Question

A newspaper is conducting a statewide survey concerning the race for governor. The newspaper will take a simple random sample of n registered voters and determine X = the number of voters that will vote for the Democratic candidate. Is there evidence that a clear majority of the population will vote for the Democratic candidate? To answer this, they will test the hypotheses H 0: p = 0.50 versus H a: p > 0.50. If n = 120 and X = 64, what is the P-value for this hypothesis test? less than 0.0002 0.0104 0.0330 0.2326

Step 1

- Null hypothesis (H0): p = 0.50, where p is the proportion of voters who will vote for the Democratic candidate. - Alternative hypothesis (Ha): p > 0.50, suggesting that more than half of the voters will vote for the Democratic candidate. Show more…
