Question
Suppose that in a random selection of 100 colored​ candies, 22​% of them are blue. The candy company claims that the percentage of blue candies is equal to 30​%. Use a 0.10 significance level to test that claim. Identify the null and alternative hypotheses for this test. Choose the correct answer below. A. Upper H 0​: pequals0.3 Upper H 1​: pgreater than0.3 B. Upper H 0​: pequals0.3 Upper H 1​: pnot equals0.3 C. Upper H 0​: pequals0.3 Upper H 1​: pless than0.3 D. Upper H 0​: pnot equals0.3 Upper H 1​: pequals0.3 Identify the test statistic for this hypothesis test. The test statistic for this hypothesis test is nothing. ​(Round to two decimal places as​ needed.) Identify the​ P-value for this hypothesis test. The​ P-value for this hypothesis test is nothing. ​(Round to three decimal places as​ needed.) Identify the conclusion for this hypothesis test. A. Fail to reject Upper H 0. There is sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the percentage of blue candies is equal to 30​% B. Fail to reject Upper H 0. There is not sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the percentage of blue candies is equal to 30​% C. Reject Upper H 0. There is not sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the percentage of blue candies is equal to 30​% D. Reject Upper H 0. There is sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the percentage of blue candies is equal to 30​%
