6. Suppose that in a random selection of 100 colored candies, 25% of them are blue. The candy company claims that the percentage of blue candies is equal to 23%. Use a 0.01 significance level to test that claim.
Identify the null and alternative hypotheses for this test. Choose the correct answer below.
VA. Ho: p= 0.23
H,: p# 0.23
О В. Но: р-0.23
H,: p> 0.23
O C. Ho: p= 0.23
H,:p<0.23
O D. H,: p#0.23
H,: p= 0.23
Identify the test statistic for this hypothesis test.
The test statistic for this hypothesis test is
(Round to two decimal places as needed.)
Identify the P-value for this hypothesis test.
The P-value for this hypothesis test is
(Round to three decimal places as needed.)
Identify the conclusion for this hypothesis test.
O A. Fail to reject H,. There is sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the percentage of blue candies is equal to 23%
O B. Reject Ho. There is not sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the percentage of blue candies is equal to 23%
O C. Reject Ho. There is sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the percentage of blue candies is equal to 23%
O D. Fail to reject H,. There is not sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the percentage of blue candies is equal to 23%
