A senator is thinking about running for president. But she will only do so if more than \( 60 \% \) of the voters view her favorably. She gathers some data to see if she has this level of support. Which statistical method would be best for her to use? O Hypothesis test Regression analysis Binomial distribution Confidence interval

To determine if more than \( 60\% \) of voters view her favorably, the senator should use a hypothesis test. Specifically, she can set up a null hypothesis stating that \( 60\% \) or fewer voters view her favorably, and an alternative hypothesis claiming that more than \( 60\% \) do. This method allows her to analyze her sample data to see if there is sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis in favor of her presidential run. A confidence interval could also provide valuable insight. By constructing a confidence interval for the proportion of voters who view her favorably, she can estimate the range within which the true percentage likely falls. If the lower bound of this confidence interval exceeds \( 60\% \), it adds more support for her potential candidacy.
