1 proportion z-test
1. A local news report claims that 40% of the vehicles on the freeways are vans or SUV's.
You go to a nearby freeway overpass, count 60 vehicles, of which only 19 are vans or
SUV's. Can we say, using a = .05, that the actual percentage is lower than the news
report?
2. A company claims that 90% of its deliveries arrive on time. You take a sample of 74
deliveries, of which only 59 arrive on time. Is this enough evidence to say that the true
percentage of on-time deliveries is lower than claimed? (Use a = .10)
