If a school administrator claims that less than 50% of the students are dissatisfied with the food served in the school canteen. The claim used a sample data obtained from a survey of 500 students of the school wherein 54% indicated their dissatisfaction with the food served in the school canteen. Which of the following is the appropriate alternative hypothesis?p= 0.50p < 0.50p > 0.50p ≠ 0.50

A hypothesis test is done in which the alternative hypothesis is that more than 10% of the population is left-handed.The p-value for the test is calculated to be 0.18Assume an 85% confidence level, Which statement is correct?

In testing the hypothesesH0: μ = 75.HA: μ < 75,the p-value is found to be 0.042, and the sample mean is 80. Which of the following statements is true?Group of answer choicesNone of the above statements is correct.The probability of observing a sample mean at most as large as 75 from a population whose mean is 100 is 0.042.The probability that the population mean is smaller than 75 is 0.042.The smallest value of α that would lead to the rejection of the null hypothesis is 0.042.

Suppose that a major polling organization wanted to test the hypothesis that there was a change in the president’s “approval rating” since last month. Last month, 35% of the representative sample of registered voters approved of the president. For this month, the null hypothesis was that the approval rating equals 35% and the alternative hypothesis is that the approval rating does not equal 35%. The significance level for this test was 0.05.The results of the hypothesis test of the new survey showed a p-value of 0.008.Which of the following statements is correct? Check all that apply. The results were statistically significant. The results were not statistically significant. The null hypothesis should be rejected. The null hypothesis should be accepted. The null hypothesis cannot be rejected.

What is the appropriate alternative hypothesis if a certain senior high school, a study found that 972 out that 1,100 Grade 12 students use smartphones. Using α = 0.10 level, is there enough evidence to conclude that the percentage of students who are using smartphones is different from 25%? Ha: p > 0.25Ha: p < 0.25Ha: p =0.25Ha: p ≠ 0.2

A researcher would like to estimate p, the proportion of U.S. adults who support raising the federal minimum wage.Due to a limited budget, the researcher obtained opinions from a random sample of only 1,432 U.S. adults. With this sample size, the researcher can be 95% confident that the obtained sample proportion will differ from the true proportion (p) by no more than which of the following percentages (answers are rounded)? 0.07% 2.6% 3.0% 5.2%
