A study was conducted to determine the proportion of people who dream in black and white instead of color. Among 286 people over the age of55, 65 dream in black andwhite, and among 294 people under the age of25, 12 dream in black and white. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the proportion of people over 55 who dream in black and white is greater than the proportion for those under 25.

Test the claim using a hypothesis test.

Consider the first sample to be the sample of people over the age of 55 and the second sample to be the sample of people under the age of 25. What are the null and alternative hypotheses for the hypothesistest?

A.

H0: p1=p2

H1: p1p2

B.

H0: p1p2

H1: p1=p2

C.

H0: p1p2

H1: p1p2

D.

H0: p1p2

H1: p1p2

E.

H0: p1=p2

H1: p1

F.

H0: p1=p2

H1: p1>p2

Identify the P Value

What is the conclusion based on the hypothesistest?

The P- Value is, less then or greater then, the significance level of a=0.05, so fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.

There is, sufficient, or insufficient, evidence to support the claim that the proportion of people over 55 who dream in black and white is greater than the proportion for those under 25.

Test the claim by constructing an appropriate confidence interval.

The 90% confidence interval is what

Because the confidence interval limits include or do not include 0, it appears that the two proportions are equal or not equal, Because the confidence interval limits include only positive, only negative, or positive and negative values, it appears that the proportion of people over 55 who dream in black and white is greater then, less than, or not significantly different from the proportion for those under 25.

An explanation for the results is that those over the age of 55 grew up exposed to media that was displayed in black and white. Can these results be used to verify thatexplanation?

A.

Yes. The results can be used to verify the given explanation because the difference in proportions is practically significant.

B.

No. The results speak to a possible difference between the proportions of people over 55 and under 25 who dream in black andwhite, but the results are not statistically significant enough to verify the cause of such a difference.

C.

No. The results speak to a possible difference between the proportions of people over 55 and under 25 who dream in black andwhite, but the results cannot be used to verify the cause of such a difference.

D.

Yes. The results can be used to verify the given explanation because the difference in proportions is statistically significant.
