Question:

For each of the following, assume that a two-tailed test using the normal approximation to the binomial distribution with α = .05 is being used to evaluate the significance of the result.

a. For a true-false test with 25 questions, how many would you have to get right to do significantly better than chance? That is, what X value is needed to produce a z-score greater than 1.96?

b. How many would you need to get right on a 50-question true-false test?

c. How many would you need to get right on a 75-question true-false test?
Remember that each X value corresponds to an interval. Be sure that the entire interval is in the critical region.
