Question

State the final conclusion in simple nontechnical terms.

Answer 1

Answer:

B. There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the proportion of male golfers is less than 0.6.

Step-by-step explanation:

The proportion of male golfers is less than 0.6.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is of at least 0.6, that is:

$H_0: p \geq 0.6$

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the proportion is of less than 0.6, that is:

$H_1: p < 0.6$

Fail to reject the null hypothesis.

This means that there is not sufficient evidence to conclude that the proportion is less than 0.6, and thus the correct answer is given by option B.
