Testing Claim about a Proportion.
Apply p-value method to evaluate the claim that percent
of new small businesses (population proportion)
survived 5 years is less than 40%.
H0 - population proportion p = 0.4
H1 - population proportion p < 0.4
Sample of N=80 new small businesses were checked after 5
years and found that 30 of them survived.
Calculate sample proportion ps
Calculate z-value for the test statistics is case of
population proportion:
z =
ps is a sample proportion,
p is a population proportion, taken from Ho,
N - sample size.
b) Use attached Table A-2 for Normal Distribution to find
p-value.
c) At the significance level 0.05 make decision: reject
or do not reject H0.
