- According to a University Center for Logistics Management, 12% of all merchandise sold in the United States gets returned. A Seattle department store sampled 89 items sold in January and found that 8 of the items were returned.If you have the following null and alternative hypotheses for a test you are running:H0:p=0.12Ha:p<0.12Calculate the test statistic, rounded to 3 decimal places Z=arrow_forwardWho will you vote for? A simple random sample of 1500 voters were surveyed and asked whether they were planning to vote for the incumbent mayor for re-election. Seven hundred ninety-eight of them replied that they were planning to vote for the mayor. The mayor claims that more than half of all voters are planning to vote for her. To test this claim, a test of the hypotheses Ho: p = 0.5 versus H₁: p > 0.5 is performed. a. Show that the P-value is 0.007. b. The P-value is very small, so Ho is rejected. A pollster claims that because the P-value is very small, we can be fairly certain that the population proportion p is greater than 0.5, but we cannot be certain that it is a lot greater. Is this a correct interpretation of the P-value?arrow_forwardYou hear on the local news that for the city of Kalamazoo, the proportion of people who support President Trump is 0.42. However, you think it is less than 0.42. The hypotheses you want to test are Null Hypothesis: p ≥ 0.42, Alternative Hypothesis: p < 0.42. You take a random sample around town and calculate a p-value for your hypothesis test of 0.7963. What is the appropriate conclusion? Conclude at the 5% level of significance. Question 4 options: 1) We did not find enough evidence to say the proportion of people who support President Trump is larger than 0.42. 2) We did not find enough evidence to say a significant difference exists between the proportion of people who support President Trump and 0.42 3) The proportion of people who support President Trump is significantly less than 0.42. 4) We did not find enough evidence to say the proportion of people who support…arrow_forward
- Life on Other Planets Forty-five percent of people believe that there is life on other planets in the universe. A scientist does not agree with this finding. He surveyed 110 randomly selected individuals and found 66 believed that there is life on other planets. At α=0.05, is there sufficient evidence to conclude that the percentage differs from 45? Use the P-value method with a graphing calculator. State the hypotheses and identify the claim with the correct hypothesis.

A sample of 340 randomly selected adult Americans were asked this question: “Do you use a remote start for your vehicle during the Winter?” 117 answered “yes.” Based on this, is it reasonable to assume that more than 33% of adult Americans use a remote start during the Winter? Set up the relevant hypotheses, show the sample is appropriate for this test, calculate a test statistic and P-value, decide whether or not to reject the null hypothesis, and put your conclusion in context of the scenario. Round P-value to 4 decimal places and test statistic to 2 decimal places. Use ∝= .05.

- A December 2017 Gallup Poll reported that 43% of Americans use the internet for an hour or more each day. You suspect that a greater proportion of students at your school use the internet that much. You take a random sample of 60 students and find that 36 of them use the internet for an hour or more each day. Assume your school has more than 600 students. You will test the hypotheses H, : p = 0.43, H,:p>0.43 , where p= the true proportion of students at your school who use the internet for an hour or more each day. Which of the following gives the correct test statistic for this test? 0.43 - 0.6 Z = (0.6)(0.4) 60 0.43-0.6 (0.6)(0.4) 600 0.6-0.43 (0.6)(0.4) 60 0.6 - 0.43 (0.43)(0.57) 60 36 - 60 (36)(24) 60arrow_forwardThe test statistic for this hypothesis?
