Question

Test the claim that the proportion of people who own cats is larger than 90% at the 0.01 significance level.

The null and alternative hypothesis would be:

 

H0:p≥0.9H0:p≥0.9
H1:p<0.9H1:p<0.9
H0:p≤0.9H0:p≤0.9
H1:p>0.9H1:p>0.9
H0:μ≥0.9H0:μ≥0.9
H1:μ<0.9
H0:μ≤0.9
H1:μ>0.9
H0:μ=0.9
H1:μ≠0.9
H0:p=0.9
H1:p≠0.9



The test is:

 

right-tailed
left-tailed
two-tailed



Based on a sample of 800 people, 92% owned cats

The test statistic is:  (to 2 decimals)

The p-value is:  (to 2 decimals)

Based on this we:

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