Decide whether the normal sampling distribution can be used. If it can be used, test the claim about the population proportion p at the given level of significance α using the given sample statistics. Claim: p ≠ 0.29; α = 0.01; Sample statistics:
Decide whether the
α using the given sample statistics.
Claim: p
≠
0.29;
α
=
0.01; Sample statistics:
p
=
0.26, n= 150
1.Can the normal sampling distribution be used?
- State the null and alternative hypotheses.
3.Determine the critical value(s)
4.Find the z-test statistic
5.What is the result of the test?
A.
Reject
H0. The data provide sufficient evidence to support the claim.
B.
Reject
H0. The data do not provide sufficient evidence to support the claim.
C.
Fail to reject
H0. The data do not provide sufficient evidence to support the claim.
Your answer is correct.
