Of a random sample of 148 accounting majors, 75 rated a sense of
humor as a very important trait to their career performance. This
same view was held by 81 of an independent random sample of 178
finance majors. Test that the null hypothesis that at least
one-half of all finance majors rate a sense of humor as very
important.
1. Select the most appropriate hypothesis test, setting the
null hypothesis that at least one-half of all finance majors rate a
sense of humor as very important
A) H_0: P ≤ 0.5; H_1: P>0.5
B) H_0: P ≥ 0.5; H_1: P<0.5
C) H_0: P = 0.5; H_1: P<0.5
D) H_0: P > 0.5; H_1: P≤0.5
2. Select the most appropriate test result of the hypothesis
test of question 1
A) Reject the null hypothesis at the 1% level.
B) Reject the null hypothesis at the 5% level
C) Reject the null hypothesis at the 10% level
D) Failed to reject the null hypothesis at the 10% level.
3. Test against a two-sided alternative, the null
hypothesis that the population proportions of accounting and
finance majors who rate a sense of humor as very important are the
same
A) Reject H_0 at the 1% level.
B) Reject H_0 at the 5% level
C) Reject H_0 at the 10% level
D) Failed to reject H_0 at the 10% level.
4. Select the most appropriate test result of the
hypothesis test of Question 3
A) Reject the null hypothesis at the 1% level.
B) Reject the null hypothesis at the 5% level
C) Reject the null hypothesis at the 10% level
D) Failed to reject the null hypothesis at the 10% level.
