Question
You are conducting a study to see if the proportion of men over the age of 50 who
regularly have their prostate examined is significantly less than 0.38. A random sample
of 707 men over the age of 50 found that 209 have their prostate regularly
examined. Do the sample data provide convincing evidence to support the claim? Test
the relevant hypotheses using a 5% level of significance. Give answer to at least 4
decimal places.
What are the correct hypotheses? (Select the correct symbols and use decimal values
not percentages.)
Ho: Select an answer
H1: Select an answer v
Based on the hypotheses, find the following:
Test Statistic =
Critical-value%=
Shade the sampling distribution curve with the correct critical value(s) and shade the
critical regions. The arrows can only be dragged to z-scores that are accurate to 1
place after the decimal point (these values correspond to the tick marks on the
horizontal axis). Select from the drop down menu to shade to the left, to the right,
between or left and right of the z-score(s).
