In July of 2013, Australians were asked if they thought unemployment would increase, and 47% thought that it would increase. In November of 2013, they were asked again. At that time 306 out of 700 said that they thought unemployment would increase. At the 8% level, is there enough evidence to show that the proportion of Australians in November 2013 who believe unemployment would increase is lower than the proportion who felt it would increase in July 2013?

P: PARAMETER

     What is the correct parameter symbol for this problem?

               

     What is the wording of the parameter in the context of this problem?

              

H: HYPOTHESES

     Fill in the correct null and alternative hypotheses:

     H0:H0:                    

     HA:HA:                    


A: ASSUMPTIONS

     Since     information was collected from each object, what conditions do we need to check?

     Check all that apply.

     

  • n(1−p)≥10n(1-p)≥10
  • n≥30n≥30 or normal population.
  • σσ is known.
  • n(pˆ)≥10n(p̂)≥10
  • np≥10np≥10
  • n(1−pˆ)≥10n(1-p̂)≥10
  • σσ is unknown.
  • N≥20nN≥20n



     Check those assumptions:

          1. npnp =  which is         

          2. n(1−p)n(1-p) =  which is         

          3. NN =  which is         

 

              If no N is given in the problem, use 1000000

N: NAME THE PROCEDURE

     The conditions are met to use a        .

T: TEST STATISTIC

     The symbol and value of the random variable on this problem are as follows:

     Leave this answer as a fraction.

                = 

     The formula set up of the test statistic is as follows.:  

     (Leave any values that were given as fractions as fractions)


z=pˆ−p√p(1−p)n=z=p̂-pp(1-p)n=

(  −- )/√((/(( ⋅(1−⋅(1- )) // ))  

     Final answer for the test statistic from technology.

     Round to 2 decimal places:

     z = 

O: OBTAIN THE P-VALUE

     Report to 4 decimal places.

     It is possible when rounded that a p-value is 0.0000

     P-value = 

M: MAKE A DECISION

     Since the p-value          , we        .

S: STATE A CONCLUSION

    There     significant evidence to conclude
