Procedure:        Two Proportions Z Hypothesis Test

Assumptions: (select everything that applies)

  • Normal populations
  • Sample sizes are both greater than 30
  • Population standard deviations are known
  • Paired samples
  • Population standard deviation are unknown but assumed equal
  • Population standard deviation are unknown
  • Simple random samples
  • Independent samples
  • The number of positive and negative responses are both greater than 10 for both samples
