Question

You are conducting a study to see if the probability of catching the flu this year is significantly more than 0.42. You use a significance level of α=0.005.

      H0:p=0.42
      H1:p>0.42

You obtain a sample of size n=711 in which there are 318 successes.

(a) What is the critical value for this test?(Report answer accurate to three decimal places.)
CV =

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

(c) The Test Statistic is ________ than the Critical Value;

  • more extreme
  • less extreme

(d) so we _________ the null hypothesis.

  • reject H_0
  • fail to reject H_0



(e) What is the p-value for this sample? (Round ONLY the final answer accurate to four decimal places. Do not use any rounded values in the calculation.)
p-value =

(f) The p-value is...

  • less than (or equal to) α
  • greater than α



(g) This p-value leads to a decision to...

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



(h) As such, the final conclusion is that...

  • There is sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the probability of catching the flu this year is more than 0.42.
  • There is not sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the probability of catching the flu this year is more than 0.42.
  • The sample data support the claim that the probability of catching the flu this year is more than 0.42.
  • There is not sufficient sample evidence to support the claim that the probability of catching the flu this year is more than 0.42.
