The null and alternative hypothesis would be:

�0:�=0.5
�1:�≠0.5
�0:�≥0.5
�1:�<0.5
�0:�≤0.5
�1:�>0.5
�0:�≤0.5
�1:�>0.5
�0:�=0.5
�1:�≠0.5
�0:�≥0.5
�1:�<0.5



The test is:

two-tailed
right-tailed
left-tailed



Based on a sample of 200 people, 49% owned cats

The test statistic is:  (to 2 decimals)

The positive critical value is:  (to 2 decimals)

Based on this we:
