The results of a recent poll on the preference of shoppers regarding two products are shown below:
Product | Shoppers Favoring this Product | Shoppers Surveyed |
1 | 550 | 750 |
2 | 615 | 875 |
Suppose we wanted to see if there was a significant difference in the preference of these two products.
What would be the correct alternative hypothesis for the above test? [ Select ] ["p1 is not equal to p2", "p1 < p2", "p1 > p2", "p1 = p2"]
Find the correct pooled proportion. [ Select ] ["1345.68", "0.7650", "0.6894", "0.7676", "0.0647", "1426.87"]
What would be the correct test statistic? [ Select ] ["3.0129", "0.8895", "5.1931", "3.0249"]
What would be the corresponding critical value, assuming alpha was 1%? [ Select ] ["2.5758", "-2.3263", "+/- 2.5758", "+/- 2.3263", "2.3263", "-2.5758"]
What would be the corresponding p-value? [ Select ] ["0.0026", "0.0024", "0.0013", "0.1869", "0.0012", "0"]
At a 1% significance level, can we conclude that there is a significant difference in the preference of the two products? [ Select ] ["We cannot.", "We can."]
Given:
The results of a recent poll on the preference of shoppers regarding two products are shown below:
Product | Shoppers Favoring this Product | Shoppers Surveyed |
