5. According to a survey conducted with 132 adults by a sociology student, 73.4 % of them indicated that they were satisfied with their jobs. Test the claim that more than 70% of the people are satisfied with their jobs. Use a significance level of 0.01.
For each question you need to find the following
Step 1
b) < 2 points > Write the claim and its opposite , then determine which is the null hypothesis and which is the alternative hypothesis.
c) < 0.5 point >Write the type of test you are going to use ( LT , RT , or 2 T )
d) < 0.5 point > what distribution you are going to use ( z or t )
Step 2
Use a graphing Calculator: Find the calculated test statistic and the P- Value
i) < 0.5 > what did you use to find the CTS : Z- Test, T – Test , or 1-PropZtest ( choose one of them)
ii ) < 2 >Write the value of the calculated test statistics : C. T . S : ( choose z or t ) =
iii) < 1.5 point > P -value =
Step 3 Analyze
Traditional Method < 3 points> P-value Method. < 2 points >
For traditional , you need to Sketch the graph For P-value method, you need to do
Shade the required area P-value α Need to write the value of each
label the critical value/s compare the values ( < or > )
Label the C.T.S
Step 4 : Write
the ______________ that _______________
Null
Ho : p = 0.7
Alternate:
H1 : p > 0.7
(Right tail test)
Z distribution
Level of Significance, α =
0.01
Number of Items of Interest, x =
96.888
Sample Size, n = 132
Sample Proportion , p̂ = x/n =
0.7340
Standard Error , SE = √( p(1-p)/n ) =
0.0399
Z Test Statistic = ( p̂-p)/SE = (
0.7340 - 0.7 ) /
0.0399 = 0.8524
critical z value =
2.326 [Excel function =NORMSINV(α)
p-Value = 0.197 [Excel function
=NORMSDIST(-z)
Decision: p value>α ,do not reject null
hypothesis
There is not enough evidence to conclude that more than 70%
of the people are satisfied with their jobs
