Question

A company claims that 9% of the items produced on a new machine are defective.

Answer 1

Considering the situation described, the appropriate null hypothesis is given by:

$H_0: p = 0.09$

What are the hypothesis tested?

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if the proportion is the expected one, that is, of 9%, hence:

$H_0: p = 0.09$

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if there is enough evidence to conclude that the proportion is above 9%, hence:

$H_1: p > 0.1$.
