Flaws The null hypothesis on true/false tests is that the student is guessing, and the proportion of right answers is 0.50. A student taking a five-question true/false quiz gets 4 right out of 5. She says that this shows that she knows the material, because the one-tailed p-value from the one-proportion z -test is 0.090 , and she is using a significance level of 0.10. What is wrong with her approach?

Solution Summary: The author explains that the student's sample size is not large enough to conduct the one-proportion z -test. The expected number of successes and failures is less than 10, which violates the condition of sample
