Chapter 15Solution Sheets

Solution Sheet: Hypothesis Testing for Single Mean and Single Proportion*

This module provides a solution sheet for the Hypothesis Testing: Single Mean and Single Proportion chapter of the Collaborative Statistics textbook/collection.

Class Time:

Name:

a. Ho:
b. Ha:
c. In words, CLEARLY state what your random variable _autogen-svg2png-0003.png or P' represents.
d. State the distribution to use for the test.
e. What is the test statistic?
f. What is the p-value? In 1 – 2 complete sentences, explain what the p-value means for this problem.
g. Use the previous information to sketch a picture of this situation. CLEARLY, label and scale the horizontal axis and shade the region(s) corresponding to the p-value.
