2. Scores in the first and fourth (final) rounds for a sample of 20 golfers who competed in PGA tournaments are shown in the following table (Golfweek, February 14, 2009, and February 28, 2009). Suppose you would like to determine if the mean score for the first round of a PGA Tour event is significantly different than the mean score for the fourth and final round. Does the pressure of playing in the final round cause scores to go up? Or does the increased player concentration cause scores to come down?

A research poll included 1762 randomly selected adults who were asked whether "global warming is a problem that requires immediate government action." Results showed that 975 of those surveyed indicated that immediate government action is required. A news reporter wants to determine whether these survey results constitute strong evidence that the majority (more than 50%) of people believe that immediate government action is required. Complete parts (a) through (c) below. a. What is the best estimate of the proportion of adults who believe that immediate government action is required? The best estimate is ☐ (Round to three decimal places as needed.)
International experience around the world is important in our culture of globalization. According to NAFSA, 54.5% of all American students traveling abroad went to Europe in the 2014-2015 academic year. To determine if there is shift in the proportion of students traveling to Europe, suppose a random sample of 300 students who had studied abroad was taken for the 2015-2016 school year. One-hundred sixty of the students traveled to Europe. a. Conduct a test to determine if the proportion of students traveling to Europe has changed. Be sure to provide a complete write-up. b. Based on the hypothesis test, would you expect 0.545 to be in confidence interval for the proportion? Explain without constructing the interval.
