Question

We conduct a study to determine whether the majority of community college students plan to vote in the next presidential election. We choose a significance level of 0.05. We survey 650 randomly selected community college students and find that 54% of them plan to vote. The P-value is 0.02. LaTeX: H_0H 0: 50% of community college students plan to vote in the next presidential election. LaTeX: H_aH a: More than 50% of community college students plan to vote in the next presidential election. What can we conclude

Answer 1

most of the students will vote in the following presidential elections because the p value is lower than the level of statistical significance

Explanation:

Alfa=0.05

so we have to

P-value is 0.02

considering that alpha is greater than p

P-value (0.02) < alpha (0.05)

we conclude that the null hypothesis is rejected

Interpretation

Taking the alpha value as the statistical level of significance, it can be said that more than 50% of the students will vote in the following presidential elections.
