The document presents a statistical problem regarding survey data on the percentage of adults from various countries who favor building new nuclear power plants. It involves a hypothesis test comparing the proportions of adults from Country A and Country B.**Task Details:**1. **State the Claim and Hypotheses:** The claim: "The proportion of adults in Country A who favor building new nuclear power plants in their country is the same as the proportion of adults from Country B who favor building new nuclear power plants in their country." Let \( p_1 \) represent the proportion of adults from Country A and \( p_2 \) represent the proportion from Country B. - Null Hypothesis (\( H_0 \)): \( p_1 = p_2 \) - Alternative Hypothesis (\( H_a \)): \( p_1 \neq p_2 \)2. **Standardized Test Statistic:** Calculate the standardized test statistic \( z \) and round to two decimal places as needed.3. **P-Value Calculation:** Determine the P-value and round it to three decimal places as necessary.4. **Decision Making:** Decide whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis based on the P-value and significance level (\( \alpha = 0.06 \)).5. **Conclusion on Original Claim:** Choose the correct conclusion based on the significance level: - A. No, at the 6% significance level, there is sufficient evidence to reject the claim. - B. Yes, at the 6% significance level, there is insufficient evidence to reject the claim. - C. Yes, at the 6% significance level, there is sufficient evidence to reject the claim. - D. No, at the 6% significance level, there is insufficient evidence to reject the claim.6. **Comparison Question:** Determine whether the proportion of adults from Country A is the same, different, greater than, or less than that from Country B.**Graph Explanation:**The accompanying bar chart displays percentages of adults in various countries who favor building new nuclear power plants:- **Country A**: 49%- **Country B**: 50%- **Country C**: 48%- **Country D**: 33%The data is represented with different colored bars for each country, clearly showing the comparative proportions.

An athletic shoemaker wants to test if their new running shoe specially made for sprinting is better than the competition. To do this, they recruit 35 NCAA sprinters and time their 100-meter dash wearing the company's shoe and then time their 100-meter dash again wearing the competitor’s shoe. The difference of these times is then calculated asTimecompany.shoe−Timecompetitor.shoe. The sample mean difference in times is 0.53 seconds and the sample standard deviation is 1.1.
