Question

The mayor of a town believes that over 47G% of the residents favor construction of an adjoining community. Is there sufficient evidence at the 0.050.05 level to support the mayor's claim

Answer 1

There is sufficient evidence at the 0.05 level

Null hypothesis ; H0 : p = 0.47

Alternative hypothesis : H1 : p ≠ 0.47

Explanation:

percentage favoring construction of adjoining community = 47%

level = 0.05

To determine if the 0.05 confidence level is enough to support the major's claim we have to state the Null and alternative hypothesis

Null hypothesis ; H0 : p = 0.47

Alternative hypothesis : H1 : p ≠ 0.47
