Answer:
Since the p-value > [tex]\alpha[/tex], do not reject the null hypothesis.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that according to the Pew Research Center, the proportion of the American population who use only a cellular telephone (no landline) is 37%.
Jason claims that the proportion of young American adults who do not have a landline is greater than 37%. He conducts a survey with a sample of randomly selected young American adults and finds that 38% do not have landlines.
Null Hypothesis, [tex]H_0[/tex] : p = 0.37
Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_a[/tex] : p > 0.37
We are also provided with significance level, [tex]\alpha[/tex] = 0.05 and p-value = 0.418
Now, the decision rule based on p-value ifs given by;
So, here P-value = 0.418
[tex]\alpha[/tex] = 0.05
Clearly, p-value is more than the level of significance ([tex]\alpha[/tex]), so we will not reject our null hypothesis.
Also, it will be concluded that the Jason claims of the proportion of young American adults who do not have a landline is greater than 37% is not correct.
