Question

A new company is in the process of evaluating its customer service. The company offers two types of sales: (1) Internet sales and (2) store sales. The marketing research manager believes that the Internet sales are more than 10 percent higher than store sales. The alternative hypothesis for this problem would be stated as:

Answer 1

Answer:

$H_A: P_{\text{Internet}}-P_{\text{Store}} > 0.10$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Let $P_{\text{Internet}}$ be the proportion of the internet sales and $P_{\text{Store}}$ be the proportion of the store sale.

Hypothesis:

We have to conduct a hypothesis to check that the Internet sales are more than 10 percent higher than store sales.

Thus, we can design the null and alternative hypothesis as:

$H_{0}: P_{\text{Internet}}-P_{\text{Store}}\leq 0.10\\H_A: P_{\text{Internet}}-P_{\text{Store}} > 0.10$

Alternate Hypothesis:

The alternate hypothesis states that the proportion of the internet sales is greater than the proportion of store sales by 10 percent.
