Molly works for a meat producer, and she needs to determine whether containers of ground beef have the correct fat content. She

obtains a random sample of 120 containers of ground beef and finds that 84 percent have the correct fat content. Molly then conducts a hypothesis test of H0:p=0.80 versus Ha:p≠0.80 and calculates a test statistic of 1.10 with a p-value of 0.273. Which of the following best represents the meaning of the p-value?
A: If the population proportion is 0.84, the probability of observing a sample proportion of 0.80 is 0.273.
B: If the population proportion is 0.84, the probability of observing a sample proportion of at least 0.04 less than 0.84 is 0.273.
C: If the population proportion is 0.80, the probability of observing a sample proportion within 0.04 of 0.80 is 0.273.
D: If the population proportion is 0.80, the probability of observing a sample proportion at least 0.04 greater than 0.80 is 0.273.
E: If the population proportion is 0.80, the probability of observing a sample proportion of at least 0.84 or at most 0.76 is 0.273.

Answer:

The correct answer is option (E)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution to the question

Let us recall from given question that,

H0:p=0.80

Ha:p≠0.80 (which is the two tailed test)

For the p-value we have,

P-value: Let us assume that the null hypothesis is true, then the probability of observing the sample statistics or the  more extreme,

Therefore if p= 0.80, the probability of observing or detecting proportion of samples is of at least 0.84 or at most 0.76 is 0.273.

It appears that your answer contains either a link or inappropriate words. Please correct and submit again!

Answer:

See below. The answer is incomplete, I couldn't post it.

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering a function f, it is said to be discontinuous when it has a hole or breaks, it means places where f(x) cannot be evaluated. For example, when the denominator equals to 0, it is not defined.
