Answer:
The appropriate null hypothesis is 
The appropriate alternative hypothesis is 
Step-by-step explanation:
Exactly a year prior to this poll, in June of 2004, it was estimated that roughly 1 out of every 4 U.S. adults believed (at that time) that the war in Iraq was the most important problem facing the country.
At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is still the same, that is, of
. So

We would like to test whether the 2005 poll provides significant evidence that the proportion of U.S. adults who believe that the war in Iraq is the most important problem facing the U.S. has decreased since the prior poll.
Decreased, so at the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if the proportion is less than 0.25, that is:

Answer:
5.25 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
7 * 0.75 = 5.25
Let's call the number you thought of n. Then what the two steps you took can be written as an equation:

Subtract n to get all of your variables to one side:

At this point, I recommend turning your mixed number into an improper fraction. It will make things easier later on:

Now divide both sides by 11 to get the value of n:
Answer:
10 5
