Question
Test the claim that the proportion of people who own cats is significantly different than 80% at the 0.01 significance level.
The alternative hypothesis would be:
μ<0.8μ<0.8
p>0.8p>0.8
μ>0.8μ>0.8
μ≠0.8μ≠0.8
p<0.8p<0.8
p≠0.8p≠0.8
The test is:
right-tailed
two-tailed
left-tailed
Based on a sample of 400 people, 71% owned cats
The test statistic is: (to 2 decimals)
The p-value is: (to 2 decimals)
Based on this we:
- Reject the null hypothesis
- Fail to reject the null hypothesis
The conclusion is:
- At the 0.01 alpha level, I was unable to show that the proportion of people who own cats is significantly greater than 80 percent.
- At the 0.01 alpha level, I was unable to show that the proportion of people who own cats is significantly different than 80 percent.
- At the 0.01 alpha level, I was able to show that the proportion of people who own cats is significantly greater than 80 percent.
- At the 0.01 alpha level, I was able to show that the proportion of people who own cats is significantly less than 80 percent.
- At the 0.01 alpha level, I was unable to show that proportion of people who own cats is significantly less than 80 percent.
- At the 0.01 alpha level, I was able to show that the proportion of people who own cats is equal to 80 percent.

- In 1990, the average duration of long-distance telephone calls originating in one town was 9.4 minutes. A long-distance telephone company wants to perform a significance test to determine whether the average duration of long-distance phone calls has changed from the 1990 mean of 9.4 minutes. The hypotheses are: H0: μ = 9.4 minutes HA: μ ≠ 9.4 minutesSuppose that the results of the sample lead to non-rejection of the null hypothesis. Classify that conclusion as a Type I error, a Type II error, or a correct decision, if in fact the mean duration of long-distance phone calls has changed from the 1990 mean of 9.4 minutes.
