Question 1 (1 point) Question 1 Unsaved
As of 2012, the proportion of students who use a MacBook as their primary computer is 0.31. You believe that at your university the proportion is actually greater than 0.31. The hypotheses for this scenario are Null Hypothesis: p 0.31, Alternative Hypothesis: p > 0.31. You conduct a random sample and run a hypothesis test yielding a p-value of 0.0002. What is the appropriate conclusion? Conclude at the 5% level of significance.
Question 1 options:
1) The proportion of students that use a MacBook as their primary computer is significantly less than 0.31.
2) The proportion of students that use a MacBook as their primary computer is less than or equal to 0.31.
3) We did not find enough evidence to say the proportion of students that use a MacBook as their primary computer is larger than 0.31.
4) The proportion of students that use a MacBook as their primary computer is significantly different from 0.31.
5) The proportion of students that use a MacBook as their primary computer is significantly larger than 0.31.
Explanation / Answer
Since 0.0002 is less than our significance level, so we reject the null hypothesis and our conclusion is,
5) the proportion of students that use a MacBook as their primary computer is significantly larger than 0.31
