A decade-old study found that the proportion of high school seniors who felt that "getting rich" was an important personal goal was 67%. Suppose that we have reason to believe that this proportion has changed, and we wish to carry out a hypothesis test to see if our belief can be supported. State the null hypothesis H, and the alternative hypothesis H, that we would use for this test.

Past records from a local hospital stated that the proportion of full-term babies born in the hospital who weigh less than seven pounds is 43%. Suppose that we have strong reason to believe the proportion is greater than 43%, and we wish to carry out a hypothesis test. State the null hypothesis H0 and the alternative hypothesis H1 that we would use for this test. H0: H1:

The shop floor manager in a dairy company believes that the milk packaging process unit for 1 liter packs is not working fine and needs calibration. If the Null Hypothesis is framed to be µ = 1 liter, what would be the alternate hypothesis?
A paint manufacturer advertises that one gallon of its paint will cover 400 square feet of an interior wall. Some local painters suspect the average coverage is considerably less and decide to conduct an experiment to find out. Which of the following are the correct null and alternative hypotheses to be tested? A construction company has a bid on two large construction projects. The president believes that the chances of winning the first contract is 55% and the chances of winning the second contract is 30% and that winning either contract is independent of winning the other. What are the chances the company will not win either contract? Spelling mistakes in a text are either “nonword errors” or “word errors.” A nonword error produces a string of letters that is not a word, such as “the” typed as “teh.” Word errors produce the wrong word, such as “loose” typed as “lose.” Nonword errors make up 25% of all errors. A human proofreader will catch 80% of nonword errors and 50% of…
If the hypothesis test results in a p-value of 0.08, would we be able to reject the null hypothesis if we were using alpha=0.05? If the hypothesis test results in a p-value of 0.95, would we be able to reject the null hypothesis if we were using alpha=0.05? If the hypothesis test results in a p-value of 0.02, would we be able to reject the null hypothesis if we were using alpha=0.01?
