Question

A computer manufacturing company claims that only 7.5% of their computers are returned. Kelly thinks that the company is misrepresenting the true proportion of computers that are returned, and that the true proportion is higher than they claim. She wants to test this using α = 0.01. Kelly takes a sample of 220 computers and observes that 25 are returned. Assume a normal sampling distribution.

(d) Based on the p-value, Kelly should the null hypothesis.

(e) This data sufficient evidence to conclude that the true proportion of computers is higher than claimed.

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
