Test the claim that the proportion of men who own cats issignificantly different than the proportion of women who own catsat the 0.2 significance level.1. The null and alternative hypotheses would be:
a) H0:pM=pFH0:pM=pFH1:pM<pFH1:pM<pF
b) H0:μM=μFH0:μM=μFH1:μM<μFH1:μM<μF
c) H0:pM=pFH0:pM=pFH1:pM≠pFH1:pM≠pF
d) H0:μM=μFH0:μM=μFH1:μM>μFH1:μM>μF
e) H0:pM=pFH0:pM=pFH1:pM>pFH1:pM>pF
f) H0:μM=μFH0:μM=μFH1:μM≠μFH1:μM≠μF
2. The test is:
a) left-tailed
b) two-tailed
c) right-tailed
Based on a sample of 40 men, 25% owned catsBased on a sample of 40 women, 50% owned cats3. The test statistic is: (to 2 decimals)4. The p-value is: (to 2 decimals)
5. Based on this we:
a) Reject the null hypothesis
b) Fail to reject the null hypothesis
