Question
Test the claim that the proportion of men who own cats is smaller than 40% at the .10 significance level.
The null and alternative hypothesis would be:
Based on a sample of 100 people, 39% owned cats
The test statistic is: (to 2 decimals)
The critical value is: (to 2 decimals)
The null and alternative hypothesis would be:

- A medical equipment manufacturer believes that the proportion of faulty blood pressure monitors is greater than 0.11, the proportion stated by the supplier. We perform a hypothesis test at a significance level of 0.05 with the null and alternative hypothesis as follows: Ho: p = 0.11 and Ha: p < 0.11. A researcher inspects 150 items and finds 25 faulty ones. She gives a p-value of 0.01 in her analysis. Which of the following definitions is the correct interpretation of the p-value? O The probability of getting 25 or more faulty blood pressure monitors out of 150 if the true faulty rate is 0.11. The value that the z-statistic must be less than in order to reject the null hypothesis. The probability of rejecting a true null hypothesis.
