In a random sample of 1000 adult Americans, only 430 could name at least one justice who is currently serving on the US Supreme Court. A claim is that fewer than half of adult Americans can name at least one justice who is currently serving on the US Supreme Court. State the null hypothesis.

H o : p <.5, where p is the true proportion of Americans who can name one justice currently serving.

H o :p >.5 where p is the true proportion of Americans who can name one justice currently serving.

What is the 5 steps procedure for hypothesis testing?

1) State the hypotheses and identify the claim 2) Find the critical value 3) Compute the test value 4) Make the decision (reject or not reject) 5) Summarize the results

A level of significance of 5% means:

There's a 5% chance we'll be wrong if we reject the null hypothesis.

There's a 5% chance we're wrong

There's a 5% chance we'll be wrong if we fail to reject the null hypothesis

There's a 5% chance you'll get an A on the test.

It is said that 60% of families own a pet. Of a sample of 95 families, 70 owned pets. Perform a hypothesis test to determine whether the percent of families who own pets is different than 60%. Use a α = 0.01 \alpha=0.01 α = 0 . 0 1 level of significance.

A recruiter for the Super Teachers School Board advertised that the average teacher's salary in a certain competing district is less than what his district offers, $50,000.

Environmental advocates believe that there is too much Mercury in a town's lake. To test their claim, they took 7 samples of water from the lake and measured the concentration of mercury, in milligrams per cubic meter, in each sample. Assume the population distribution is normal. The sample results were: 1.02, 1.23, 0.91, 1.29, 1.01, 1.35, 1.43 Perform a hypothesis test to determine if the mean concentration of mercury is greater than 1 milligram per cubic meter.
