The National Academy of Science reported that 33 % of research in mathematics is published by US authors. The mathematics chairperson of a prestigious university wishes to test the claim that this percentage is no longer 33 %. He has no indication of whether the percentage has increased or decreased since that time. He surveys a simple random sample of 280 recent articles published by reputable mathematics research journals and finds that 108 of these articles have US authors. Does this evidence support the mathematics chairperson's claim that the percentage is no longer 33 % ? Use a 0.01 level of significance. Step 1 of 3: State the null and alternative hypotheses for the test. Fill in the blank below. Answer Ho :p = 0.33 Ha P O # ο ο ο HAV O < 0.33 Tables Keypad Keyboard Shortcuts
A random sample of n1 = 148 people ages 16 to 19 were taken from the island of Oahu, Hawaii, and 14 were found to be high school dropouts.
