MyStallab Final Exam This Testr 280 pta Test the hypothesis
Solution
a)
As n = 200, po = 0.3,
n po (1-po) = 200*0.3*(1-0.3) = 42 >= 10, so
ANSWER: YES.
*******************
b)
Formulating the null and alternatuve hypotheses,          
           
 Ho:   p   <=   0.3
 Ha:   p   >   0.3
 As we see, the hypothesized po =   0.3      
 Getting the point estimate of p, p^,          
           
 p^ = x / n =    0.35      
           
 Getting the standard error of p^, sp,          
           
 sp = sqrt[po (1 - po)/n] =    0.032403703      
           
 Getting the z statistic,          
           
 z = (p^ - po)/sp =    1.5430335      
           
 As this is a    1   tailed test, then, getting the p value,  
           
 p =    0.061411324 = 0.061   [ANSWER, P VALUE]  
********************
C)
DO NO REJECT THE NULL HYPOTHESIS, BECASUE THE P VALUE IS GREATER THAN ALPHA.
