Problem #1: (a) A genetic model suggests that 80% of plants grown from a cross between two given strains of seeds will be of the dwarf variety. After breeding 203 of these plants, 153 were observed to be of the dwarf variety. Do these data strongly contradict the genetic model? Find the p-value. (b) At the 10% significance level, what is the conclusion of the above hypothesis test?

Question
Problem #1: (a) A genetic model suggests that 80% of plants grown from a cross between two given strains of seeds will be of
the dwarf variety. After breeding 203 of these plants, 153 were observed to be of the dwarf variety. Do these
data strongly contradict the genetic model? Find the p-value.
(b) At the 10% significance level, what is the conclusion of the above hypothesis test?
Problem #1(a):
p-value (correct to 4 decimals)
(A) We cannot conclude that the data contradict the genetic model
since the p-value is less than .05
(B) We conclude that the data contradict the genetic model
since the p-value is greater than or equal to .05
(C) We cannot conclude that the data contradict the genetic model
since the p-value is less than 0.1
(D) We conclude that the data contradict the genetic model
since the p-value is less than 0.1
(E) We cannot conclude that the data contradict the genetic model
since the p-value is greater or equal to 05
(F) We conclude that the data contradict the genetic model
since the p-value is greater than or equal to 0.1
(G) We cannot conclude that the data contradict the genetic model
since the p-value is greater or equal to 0.1
(H) We conclude that the data contradict the genetic model
since the p-value is less than .05
