![Question 12.
Directors of a company claim that 90% of the workforce supports a new shift
pattern that they have suggested. A random survey of 100 people in the
workforce finds 85 in favour of the new scheme. Test if there is a significant
difference between the survey results and the director's claim.
12.1 What kind of test will you perform?
(a) 1 sample z-test
(c) 1 sample proportion t-test
12.2 State the Alternative Hypothesis
H1: mu < 0.9
H1: mu ≤ 0.9
(a)
(C)
H1: mu > 0.9
H1: mu * 0.9
12.3 At what level of significance will you test the difference between the director's
claim and the survey results?
(a)
alpha = 0.01
(b)
alpha= 0.025
(c)
alpha = 0.05
(d) alpha = 0.975
12.4 What kind of test in terms of the tails will you perform?
Right -tailed
(b)
Left-tailed
(a)
(C)
(b) 1 sample t-test
(d) 2 sample t-test
(b)
(d)
(a)
(c)
Two-tailed
12.5 Which value(s) indicate(s) the rejection region?
(a)
1.96
(b) 1.645
(c)
1.782
12.6 If the test statistic = -1.67, referring to the rejection region and the test
statistic, what will happen to the hypotheses?
Reject HO
Do not reject HO
(b)
(d)
Reject H1
Do not reject H1](https://content.bartleby.com/qna-images/question/3157f416-8724-4b6c-8d41-25fec5b805da/8d604e18-a6a6-40a6-909a-3499f11ebbee/cs9gkhv_thumbnail.png)
