Answer:

There is no sufficient evidence to support the executive claim

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The population proportion is $p = 0.48$

The sample proportion is $\r p = 0.45$

The sample size is $n = 300$

The level of significance is $\alpha = 0.02$

The null hypothesis is $H_o : p= 0.48$

The alternative hypothesis is $H_a : p \ne 0.48$

Generally the test statistics is mathematically evaluated as

$t = \frac{\r p - p }{ \sqrt{ \frac{p(1 - p )}{n} } }$

=> $t = \frac{0.45 - 0.48 }{ \sqrt{ \frac{0.48 (1 - 0.48 )}{300} } }$

=> $t = -1.04$

The p-value is mathematically represented as

$p-value = 2P(z > |-1.04|)$

Form the z-table

$P(z > |-1.04|) = 0.15$

=> $p-value = 2 * 0.15$

=> $p-value = 0.3$

Given that $p-value > \alpha$ we fail to reject the null hypothesis

Hence we can conclude that there is no sufficient evidence to support the executive claim

a) 37.31 b) 42.70 c) 0.57 d) 0.09

Step-by-step explaanation:

We are regarding a normal distribution with a mean of 35 and a standard deviation of 6, i.e., $\mu$ = 35 and $\sigma$ = 6. We know that the probability density function for a normal distribution with a mean of $\mu$ and a standard deviation of $\sigma$ is given by
