Math Problem Statement
Since an instant replay system for tennis was introduced at a major tournament, men challenged
13861386
referee calls, with the result that
426426
of the calls were overturned. Women challenged
754754
referee calls, and
227227
of the calls were overturned. Use a
0.010.01
significance level to test the claim that men and women have equal success in challenging calls. Complete parts (a) through (c) below.

Part 1
a. Test the claim using a hypothesis test.
Consider the first sample to be the sample of male tennis players who challenged referee calls and the second sample to be the sample of female tennis players who challenged referee calls. What are the null and alternative hypotheses for the hypothesis test?
A.
Upper H 0H0:
p 1p1equals=p 2p2
Upper H 1H1:
p 1p1less than<p 2p2
B.
Upper H 0H0:
p 1p1equals=p 2p2
Upper H 1H1:
p 1p1not equals≠p 2p2
Your answer is correct.
C.
Upper H 0H0:
p 1p1greater than or equals≥p 2p2
Upper H 1H1:
p 1p1not equals≠p 2p2
D.
Upper H 0H0:
p 1p1not equals≠p 2p2
Upper H 1H1:
p 1p1equals=p 2p2
E.
Upper H 0H0:
p 1p1equals=p 2p2
Upper H 1H1:
p 1p1greater than>p 2p2
F.
Upper H 0H0:
p 1p1less than or equals≤p 2p2
Upper H 1H1:
p 1p1not equals≠p 2p2
Part 2
Identify the test statistic.
zequals=0.300.30
(Round to two decimal places as needed.)
Part 3
Identify the P-value.
P-valueequals=0.7640.764
(Round to three decimal places as needed.)
Part 4
What is the conclusion based on the hypothesis test?
The P-value is
greater than
the significance level of
alphaαequals=0.010.01,
so
fail to reject
the null hypothesis. There
is not sufficient
evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that women and men have equal success in challenging calls.
Part 5
b. Test the claim by constructing an appropriate confidence interval.
The
9999%
confidence interval is
enter your response hereless than<left parenthesis p 1 minus p 2 right parenthesisp1−p2less than<enter your response here.
(Round to three decimal places as needed.)
