Question
Test the claim that the proportion of men who own cats is smaller than 20% at the .10 significance level.

The null and alternative hypothesis would be:
  • H0:P=0.2
    H1:P>0.2
  • H0:U=0.2
    H1:U>0.2
  • H0:U=0.2
    H1:U≠0.2
  • H0:P=0.2
    H1:P<0.2
  • H0:P=0.2
    H1:P≠0.2
  • H0:U=0.2
    H1:U<0.2


Based on a sample of 45 people, 13% owned cats

The test statistic is  (to 3 decimals)

The critical value is  (to 2 decimals)

Based on this we
  • Fail to reject the null hypothesis
  • Reject the null hypothesis
