Question
According to Inc.com, 79% of job seekers used social media in their job search in 2018. Many believe this number is inflated by the proportion of 22- to 30-year-old job seekers who use social media in their job search. Suppose a survey of 22- to 30-year-old job seekers showed that 308 of the 370 respondents use social media in their job search. In addition, 283 of the 370 respondents indicated they have electronically submitted a resume to an employer.
(a)
Conduct a hypothesis test to determine if the results of the survey justify concluding the proportion of 22- to 30-year-old job seekers who use social media in their job search exceeds the proportion of the population that use social media in their job search. Use α = 0.05.
State the null and alternative hypothesis. (Enter != for ≠ as needed.)
H0:
 
 
 
Ha:
 
 
 
Find the value of the test statistic. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
 
Find the p-value. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
p-value = 
State your conclusion.
Do not reject H0. We cannot conclude that the proportion of 22- to 30-year-old job seekers who use social media in their job searches exceeds the proportion of the population that use social media in their job searches.Do not reject H0.

(b)
Conduct a hypothesis test to determine if the results of the survey justify concluding that more than 70% of 22- to 30-year-old job seekers have electronically submitted a resume to an employer. Using α = 0.05, what is your conclusion?
