Question
In a survey of 240 students in an elementary statistics class at the University of California-Davis (UCD), 30 said that they were left-handed and 210 said that they were right-handed. Assume that the students are representative of all students at the school. Does this provide evidence that the proportion of UCD students who are left-handed differs from the national proportion of 0.10? Carry out the five steps of the hypothesis test for this situation. (Use ? = 0.05.)
Set up the null and alternative hypothesis. (Enter != for ≠ as needed.)
H0:
Ha:
Compute the test statistics for this situation. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
z =
Calculate the p-value for the test. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
p-value =
On the basis of the p-value, make a conclusion for this situation.
Reject the null hypothesis because the p-value is greater than 0.05.
Do not reject the null hypothesis because the p-value is smaller than 0.05.
Reject the null hypothesis because the p-value is smaller than 0.05.
Do not reject the null hypothesis because the p-value is greater than 0.05.
Write a conclusion to this situation in words.
We _____ conclude that the proportion of UCD students who are left-handed differs from the national proportion.
