When the clinical trial of the XSORT method of gender select

When the clinical trial of the XSORT method of gender selection is completed, a formal hypothesis test wil be conducted with the alternative hypothesis of p > 0.5, which corresponds to the claim that the XSORT method increases the likeliboad of having a girl, so that the proportion of girls is greater than 0.5. If you are responsible for developing the XSORT method and you want to show its effectiveness, which of the following P-values whould you prefer

Solution

AS GIVEN Ha = p>0.5

and as given i am responsible for the result therefore i will need to prove my result so i will take as small value of p less then 0.05 which cannnot reject the alternative hypothesis hence the smallest value will be 0.001

hence option A is correct.
