Math Problem Statement

What is the test statistic for a hypothesis test involving a population proportion, where the sample proportion is 0.47, the hypothesized population proportion is 0.90, and the sample size is 700?

Solution

Let's go throughTo the compute the test statistic for the given problem, let's break it down step by step:

Plugging in the values:

  1. Numerator: p^p0=0.470.90=0.43\hat{p} - p_0 = 0.47 - 0.90 = -0.43

  2. Denominator:

    = \sqrt{\frac{0..9 \cdot 0.190}{700}} = \sqrt{\frac \{0.09}{700times}} = \sqrt{0.00012857} = 0 (.01134 \1]
