Question

You are conducting a study to see if the proportion of women over 40 who regularly have mammograms is significantly less than 0.66. You use a significance level of a=0.001.

      H0:P=0.66
      H1:P<0.66

You obtain a sample of size 176 in which there are 99 successes.

What is the test statistic for this sample? (Report answer accurate to 3 decimal places.)


What is the p-value for this sample? (Report answer accurate to 4 decimal places.)


This test statistic leads to a decision to

  • reject the null
  • accept the null
  • fail to reject the null



As such, the final conclusion is that

  • there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the proportion of women over 40 who regularly have mammograms is less than 0.66.
  • there is not sufficient evidence to conclude that the proportion of women over 40 who regularly have mammograms is less than 0.66.
  • there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the proportion of women over 40 who regularly have mammograms is equal to 0.66.
  • there is not sufficient evidence to conclude that the proportion of women over 40 who regularly have mammograms is equal to 0.66.
