In 1971, the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) to the Constitution was proposed. It ultimately failed because not enough states ratified the amendment before the deadline set by Congress. The amendment had seemed headed for quick approval until a movement led by Phyllis Schlafly mobilized homemakers to oppose the amendment in their state legislatures, and the amendment fell three states short of the 38 states needed for ratification. What aspect of US democracy does this scenario illustrate? a. Congress can ratify amendments to the Constitution without input from states. b. States will ratify amendments to the Constitution even if citizens disagree with them. c. Individuals can influence decisions on the ratification of constitutional amendments. d. States can choose to ratify amendments to the US Constitution when they want to.

On a certain portion of an experiment, a statistical test result yielded a p-value of 0.18. what can you conclude? 2(0.18) = 0.36 < 0.5; the test is not statistically significant. if the null hypothesis is true, one could expect to get a test statistic at least as extreme as that observed 18% of the time, so the test is not statistically significant. if the null hypothesis is true, one could expect to get a test statistic at least as extreme as that observed 82% of the time, so the test is not statistically significant. 0.18 > 0.05; the test is statistically significant. p = 1 - 0.18 = 0.82 > 0.05; the test is statistically significant.
