9.73 Majority supports gay marriage An Associated Press article appearing in the New York Times in March 2015 mentioned that “In the late 1980s, support for gay marriage was essentially unheard of in America. Just a quarter century later, it’s now favored by a clear majority of Americans.” The article supports this conclusion by using data from the 2014 General Social Survey, which asked whether homosexuals should have the right to marry. Of the 1690 respondents, 955 agreed. Conduct all five steps of a significance test to see whether the proportion among Americans supporting gay marriage in 2014 is different from 0.5. Use a significance level of 0.05.
