8. In a test of hypothesis, H0: p = 0.05 against Ha: p < 0.05, the following was determined:

a. Rejection region: z < -z0.01 = -2.33, Z (test statistic) = -1.32, and p-value = 0.093. Based on a 0.01 or 0.05 level of significance, do you (check one below):

i. Reject the null hypothesis? _________________

ii. Do not reject the null hypothesis? _____________

Solution

As P = 0.093 is greater than both 0.05 and 0.01, then

DO NOT REJECT THE NULL HYPOTHESIS FOR BOTH 0.01 AND 0.05. [ANSWER]
