Question

Test the claim that the proportion of men who own cats is significantly different than 20% at the 0.2 significance level.

The null and alternative hypothesis would be:

H0:p=0.2H0:p=0.2
H1:p≠0.2H1:p≠0.2
H0:μ=H0:μ=
H1:μ>H1:μ>
H0:μ=H0:μ=
H1:μ<H1:μ<
H0:μ=H0:μ=
H1:μ≠H1:μ≠
H0:p=0.2H0:p=0.2
H1:p>0.2H1:p>0.2
H0:p=0.2H0:p=0.2
H1:p<0.2H1:p<0.2



The test is:

left-tailed
two-tailed
right-tailed



Based on a sample of 65 men, 17651765 of the men owned cats

The test statistic is: z=z= (to 2 decimals)

The positive critical value is zC=zC=1.28155.

Thus the test statistic     in the critical region.

Based on this we:

  • Reject the null hypothesis
  • Fail to reject the null hypothesis
  •
