Question
A college graduate is curious about the proportion of graduates who have loan debt 20 years after graduating. Let the proportion of graduates who have loan debt 20 years after graduating be p. If the college graduate wishes to know if the proportion of graduates who have loan debt 20 years after graduating is less than 18%, what are the null and alternative hypotheses?
Select the correct answer below:
H0: p=0.18; Ha: p<0.18
H0: μ=0.18; Ha: μ<0.18
H0: p=0.18; Ha: p>0.18
H0: p<0.18; Ha: p=0.18
The population (in millions) and the violent crime rate (per 1000) were recorded for 10 metropolitan areas. The data are shown in the following table. Do these data provide evidence to reject the null hypothesis that ? = 0 in favor of ? ≠(not equal sign) 0 at a = .05? (Give your answers correct to three decimal places.)
