Answer:

The null hypothesis is H_0: p \geq 0.2

The alternative hypothesis is H_1: p < 0.2

The p-value of the test is of 0.0154 > 0.01, which means that at the 0.01 significance level, there is not significant evidence that the return rate is less than 20%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Test the claim that the return rate is less than 20%.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the return rate is of at least 20%, that is:

H_0: p \geq 0.2

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the return rate is less than 20%, that is:

H_1: p < 0.2

Normal distribution as an approximation to the binomial distribution to find the Z-score.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability.

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

E(X) = np

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that \mu = E(X), \sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}.

0.2 is tested at the null hypothesis. Sample of 6957.

This means that p = 0.2, n = 6957. So

\mu = E(X) = np = 6957*0.2 = 1391.4

\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{6957*0.2*0.8} = 33.36

1319 surveys returned

This means that, due to continuity correction, X = 1319 + 0.5 = 1319.5. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{1319.5 - 1391.4}{33.36}

Z = -2.16

P-value of the test:

The p-value of the test is the probability of 1319 or less people returning the survey, which is the p-value of Z = -2.16.

Looking at the z-table, Z = -2.16 has a p-value of 0.0154.

The p-value of the test is of 0.0154 > 0.01, which means that at the 0.01 significance level, there is not significant evidence that the return rate is less than 20%.

I understand the simple interest part, however I don’t understand the compounded interest part, need help quick.
Burka [1]
Compound interest is the starting amount x (1+ the interest rate as a decimal)^ the time in years=the final amount.

In your case, the equation will be $1000*(1+0.10)^how many years= the final amount.
