An entomologist writes an article in a scientific jour claims that fewer than 16 in ten thousand male fire unable to produce light due to a genetic mutation. following are the correct null hypothesis and alterna hypothesis? OH_0:p=0.0016, H_1:p<0.0016 OH_0:p<0.0016, H_1:p=0.0016 OH_0:p=0.0016, H_1:p>0.0016 OH_0: p>0.0016, H_1:p=0.0016

Step 1
The null hypothesis (H0) is a statement of no effect or no difference. In this case, the null hypothesis is that the proportion (p) of male fireflies unable to produce light due to a genetic mutation is equal to 0.0016. The alternative hypothesis (H1) is a Show more…

An entomologist writes an article in a scientific journal which claims that fewer than 17 in ten thousand male fireflies are unable to produce light due to a genetic mutation. Use the parameter p, the true proportion of fireflies unable to produce light. Express the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis in symbolic form. A. H0: p = 0.0017 H1: p < 0.0017 B. H0: p = 0.0017 H1: p > 0.0017 C. H0: p > 0.0017 H1: p ≤ 0.0017 D. H0: p < 0.0017 H1: p ≥ 0.0017
