Question

In a fishing lodge brochure, the lodge advertises that 75% of its guests catch northern pike over 20 pounds. Suppose that last summer 65 out of a random sample of 78 guests did, in fact, catch northern pike weighing over 20 pounds. Does this indicate that the population proportion of guests who catch pike over 20 pounds is different from 75% (either higher or lower)? Use ? = 0.05.

Find the P-value of the test statistic. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

0.0446 IS NOT THE ANSWER

Expert Solution

Step 1

Given that, In a fishing lodge brochure, the lodge advertises that 75% of its guests catch northern pike over 20 pounds. Last summer 65 out of a random sample of 78 guests did, in fact, catch northern pike weighing over 20 pounds.

We need to test if this indicate that the population proportion of guests who catch pike over 20 pounds is different from 75% (either higher or lower).

We need to find the P-value of the test statistic.
