Question

You wish to test the following claim (HaHa) at a significance level of α=0.01.       Ho:p1=p2
                   Ha:p1<p

You obtain 148 successes in a sample of size n1=577 from the first population. You obtain 230 successes in a sample of n2=658 from the second population. For this test, you should NOT use the continuity correction, and you should use the normal distribution as an approximation for the binomial distribution.

What is the z-score of the critical value? (Report answer accurate to three decimal places.)

What is the standardized test statistic for this sample? (Report answer accurate to three decimal places.)

The test statistic is...

  • in the critical region
  • not in the critical region

 

This test statistic leads to a decision to...

  • reject the null
  • accept the null
  • fail to reject the null
