Test the claim that the proportion of men who own cats is significantly different than 70% at the 0.01 significance level.

The null and alternative hypothesis would be:

H0:p=0.7H0:p=0.7
H1:p≠0.7H1:p≠0.7

H0:μ=0.7H0:μ=0.7
H1:μ>0.7H1:μ>0.7

H0:μ=0.7H0:μ=0.7
H1:μ<0.7H1:μ<0.7

H0:μ=0.7H0:μ=0.7
H1:μ≠0.7H1:μ≠0.7

H0:p=0.7H0:p=0.7
H1:p>0.7H1:p>0.7

H0:p=0.7H0:p=0.7
H1:p<0.7H1:p<0.7



The test is:

left-tailed

two-tailed

right-tailed



Based on a sample of 25 people, 64% owned cats

The test statistic is: (to 2 decimals)

The positive critical value is: (to 2 decimals)

Based on this we:

Reject the null hypothesis
Fail to reject the null hypothesis
