One urban affairs sociologist claims that the proportion, p, of adult residents of a particular city who have been victimized by a criminal is at least 50%. A random sample of 180 adult residents of this city were questioned, and it was found that 76 of them had been victimized by a criminal. Based on these data, can we reject the sociologist's claim at the 0.05 level of significance? Perform a one-tailed test. Then complete the parts below. Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places and round your answers as specified in the table. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a) State the null hypothesis H, and the alternative hypothesis H . p Ho :0 H :0 (b) Determine the type of test statistic to use. (Choose one) ▼ D=0 OSO (c) Find the value of the test statistic. (Round to three or more decimal places.) O

Are American men or women more into online dating? Researchers from a pop culture magazine conducted a study to see if there is a difference in the proportion of men and women under 30 that use online dating sites. They collected independent random samples of 96 women and 88 men, ranging from 18-30 years old, from across the US. Of the women, 67 reported using online dating sites, while 62 of the men reported using online dating sites. Assume the subjects responded honestly.
