Hypothesis
Tests
We
test
whether
the
sample
stat
supports
or
proves
the
claim
wrong
about
the
parameter.
Test
the
claim
that
20%
of
all
skittles
are
red.

The
p
value
=

We
will
fail
to
reject
the
claim
because
.1262<.05.

There
is
insufficient
evidence
to
reject
the
claim
that
20%
of
all
the
skittles
are
red.
Test
the
claim
that
the
mean
number
of
candies
in
the
bag
of
skittles
is
more
than
55.

There
is
sufficient
evidence
to
support
the
claim
that
the
mean
number
of
candies
in
the
bag
of
skittles
is
more
than
55.
The
requirements
for
testing
a
claim
about
P
is
that
it
must
be
a
simple
random
sample,
the
conditions
for
binomial
distribution
are
satisfied
which
means
there
are
a
fixed
number
of
trials,
2
outcomes,
independent,
and
the
probability
of
success
stays
the
same
in
all
trials.
The
conditions
np
>
and
nq
>
5
are
both
satisfied.
1670(.20)=334>5,
1670(.80)=1336>5
Our
sample
didnt
mean
the
requirements
because
it
was
not
simple
random
sample.
The
condition
for
np>5
and
nq>5
and
the
binomial
distribution
was
satisfied.
The
requirements
for
testing
a
claim
for
the
mean
is
that
it
must
be
simple
random
sample,
and
either
or
both
of
these
conditions
are
satisfied.
The
population
is
normally
distributed
or
n>30.
Our
samples
did
not
meet
these
requirements
because
we
did
not
have
a
simple
random
sample
and
the
population
is
not
normally
distributed
because
we
had
less
than
30
samples
and
the
graph
does
not
look
normally
distributed.
