Question

The survey was done to test the suggestion that the proportion of younger adults who use their horn is greater than the proportion of older adults who use their horn. Which of the following represents the hypotheses that we will be testing, assuming that p1 represents the population proportion of all young adults 20-39 who report using their horns and that p2 represents the population proportion of all older adults 60+ who report using their horns?
a. H0: p1=p2 versus Ha: p1>p2
b. H0: p1=p2 versus Ha: p1 c. H0: p1=p2 versus Ha: p2>p1
d. H0: p1=p2 versus Ha: p1=/=p2

Answer 1

Answer:

a. H0: p1=p2 versus Ha: p1>p2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

p1 represent the proportion of the population for young allots 20-39

And, p2 denotes the proportion of the population for all older adults that are above 60

So,

We need to find out the hypotheses

The null & alternative hypothesis is

H_o: P_1 = P_2

H_a: P_1>P_2

This shows the right tailed test
