Question
You wish to test the following claim (H1H1) at a significance level of α=0.001
Ho:p1=p2
H1:p1≠p2
You obtain 187 successes in a sample of size n1=236n1=236 from the first population. You obtain 283 successes in a sample of size n2=317n2=317 from the second population.
What is the critical value for this test? (Report answer accurate to four decimal places.)
critical value = ±±
What is the test statistic for this sample? (Report answer accurate to four decimal places.)
test statistic =
The test statistic is...
- in the critical region
- not in the critical region
This test statistic leads to a decision to...
- reject the null
- accept the null
- fail to reject the null
As such, the final conclusion is that...
- There is sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the first population proportion is not equal to the second population proprtion.
- There is not sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the first population proportion is not equal to the second population proprtion.
- The sample data support the claim that the first population proportion is not equal to the second population proprtion.
- There is not sufficient sample evidence to support the claim that the first population proportion is not equal to the second population proprtion.

- Assume a significance level of α=0.1 and use the given information to complete parts (a) and (b) below. Original claim: The mean pulse rate (in beats per minute) of a certain group of adult males is 70 bpm. The hypothesis test results in a P-value of 0.0025. a. State a conclusion about the null hypothesis. (Reject H0 or fail to reject H0.) Choose the correct answer below. A. Fail to reject H0 because the P-value is less than or equal to α. B. Reject H0 because the P-value is less than or equal to α. C. Reject H0 because the P-value is greater than α. D. Fail to reject H0 because the P-value is greater than α. b. Without using technical terms, state a final conclusion that addresses the original claim. Which of the following is the correct conclusion? A.
