A research center claims that at least 4545% of adults in a certain country think the government is not aggressive enough in pursuing people who cheat on their taxes. In a random sample of 700700 adults from that country, 3939% say that the government is not aggressive enough in pursuing people who cheat on their taxes. At alphaαequals=0.010.01, is there enough evidence to reject the center's claim? Complete parts (a) through (e) below.

So the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level given we have so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 1% of significance the proportion of interst is significantly lower than 0.45 and the claim is not appropiate

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

n=700 represent the random sample taken

estimated proportion of interest

is the value that we want to test

represent the significance level

Confidence=99% or 0.99

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

represent the p value (variable of interest)  

Concepts and formulas to use  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the true proportion is at least 0.45.:  

Null hypothesis:  

Alternative hypothesis:  

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statistic, and the is given by:  

(1)  

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion is significantly different from a hypothesized value .

Calculate the statistic  

Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:  

Statistical decision  

It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.  

The significance level provided . The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.  

Since is a lef tailed test the p value would be:  

So the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level given we have so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 1% of significance the proportion of interst is significantly lower than 0.45 and the claim is not appropiate

answer: the answer is one

step-by-step explanation:

pemdas, in this situation there is no parenthesis or exponents so you go to multiplication, 1x1=1, then division 1/1= 1 then addition 1+1=2 then subtraction 2-1=1
