- 8) Each of 49 subjects tastes two unmarked cups of coffee and says which he or she prefers. One cup in each pair contains instant coffee, the other fresh-brewed coffee. 30 of the subjects prefer the fresh-brewed coffee. Take p to be the proportion of the population who would prefer fresh-brewed coffee in a blind tasting. Test the claim that a majority of people prefer the taste of fresh-brewed coffee.(a) H0: p = ? and Ha: p > ?(b) What is the test statistic? (Use 2 decimal places)(c) What is the p-value? (Use 4 decimal places)arrow_forwardThe toll plaza on Route 1 in Dover has four tollbooths open to all vehicles. Ms. Timlin conducted a chi-square goodness of fit test to see if all of the booths are used in equally. A chi-square value of 23.4 was calculated, resulting in a p-value of 0.006. Which of the following is correct? a. There is sufficient evidence to suggest that the tollbooths are not used in equal proportions. Selected:b. There is sufficient evidence to suggest that the tollbooths are used in equal proportions.This answer is incorrect. c. The tollbooths are used in equal proportions. d. There is insufficient evidence to suggest that the tollbooths are used in equal proportions. e. There is insufficient evidence to suggest that the tollbooths are not used in equal proportions.arrow_forwardA researcher conducts a hypothesis test using a sample from an unknown population.

- A survey claims that 9 out of 10 doctors (i.e., 90%) recommend brand Z for their patients who have children. To test this claim against the alternative that the actual proportion of doctors who recommend brand Z is less than 90%, a random sample of doctors was taken. Suppose the test statistic is z = -1.95. Can we conclude that H0 should be rejected at the and level?

A scientist does not agree with this finding. He surveyed 110 randomly selected individuals and found 66 believed that there is life on other planets. At α=0.05, is there sufficient evidence to conclude that the percentage differs from 45? Use the P-value method with a graphing calculator. State the hypotheses and identify the claim with the correct hypothesis. H0 : p=0.45 ▼not claim H1 : p≠0.45 ▼claim This hypothesis test is a ▼two-tailed test. Find the P-value.
