Step 1

1 of 2

Given:

=

60

n=60

CONDITIONS

We will use the $\textbf{one-proportion

z-test}$, since we are interested in testing the claim about one population proportion.

Conditions

Conditions: Random sample, 10% condition, Success-failure condition

Random sample: Satisfied, because the washers were randomly checked.

10% condition: Satisfied, because the 60 washers is less than 10% of all washers.

Success-failure condition: Not satisfied, since

0

np

0

and

(

1

0

)

n(1−p

0

) are not both at least 10.

0

=

60

(

0.02

)

=

1.2

<

10np0=60(0.02)=1.2<10�(1−�0)=60(1−0.02)=58.8≥10n(1−p0)=60(1−0.02)=58.8≥0

Thus we note that all conditions are not satisfied and thus we should not proceed with the test.
