Question

Suppose you and your colleagues have identified three reliable and recent polls. Looking at the results of all three, you find their p-values to be: 0.058 0.026 0.045 Barring any major incidents between now and election day, how much evidence do you have to predict your candidate will win the election

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is "Pretty confident our candidate will win".

Step-by-step explanation:

All the following theories:  

$H_o$: The loss of our candidate  

$H_a$: Our candidate  

P values of 0.058, 0.026 and 0.045 are defined.  

All values are below 0.10, but 2 of them will be below 0.05, which indicates very good proof of Ha.  Therefore, the right reply is that our candidate will win very comfortably.
