HYPOTHESIS TESTING ON A SINGLE POPULATION
PROPORTION
Answer the following problems below following the
steps in hypothesis testing. Use a 1 whole sheet of
paper.
1. A concerned citizen group claims that 45% of the
people in city A support making beers illegal. You
decide to test this claim and ask a random sample of
200 people in the concerned city whether or not they
support making beers illegal. Of the 200 people, 49%
support this bill. At 0.05 level of significance, is there
enough evidence to support this claim?
2. A business aspirant wanted to put up his coffee
shop. Before putting up his business, he did a study
that answers the question: Is the percentage of
coffee lovers who prefer Benguet coffee over
Batangas coffee less than 80%? In a sample of 50
customers, 60% preferred Benguet coffee over
Batangas coffee.
3. A random sample of 1,600 coconut trees were
tested for traces of the cocokulisap infestation. It
was found out that 153 of the trees showed such
traces. Test the hypothesis that less than 10% of the
coconut trees have been infested. (use 5% level of
significance.)
4. In a group of 420 students of Mataas na Paaralang
Stat, 48 were left-handed. Is this significantly lower
than the proportion of all Filipinos who are left-
handed which is 0.13. Use 0.05 level of significance.
