Answer to Problem 50E

The appropriate hypotheses for the true proportions of spins are:

The null hypothesis: H0:p=0.50

The alternate hypothesis: Ha:p0.50

Explanation of Solution

Given:

  p=0.50

On flipping of the fair coin, there is probability of coin lands on heads is 0.50

So, the null hypothesis is given by the following expression:

  H0:p=0.5

Exactly opposite to the null hypothesis is stated by the alternate hypothesis:

  Ha : at least p is incorrect.

Or

  Ha:p0.50

Conclusion:

Hence, null hypothesis and alternate hypothesis are stated above.

b.

To determine

The P value and standardized test statistics are to be estimated.

Answer to Problem 50E

The P value and standardized test statistics are 0.11507,1.2 respectively.

Explanation of Solution

Given:

  n=250x=140p=0.50

Concept Used:

The test statistic is calculated by using the following expression:

  Z=p^pp(1p)n

Where,

Sample proportion: p^

Sample size: n

Calculation:

Firstly need to calculate the sample proportion which is the ratio of the number of successes and the sample size:

  p^=xnp^=140250p^=0.56

The test statistic is calculated by using the following expression:

  Z=p^pp(1p)n

Put the values from given data in the above eq.

  Z=p^pp(1p)nZ=0.560.50.5(10.5)100Z=0.560.50.5(0.5)100Z=0.060.05Z=1.2

Now the probability value of the Z score Z=1.2 is:

  P(x<Z)=0.88493P(x>Z)=10.88493=0.11507

Conclusion:

By using the chi-square subtotals, value of the test-statistics is estimated.

c.

To determine

The meaning of the P value and conclusion of the claim of competing for true proportions is to be interpreted.

Answer to Problem 50E

  P value is less than the significance level that means reject hypothesis.

Explanation of Solution

If the P value is less than or equal to the significance level then the null hypothesis is rejected.

If the P value is greater than the significance level that means fail to reject null hypothesis.

From the answer of above part:

  p=0.11507

So, P value is 0.11507 which less than the given significance level is of 0.50 . So, it leads to reject the null hypothesis H0:p=0.50 .

So, it clearly shows that it has enough evidence to claim the competing about the true proportions of spin.

Conclusion:

Hence, the null hypothesis H0 is rejected.
