Use the normal distribution and the given sample results to complete the test of the given hypotheses. Assume the results come f

rom a random sample and use a 5 % significance level. Test H0 : p = 0.5 vs Ha : p > 0.5 using the sample results p= 0.64 with n = 75. Round your answer for the test statistic to two decimal places, and your answer for the p-value to three decimal places.

Answer:

z=\frac{0.64 -0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{75}}}=2.43  

Now we can calculate the p value with the following probability:

p_v =P(z>2.43)=0.0075 \approx 0.008  

Since the p value is lower than the significance level we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true proportion for this case is higher than 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

n=75 represent the random sample taken

\hat p=0.64 estimated proportion of interest

p_o=0.5 is the value that we want to test

\alpha=0.05 represent the significance level

Confidence=95% or 0.95

z would represent the statistic

p_v represent the p value

System of hypothesis

We want to verify if the true proportion is higher than 0.5:  

Null hypothesis:p =0.5  

Alternative hypothesis:p > 0.5  

The statistic is given by:

z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}} (1)  

Replacing the info given we got:

z=\frac{0.64 -0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{75}}}=2.43  

Now we can calculate the p value with the following probability:

p_v =P(z>2.43)=0.0075 \approx 0.008  

Since the p value is lower than the significance level we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true proportion for this case is higher than 0.5

How do you solve -1/12 - (-11/12)
valentinak56 [21]

-1/12 - (-11/12) would change into -1/12 + 11/12 because a double negative (bold print) would become a positive. The answer to the new problem would be 10/12 or 5/6 (depending on if it says to simplify).
