Since you have posted a question with multiple sub-parts, we will solve first three sub-parts for you. To get remaining sub-part solved please repost the complete question and mention the sub-parts to be solved.
a.
A study is conducted to determine whether the proportion of voters who prefer Democratic candidate is significantly different from . A sample of 97 voters is considered in which 71 have preferred Democratic candidate.
