He wonders whether the service algorithm does a good job of finding random songs that he will like more often than not. To test this, he listens to 50 songs chosen by the service at random and finds that he likes 32 of them. A magazine regularly tested products and gave the reviews to its customers. In one of its reviews, it tested 2 types of batteries and claimed that the batteries from company A outperformed batteries from company B in 108 of the tests. There were 200 tests. Company B decided to sue the magazine, claiming that the results were not significantly different from 50% and that the magazine was slandering its good name. A candidate in an election lost by 5.8% of the vote. The candidate sued the state and said that more than 5.8% of the ballots were defective and not counted by the voting machine, so a full recount would need to be done. His opponent wanted to ask for the case to be dismissed, so she had a government official from the state randomly select 500 ballots and count how many were defective. The official found 21 defective ballots. A researcher claims that the incidence of a certain type of cancer is 5%. To test this claim, a random sample of 4000 people are checked and 170 are found to have the cancer. A researcher is investigating a government claim that the unemployment rate is 5%.

What are the null and alternative hypothesis for this hypothesis test. An Airline company claims that in its recent advertisement that at least 94% of passenger luggage that is lost is recovered and reunited with their customer within 1 day. Hunter is a graduate student studying statistics. For a research project, Hunter wants to find out whether there is sufficient evidence in support of the airline company’s claim. He randomly selects 315 passengers whose luggage was lost by the airlines and found out that 276 of those passengers were reunited with their luggage within 1 day.

Several of his friends do not believe him, so he decides to do a hypothesis test, at a 10% significance level, to persuade them. He hits 23 drives. The mean distance of the sample drives is 210 meters. Horace knows from experience that the standard deviation for his drive distance is 14meters.

MATH225 Week 7 Hypothesis Testing Q & A


1. Steve listens to his favorite streaming music service when he works out. He wonders whether the
service algorithm does a good job of finding random songs that he will like more often than not. To
test this, he listens to 50 songs chosen by the service at random and finds that he likes 32 of them.
Use Excel to test whether Steve will like a randomly selected song more than not and then draw a conclusion in the
context of a problem. Use α = 0.05.
Ho: p = ≤ 0.5(50%) p = 0.5
Ha: p = > 0.5 (strictly ¿>≠ )
P-value = 0.02 which is <α =0.05 we reject Ho and support the Ha

Answer: Reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence to prove that Steve will like a random selected song
more often than not.
2. A magazine regularly tested products and gave the reviews to its customers. In one of its reviews, it
tested 2 types of batteries and claimed that the batteries from company A outperformed batteries
from company B in 108 of the tests. There were 200 tests. Company B decided to sue the magazine,
claiming that the results were not significantly different from 50% and that the magazine was
slandering its good name.

,Use Excel to test whether the true proportion of times that Company A’s batteries outperformed Company B’s batteries
is different from 0.5. Identify the p=value rounding it to 3 decimal places.




Ho: p = 0.5 Ha ≠ 0.5 (two tailed test) n = 200 (α is not given so leave it 0.05)

Left-Tailed (<) 1.644854
Two-Tailed (≠) ± 1.959964
Answer: 0.258 (because it is a two tailed test). We are not rejecting the null hypothesis and we do not have evidence to
support the alternative hypothesis.
3. A candidate in an election lost by 5.8% of the vote. The candidate sued the state and said that more
than 5.8% of the ballots were defective and not counted by the voting machine, so a full recount
would need to be done. His opponent wanted to ask for the case to be dismissed, so she had a
government official from the state randomly select 500 ballots and count how many were defective.
The official found 21 defective ballots.
Use Excel to test if the candidates claim is true and that < 5.8% of the ballots were defective. Identify the p=value
rounding to 3 decimal places.

4. A researcher claims that the incidence of a certain type of cancer is < 5%. To test this claim, a
random sample of 4000 people are checked and 170 are found to have the cancer.
The following is the set up for the hypothesis:
Ho = 0.05
Ha = < 0.05
In the example the p-value was determined to be 0.015.
Come to a conclusion and interpret the results of this hypothesis test for a proportion (use a significance level of 5%)
Answer: The decision is to reject the null hypothesis. The conclusion is that there is enough evidence to support the
claim.


5. A researcher is investigating a government claim that the unemployment rate is < 5%. TO test this
claim, a random sample of 1500 people is taken and it is determined that 61 people were
unemployed.
Ho: p = 0.05 Ha: p < 0.05

6. An economist claims that the proportion of people that plan to purchase a fully electric vehicle as
their next car is greater than 65%.
To test this claim, a random sample of 750 people were asked if they planned to purchase a fully electric vehicle as their
next car. Of this 750, 513 indicated that they plan to purchase an electric vehicle.
Ho: p = 0.65 Ha; p = >0.65
