Technological changes in golf clubs have affected the way golfers of all abilities are able to play
Question:
Technological changes in golf clubs have affected the way golfers of all abilities are able to play the game. The impact seems to be especially great for professionals.
Suppose there is a controversy over whether professional and amateur players should have different rules for what constitutes legal golf clubs and equipment in general.
One golf organization has indicated that more than 50%
of all golfers believe the rules should be different for professionals and amateurs. To test this, a survey of 300 randomly selected golfers found that 200 said there should be different equipment rules.
a. To test the organization’s “more than 50%” claim, what should the null and alternative hypotheses be?
b. Based on the sample data and alpha = 0.05, use the p-value approach to test whether the null hypothesis should be rejected.
