to Complete Exam 1” found in StatCrunch. The time is recorded in minutes. A student who completed the exam in 50:30 (50 minutes and 30 seconds) would be recorded as 50.5 minutes. Find the proportion of all 50 minutes or more. (X ≥ 50). You can click on the bars of your histogram to help obtain this value. Show the values used for the calculation of the proportion as well as your answer. Round your proportion to four decimal places.

Ms. Duncan’s class wants to estimate how many blades of grass are in a rectangular section of the school yard measuring 25 feet by 40 feet. The students cut 1-inch-by-1-inch squares out of sheets of paper and place these square holes over patches of grass in that section. Each student counts how many blades of grass show through their square hole. On average, the students find 38 blades of grass in each hole. Using this information, determine about how many blades of grass are in that rectangular section. Explain your reasoning.
