Politicians are interested in knowing the opinions of their constituents on important issues. One administrative assistant to a senator claims that more than 63% of adult women favor stricter gun laws. A recent telephone survey of 1026 adults by IBR Polls found that 65.9% of adult women favored stricter gun laws. Test the claim that significantly more than 63% of adult women favor stricter gun laws. Use a 5% significance level.
Navigate to Lesson 30, Section 3, and use the correct density tool to test the claim. Note: This problem tests a hypothesis about one proportion. Pay attention that you have the tool with the correct formula for the sampling error of one proportion. Find the probability-value. Note: There are three different probability values (three different pixels associated with the flag value) associated with the flag values. Look at each of the probability values and choose the one that is in the list below.
A. p-value = 0.058
B. p-value = 0.029
C. p-value = 0.942
D. p-value = 0.971
