Question

You are conducting a study to see if the proportion of voters who prefer Candidate A is significantly different from 0.36. If your null and alternative hypothesis are:

H0:p=0.36H0:p=0.36
H1:p≠0.36H1:p≠0.36

Then the test is:

left tailed
two tailed
right tailed

Expert Solution

Step 1

In hypothesis testing, a null hypothesis can be defined as the hypothesis of no difference or equality, whereas an alternative hypothesis can be defined as the claim we are testing. A hypothesis test is said to be one-tailed if the population parameter is less/greater than some hypothesized value in the alternative hypothesis.
