To determine if the proportions the European football agency reported are accurate, the researcher will conduct a hypothesis test. Fill in the blanks below to correctly state the null hypothesis. Report all values as proportions (not percentages) to three decimal places. H0: pTopical =__________ ; pPill =____________ ; pPowder = _____________
A European football agency reports the following based on a study they did: 90% of soccer players take magnesium in topical form for muscle soreness, 5.5% take magnesium in pill form, and 4.5% take magnesium in powder form. To verify, a researcher randomly selects 794 soccer players and reports the following.
Form of magnesium (Mg) |
Number of soccer players |
Topical |

Pill |
95 |
Powder |
67 |
To determine if the proportions the European football agency reported are accurate, the researcher will conduct a hypothesis test. Fill in the blanks below to correctly state the null hypothesis. Report all values as proportions (not percentages) to three decimal places.
H0: pTopical =__________ ; pPill =____________ ; pPowder = _____________
where pTopical = the proportion of soccer players that take magnesium in topical form for muscle soreness
pPill = the proportion of soccer players that take magnesium in pill form for muscle soreness
pPowder = the proportion of soccer players that take magnesium in powder for muscle soreness
