- Suppose that in a random selection of 100 colored candies, 26% of them are blue. The candy company claims that the percentage of blue candies is equal to 25%. Use a 0.05 significance level to test that claim. Identify the null and alternative hypotheses for this test. Choose the correct answer below. OA. Ho: p=0.25 H₁: p>0.25 OB. Ho: p=0.25 H₁: p=0.25 O C.

We want to use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that the majority of adults are in favor of the death penalty for a person convicted of murder. a) Identify the null and alternative hypothesis. b) Find the value of the test statistic. c) Determine what we should conclude about the original claim.arrow_forward
- Some people claim that they can tell the difference between a diet soda and a regular soda in the first sip. A researcher wanting to test this claim randomly sampled 84 such people. She filled 84 plain white cups with soda, half diet and half regular through random assignment, and asked each person to take one sip from their cup and identify the soda as diet or regular. 51 participants correctly identified the soda. Conduct and interpret a hypothesis test for the following question: are these people any better or worse at telling the difference between diet and regular soda than random guessing (correctly identify soda half of the time)? HINT: what is your hypothesized proportion if you want to test if these participants are right or not half of the time? Use a = .01 significance level.
