The U.S. Department of Transportation, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, reported that 77% of all fatally injured automobile drivers were intoxicated. A random sample of 52 records of automobile driver fatalities in a certain county showed that 35 involved an intoxicated driver. Do these data indicate that the population proportion of driver fatalities related to alcohol is less than 77% in Kit Carson County? Use ? = 0.10.

A poll surveyed 503 video gamers, and 106 of them said they prefer playing games on a console rather than a computer. An ex executive at a game console company claims that more than 25% of the gamers prefer consoles. Does the poll provide convincing evidence that he claim is true? Use a = 0.05 level of significance.
I need help writing an appropriate null and alternative hypothesis that could be used to test the claim that p, the population proportion that feels that reality based television shows are a " disturbing" is less that 40%

(Table: TV and Aggressiveness) In a fictional study, a pretest-posttest design was used to examine the influence of a television program on children's aggressiveness. The number of aggressive responses was measured during an observation period both before and after the television program. Calculate the appropriate test statistic to hypothesis test whether or not there is a difference in the number of aggressive behaviors in children after having viewed the television program. Use a = .05 and calculate the test statistic as a two tailed test.

Some people believe that an increase in the chemicals in the environment has led to an increase in the number of abnormalities. A recent study examined 400 randomly selected children and found that 29 of them showed signs of an abnormality. Does this provide evidence that the risk of congenital abnormalities has increase?
