You may need to use the appropriate appendix table or technology to answer this question.

Minnesota had the highest turnout rate of any state for the 2016 presidential election.† Political analysts wonder if turnout in rural Minnesota was higher than turnout in the urban areas of the state. A sample shows that 657 of 876 registered voters from rural Minnesota voted in the 2016 presidential election, while 378 out of 525 registered voters from urban Minnesota voted.


(a)


Formulate the null and alternative hypotheses that can be used to test whether registered voters in rural Minnesota were more likely than registered voters in urban Minnesota to vote in the 2016 presidential election. (Letp
1 = the population proportion of voters in rural Minnesota who voted in the 2016 election andp
2 = the population proportion of voters in urban Minnesota who voted in the 2016 election.)



H0: p1 − p2 ≤ 0

Ha: p1 − p2 > 0

H0: p1 − p2 = 0

Ha: p1 − p2 ≠ 0

H0: p1 − p2 ≠ 0

Ha: p1 − p2 = 0

H0: p1 − p2 ≥ 0

Ha: p1 − p2 <>

H0: p1 − p2 <>

Ha: p1 − p2 = 0






(b)


What is the proportion of sampled registered voters in rural Minnesota that voted in the 2016 presidential election?





(c)


What is the proportion of sampled registered voters in urban Minnesota that voted in the 2016 presidential election?





(d)
