a)
To find p-value for this test.
a)
Answer to Problem 9.37E
The p-value = 0.0091
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Null and alternative hypothesis:
Test statistic = z = 2.36
Calculation:
Test statistic z = 2.36
Using the P-value approach:
P(Z>2.36) = 1-P(Z<2.36)
P(Z>2.36) = 1-0.9909-=0.0091
Using excel formula, =NORMSDIST(2.36)
The p-value is p = 0.0091
If a = 0.05 then p = 0. 0091<0.05, the result is significant.
If a = 0.01 then p = 0. 0094<0.01, the result is significant.
b)
To check significances.
b)
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The p-value is p = 0.0091
Calculation:
The p-value is p = 0.0091
If a = 0.05 then p = 0. 0091<0.05, the result is significant.
If a = 0.01 then p = 0. 0094<0.01, the result is significant.
