Question

A newsletter publisher believes that 71q% of their readers own a personal computer. Is there sufficient evidence at the 0.010.01 level to refute the publisher's claim.
Required:
State the null and alternative hypotheses for the above scenario.

Answer 1

Answer:

Null - p= 71%

Alternative - p =/ 71%

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis is always the default statement in an experiment. While the alternative hypothesis is always tested against the null hypothesis.

Null hypothesis: 71% of their readers own a personal computer- p = 71%

Alternative hypothesis: Not 71% of their readers own a personal computer - p =/ 71%
