Hypothesis Testing with One Sample

Class Time: __________________________
Name: _____________________________________

  1. H0: _______
  2. Ha: _______
  3. In words, CLEARLY state what your random variable X ¯ or P represents.
  4. State the distribution to use for the test.
  5. What is the test statistic?
  6. What is the p-value? In one or two complete sentences, explain what the p-value means for this problem.
  7. Use the previous information to sketch a picture of this situation. CLEARLY, label and scale the horizontal axis and shade the region(s) corresponding to the p-value.
  8. Indicate the correct decision (“reject” or “do not reject” the null hypothesis), the reason for it, and write an appropriate conclusion, using complete sentences.
