2. A manufacturer of automatic washers offers a model in one of three colors: A, B, or C. Of the first 1000 washers sold, 400 were of color A. Would you conclude that customers have a preference for color A? Justify your answer. Assume that "the first 1000 washers sold" is a random sample. 3. In March 2001, a Gallup poll asked, "How would you rate the overall quality of the environment in this country today-as excellent, good, fair or poor?" Of 1060 adults nationwide, 46% gave a rating of excellent or good. Is this convincing evidence that a majority of the nation's adults think the quality of the environment is fair or poor? Test using a = .05.

Lab 8-Hypothesis Testing (One Sample)
For each hypothesis test, you must include the following:
Identification of the appropriate test to use
Null and alternative hypothesis with a labeled claim
Test Statistic
P-Value
A sketch of the critical region(s) with the test statistic clearly labeled
Justification for rejecting or failing to reject the null hypothesis
A complete sentence conclusion which includes the original claim.
Part 1. Proportion
1. According to the Washington Post, nearly 45% of all Americans are born with brown eyes, although
their eyes don't necessarily stay brown. A random sample of 80 adults found 32 with brown eyes. Is
there sufficient evidence (at the 0.01 significance level) to indicate that the proportion of brown-eyed
Sample size = 80 adults differs from the proportion of Americans who are born with brown eyes? SEP
Number of adults found w/ brown eyes = 32
Population proportion: 0.45
Test used: Z test
P^= x/M = 32/80 = 0,40
Null hypothesis Ho: p = 0.45
Alternative hypothesis. Ha: p = 0.45
Test statistic:
X= p^-p/ p(¹-P)/n
= 0,40 -0.45 / 0.45(1-0.45) / 80 reject Ho
= -0,05 / 0,055621
= 0,8989
|2|= 0,8989
#P-value- using excel
= 2*NORM DIST (0,8989,0,1,true)
Since P value equals 0.3687>0.01 dont
There is no evidence to support the claim
that the population proportion of brown
