Question

An official with campus dining services claimed that a majority of the students at her university had a campus meal plan. A reporter for the campus newspaper was skeptical of this and decided to investigate the situation. She took a random sample of 75 students and asked them if they had a meal plan. She then used Statcrunch software to construct the following output. What conclusion should we make from this output? Hypothesis test results: Outcomes in meal_plan Success : Yes p: Proportion of successes Ho:p=0.5 HA: p

Explanation / Answer

Since the P-value of 0.1493 is greater than 0.05(significance level), answer is Option C

We should not reject the null hypothesis, and there is insufficient evidence to conclude that less than half of the students have a meal plan
