A random sample of 163 recent donations at a certain blood b
A random sample of 163 recent donations at a certain blood bank reveals that 82 were type A blood. Does this suggest that the actual percentage of type A donations differs from 40%, the percentage of the population having type A blood? Carry out a test of the appropriate hypotheses using a significance level of 0.01.
 State the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses.
H0: p = 0.40
 Ha: p < 0.40H0: p = 0.40
 Ha: p > 0.40    H0: p  0.40
 Ha: p = 0.40H0: p = 0.40
 Ha: p  0.40
 State the rejection region(s). If the critical region is one-sided, enter NONE for the unused region. Round your answers to two decimal places.
 Compute the test statistic value. Round your answer to two decimal places.
 z =  
 
 State the conclusion in the problem context.
Reject the null hypothesis. There is not sufficient evidence to conclude that the percentage of type A donations differs from 40%.Do not reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that the percentage of type A donations differs from 40%. Reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that the percentage of type A donations differs from 40%.Do not reject the null hypothesis. There is not sufficient evidence to conclude that the percentage of type A donations differs from 40%.
 Would your conclusion have been different if a significance level of 0.05 had been used?
YesNo

Solution
Set Up Hypothesis
 Null, H0:P=0.4
 Alternate, H1: P!=0.4
 Test Statistic
 No. Of Success chances Observed (x)=82
 Number of objects in a sample provided(n)=163
 No. Of Success Rate ( P )= x/n = 0.5031
 Success Probability ( Po )=0.4
 Failure Probability ( Qo) = 0.6
 we use Test Statistic (Z) for Single Proportion = P-Po/Sqrt(PoQo/n)
 Zo=0.50307-0.4/(Sqrt(0.24)/163)
 Zo =2.686
 | Zo | =2.686
 Critical Value
 The Value of |Z | at LOS 0.01% is 2.58
 We got |Zo| =2.686 & | Z  | =2.58
 Make Decision
 Hence Value of | Zo | > | Z | and Here we Reject Ho
 P-Value: Two Tailed ( double the one tail ) - Ha : ( P != 2.68602 ) = 0.00723
 Hence Value of P0.01 > 0.0072,Here we Reject Ho
ANS:
 z    -2.58
 z  2.58
 Z = 2.69
 Reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that
 the percentage of type A donations differs from 40%
 No
