Because of variability in the manufacturing process, the actual yielding point of a sample of mild steel subjected to increasing
stress will usually differ from the theoretical yielding point. Let p denote the true proportion of samples that yield before their theoretical yielding point. If on the basis of a sample it can be concluded that more than 20% of all specimens yield before the theoretical point, the production process will have to be modified. If 15 of 60 specimens yield before the theoretical point what is the P-value when the appropriate test is used, and what would you advise the company to do?
B is consider to be the y-intercept. If you plot those two points and draw a line connecting the two. The line would go through (0,14). Making 14 the y-intercept and the correct answer.
