Question 1169341: Could you PLEASE SHOW me how to solve problem?
Provide an appropriate response.
A hypothesis test is to be performed. State the null and alternative hypotheses.
A consumer group believes that the proportion of defects among computers produced by one manufacturer is greater than the 2% claimed by the company.
Select one:
A.
Null hypothesis: proportion of defectives = 2%
Alternative hypothesis: proportion of defectives > 2%
B.
Null hypothesis: proportion of defectives < 2%
Alternative hypothesis: proportion of defectives > 2%
C.
Null hypothesis: proportion of defectives > 2%
Alternative hypothesis: proportion of defectives = 2%
D.
Null hypothesis: proportion of defectives = 2%
Alternative hypothesis: proportion of defectives ≥ 2% Answer by Theo(13342) (Show Source):

A hypothesis test is to be performed. State the null and alternative hypotheses.
A consumer group believes that the proportion of defects among computers produced by one manufacturer is greater than the 2% claimed by the company.
the company claims that the proportion of defects is equal to 2%.
the consumer group believes that the proportion of defects is greater than 2%.
the claim of the consumer group is the alternate hypothesis.
the claim of the company is the null hypothesis.
the null hypothesis is what is has been assumed to be.
the alternate hypothesis is the claim that it is not what it has been assumed to be.
look for the null hypothesis to be equal to 2%.
that would be selection A or D.
among those, look for the alternate hypothesis to be greater than 2%.
that would be selection A.
selection A looks to be the closest to the claims of both the company and the consumer group, so go with selection A.
