Question

A 88.

Subject:- finance 

The Damon family owns a large grape vineyard in western New York along Lake Erle. The grapevines must be sprayed at the
beginning of the growing season to protect against various insects and diseases. Two new insecticides have just been marketed:
Pernod 5 and Action. To test their effectiveness, three long rows were selected and sprayed with Pernod 5, and three others were
sprayed with Action. When the grapes ripened, 400 of the vines treated with Pernod 5 were checked for Infestation. Likewise, a
sample of 380 vines sprayed with Action were checked. The results are:
Insecticide
Pernod S
Action
Number of Vines Checked (sample
size)
400
380
At the 0.02 significance level, can we conclude that there is a difference in the proportion of vines Infested using Pernod 5 as opposed
to Action? Hint. For the calculations, assume the Pernod 5 as the first sample.
a. State the decision rule. (Negative amounts should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round the Intermediate values. Round
your answers to 2 decimal places.)
Ho is rejected if z <<
Pooled proportion
b. Compute the pooled proportion. (Do not round the Intermediate values. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Number of Infested Vines
26
44
or z>>
Value of the test statistic
c. Compute the value of the test statistic. (Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round the intermediate
values. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
d. What is your decision regarding the null hypothesis?
Reject He
O Do not reject H
