An executive believes that no more than 80% of the company’s employees take all of their vacation days. In a sample of 210 members, 158 employees took all of their vacation days. Therefore, the p-value is 0.0422. When testing the executive's (using a 5% level of significance), what can you conclude concerning the null hypothesis?

- An executive believes that no more than 80% of the company’s employees take all of their vacation days. In a sample of 210 members, 158 employees took all of their vacation days. Therefore, the p-value is 0.0422. When testing the executive's (using a 5% level of significance), what can you conclude concerning the null hypothesis?

- In the past, 30% of a country club's members brought guests to play golf sometime during the year. Last year, the club initiated a new program designed to encourage members to bring more guests to play golf. In a sample of 95 members, 34 brought guests to play golf after the program was initiated. When testing the hypothesis that the new program has increased the proportion of members bringing out guests (using a 5% level of significance), what is the null and alternative hypothesis?A marriage counselor has traditionally seen that the proportion p of all married couples for whom her communication program can prevent divorce is 77%. After making some recent changes, the marriage counselor now claims that her program can prevent divorce in more than 77% of married couples.

- US Universities found that 72% of people are concerned about the possibility that their personal records could be stolen over the internet. If a random sample of 300 college students at a Midwestern university were taken and 228 of them were concerned about the possibility that their personal records could be stolen over the Internet, could you conclude at the 0.025 level of significance that a higher proportion of the university’s college students are concerned about Internet theft than the public at large?

A veterinarian believed this result to be too high, so he randomly selected 200 pet owners and discovered that 73 of them spoke to their pet on the telephone.

The professor conducts a simple random sample of 272 college students and finds that 231 of them identify themselves as procrastinators. Does this evidence support the professor's claim that fewer than 88 % of college students are procrastinators? Use a 0.02 level of significance. Step 1 of 3: State the null and alternative hypotheses for the test. Fill in the blank below. Ho p = 0.88 Ha P 0.88A nationwide survey of working adults indicates that out of 100 adults, 50 of them are satisfied with their jobs. The president of a large company believes that more than this number of employees at his company are satisfies with their jobs. To test his belief, he surveys a random sample of 100 employees, and 59 of them report that they are satisfied with their jobs. Do you support president's statement about the employee’s satisfaction?

Of the subjects surveyed, 257 were in favor, 281 were opposed, and 103 were unsure. A politician claims that people don't really understand the stem cell issue and their responses to such questions are random responses equivalent to a coin flip. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that the proportion of subjects who respond in favor is equal to 0.5. Find the null and alternative hypothesis.
