With this data, they test the following hypotheses. LaTeX: H_0H 0: Of Millennial students at their campus, 36% live at home with their parents. LaTeX: H_aH a: More than 36% of Millennial students at their campus live at home with their parents. In order to assess the evidence, which question best describes what we need to determine? Group of answer choices If we examine a sample of students at their campus and determine the proportion who still live at home with their parents, how likely is that proportion to be 36%? If we examine the proportion of students at their campus who still live at home with their parents, how likely is that proportion to be 36%? If we examine the proportion of students at their campus who still live at home with their parents, how likely is that proportion to be more than 36%? If we examine a sample of students at their campus and determine the proportion who still live at home with their parents, how likely is that proportion to be 43% or more? If we examine the proportion of students at their campus who still live at home with their parents, how likely is that proportion to be 43%?

Answer:

The right question that describes what we need to examine is that:

If we examine the proportion of students at their campus who still live at home with their parents, how likely is that proportion to be more than 36%?

Explanation:

For hypthesis testing, it is the p-value that needs to be obtained, to know the significance of the result. It is in the definition of what the p-value stands for that one would be able to pick which question best describes what we need to determine?

The p-value is actually defined as the probability of obtaining results as extreme as the observed results in the statistical analysis provided that the null hypothesis is true.

It is the probability of obtaining the claim to be tested that is usually contained in the alternative hypothesis, provided the null hypothesis is true.

So, since the null hypothesis states that the proportion of Millennial students at their campus, that live at home with their parents = 36%

The p-value is how likely it is or the probability that more than 36% of Millennial students at their campus live at home with their parents.

Hope this Helps!!!
