: The following hypotheses are given.
H0pie=0
H1pie does not =1


A sample of 120 observations revealed that p = .30. At the .05 significance level, can the null hypothesis be rejected?
State the decision rule.
Compute the value of the test statistic.
What is your decision regarding the null hypothesis?
Note: It is recommended that you use the five-step hypothesis-testing procedure in solving the following problems.

The following hypotheses are given.
Ho: p=0
H1: p does not =1
Comment: Your Ho and H1 are meaningless.
------------------------
A sample of 120 observations revealed that p = .30. At the .05 significance level, can the null hypothesis be rejected?
State the decision rule. If by this you mean the critical values the
answer is z = + or - 1.96
-------------------------------
Compute the value of the test statistic.
z(0.3) = (0.3 - p)/sqrt(pq/120)
Comment: We would need a realistic "p" from Ho.

What is your decision regarding the null hypothesis?
