According to the exit polls during the election for the Vermont governor, 457 of the 837 voters polled voted for Douglas. Conduct a test of hypothesis to determine if there is enough evidence to declare Douglas the winner BEFORE the polls close. So, think about it...for your alternate hypothesis...what % of the vote does a candidate need to win a two-way race? Is it more than 51%? No, it's anything greater than 50%. And remember that you nullI hypothesis MUST be an equal sign. Show your work, show all six steps. Do step 5 twice. The first time, use a level of significance (alpha) of 1%. For the second step 5, use a level of significance (alpha) of 0.1%. Show all six steps; 0 thru 5.
