Simple Button click navigate to another activity xml page

Question

I'm a beginner with Android development and want to create a simple onClick event to bring me to a blank activity page. I have named my new activity page InsurancePage and added a button called insurance to my xml file. When I click on this button I want to to bring me to the InsurancePage.

<Button
            android:id="@+id/insurance"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="fill_parent"
            android:layout_weight="46.24"
            android:background="@drawable/curvebutton"
            android:lines="1"
            android:text="@string/insurance"
            android:textColor="#ffffff"
            android:onClick="onClickbtnInsurance" />

Your ability at Android Programming doesn't change how you would go about solving this problem... Look at `startActivity` and learn from there. — Luke Joshua Park, Nov 07 '15 at 21:31

Let's say that you have a button called myButton and this is in you MainActivity class:

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

    Button myButton = findViewById(R.id.new_button);
    myButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            startActivity(new Intent(MainActivity.this, InsurancePage.class));
        }

    }
