Question
The following summary statistics are obtained from two independent populations:
x1=18 n1=80
x2=44 n2=120
x1 and x2 represent the number of successes in samples of sizes n1 and n2 respectively.Standard Normal Distribution Table
a. State the hypotheses for testing if a significant difference exists between the two population proportions.
H0 : p1−p2= ? 0
H1 : p1−p2 = ? 0
b. Calculate the test statistic.
z=
Round to two decimal places if necessary
Enter 0 if normal approximation cannot be used
c. Determine the critical value(s) and state the rejection region for the null hypothesis at a=0.2�=0.2.
