Assume a significance level of alpha equals 0.05 and use the given information to complete parts (a) and (b) below. Original claim: The proportion of male golfers is more than 0.6 . The hypothesis test results in a P-value of 0.19 . a. State a conclusion about the null hypothesis. (Reject Upper H 0 or fail to reject Upper H 0 .) Choose the correct answer below. A. Reject Upper H 0 because the P-value is greater than alpha . B. Fail to reject Upper H 0 because the P-value is greater than alpha . C. Reject Upper H 0 because the P-value is less than alpha . D. Fail to reject Upper H 0 because the P-value is less than alpha . b. Without using technical terms, state a final conclusion that addresses the original claim. Which of the following is the correct conclusion? A. There is not sufficient evidence to reject the claim that the proportion of male golfers ismore than 0.6 . B. There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the proportion of male golfers is more than 0.6 . C. There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the proportion of male golfers is more than 0.6 . D. There is sufficient evidence to reject the claim that the proportion of male golfers ismore than 0.6 .
Solution
A)
Since P value=0.19 and alpha=0.05
P > alpha . we Fail to reject the null hypothesis. Option B is correct
B)
here we are fail to reject the Null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence to reject the claim that the proportion of male golfers ismore than 0.6 .
