The following is an extract from a technical report on the use of internet during thelockdown imposed due to COVID 19. Read the extract and revise it for precisionand clarity as it contains vague and impressionistic information. Due to COVID 19, a nationwide lockdown has been imposed in most of the countries around the globe. This has led to an unusual increase in the use of the internet. An average internet user is using the internet a lot more [1] than his/her pre-COVID 19 usage. There are many reasons for this increase in the in the use of internet. A great majority[1] of the industries, business, and organizations [2] have adopted the work from home policy due to which internet use has increased to an unprecedented degree. Many employees[1] are working from home through the internet. Due to the lockdown, people are confined in their homes and there is not much that can be done for entertainment. Thus, a huge majority of young people[1] have started using internet much more than[1] they used to do before the lockdown. Many online movie streaming websites[2] have seen a record high[1] in their customer base and overall traffic. You are required to provide statistics and figures, examples for precision.

Did Lockdown influence the number of new Covid-19 cases. Explain.

According to the UCLA Internet Report (February 2003) the use of the Internet at home is growing steadily and it is estimated that roughly 59.3% of households in the United States have Internet access at home. Has that trend continued since the report was released? To study this, a random sample of 1,200 households from a big metropolitan area was chosen for a more recent study, and it was found that 972 had an Internet connection. Let p be the proportion of U.S. households that have internet access.Write down the null and alternative hypotheses in the space provided below:

An article mentioned that 4.66 billion people around the world use the internet in January 2021. What does the article imply? Group of answer choicesThe internet should replace all traditional means of resourcing information and communicating.The internet has an undisputed value in providing access to social media and telecommunication services.Social media applications are crucial in supporting the needs of millennial consumers across the world.The world population is steadily growing at a fast rate.

The UCLA Internet Report (February 2003) estimated that a proportion of roughly 0.75 of online homes are still using dial-up access, but claimed that the use of dial-up is declining. Is that really the case? To examine this, a follow-up study was conducted a year later in which, out of a random sample of 1,308 households that had Internet access, 804 were connecting using a dial-up modem.Let p be the proportion of all U.S. Internet-using households who have dial-up access. In the previous activity, we established that the appropriate hypotheses here are:H0: p = 0.75 and Ha: p < 0.75
