You want to know whether in the population, men and women differ in terms of their internet use. You draw random samples of men and women, and ask them the following question: "In the past seven days, has the total amount of time you spent using the internet exceeded twelve hours?" The respondents answer "yes" or "no." The percentage answering "yes" and the sample sizes are given below. In the population, is there a difference between men and women regarding internet use? Set alpha at .05. Your hunch is that there is a difference between men and women in the population, but you make no claims about the direction of the difference. Round to two places of the decimal. Interpret your results. Men Women 21% say "yes" 16% say "yes" n1 = 100 n2 = 110
For all hypothesis testing, you must use the five-step method.
