"Trydint" bubble-gum company claims that 3 out of 10 people prefer their gum to "Eklypse". Test their claim at the 95 confidence level.
The null and alternative hypothesis in symbols would be:
H0:0.3H0:0.3
H1:>0.3H1:>0.3
H0:=0.3H0:=0.3
H1:0.3H1:0.3
H0:0.3H0:0.3
H1:<0.3H1:<0.3
H0:p=0.3H0:p=0.3
H1:p0.3H1:p0.3
H0:p0.3H0:p0.3
H1:p>0.3H1:p>0.3
H0:p0.3H0:p0.3
H1:p<0.3
part b:
The null hypothesis in words would be:
The proportion of all people that prefer Trydint gum is 0.3
The average of people that prefer Trydint gum is 0.3.
The proportion of people in a sample that prefers Trydint gum is 0.3.
The proportion of all people that prefer Trydint gum is less than 0.3.
The average of people that prefer Trydint gum is not 0.3.
The proportion of all people that prefer Trydint gum is greater than 0.3.
The proportion of people in a sample that prefer Trydint gum is not 0.3
Based on a sample of 440 people, 125 said they prefer "Trydint" gum to "Eklypse".
The point estimate is: (to 3 decimals)
The 95 % confidence interval is: to (to 3 decimals)
Based on this we:
Fail to reject the null hypothesis
Reject the null hypothesis

Explanation / Answer
a)
H0:p=0.3
H1:p0.3
b)The proportion of all people that prefer Trydint gum is 0.3
point estimate is: 125/440 =0.284
95 % confidence interval is 0.242 ; 0.326
Reject the null hypothesis
for 95 % CI value of z= 1.9600 margin of error E=z*std error = 0.042 lower confidence bound=sample proportion-margin of error 0.242 Upper confidence bound=sample proportion+margin of error 0.326Related Questions
