In a recent poll, 778 adults were asked to identify their favorite seat when they fly, and 492 of them chose a window seat. use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that the majority of adults prefer window seats when they fly. identify the null hypothesis, alternative hypothesis, test statistic, p-vahie, conclusion about the null hypothesis, and final conclusion that addresses the original claim. use the p-value method and the normal distribution as an approximation to the binomial distribution.

which of the following is the hypothesis test to be conducted?

what is the test statistic?

what is the p-value?

what is the conclusion about the null hypothesis?

Answer from: theresaeleanor

Null hypothesis: $p \leq 0.5$

Alternative hypothesis: p 0.5

$z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}}$ (1)

$p_v =P(Z7.36)=9.19x10^{-14}$

Since the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level given $\alpha=0.01$ we have p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 1% of significance the proportion of adults prefer window seats when they fly is significantly higher than 0.5 .

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

n=778 represent the random sample taken

X=492 represent the people that chose a window seat.

$\hat p=\frac{492}{778}=0.632$ estimated proportion of people that chose a window seat.

p_o=0.5 is the value that we want to test

$\alpha=0.01$ represent the significance level

Confidence=99% or 0.99

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

p_v represent the p value (variable of interest)

2) Concepts and formulas to use

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the majority of adults prefer window seats when they fly:

Null hypothesis: $p \leq 0.5$

Alternative hypothesis: p 0.5

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statisitc, and the is given by:

$z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}}$ (1)

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion $\hat p$ is significantly different from a hypothesized value p_o .

3) Calculate the statistic

Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:

$z=\frac{0.632 -0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{778}}}=7.36$

4) Statistical decision

It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.

The significance level provided $\alpha=0.01$ . The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.

Since is a right tailed test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(Z7.36)=9.19x10^{-14}$
