Answer:
a) The null hypothesis is [tex]H_0: p \leq \frac{2}{3}[/tex] and the alternate hypothesis is [tex]H_1: p > \frac{2}{3}[/tex].
b) The sample proportion is 0.6710.
Step-by-step explanation:
Question a:
An airline promotion to business travelers is based on the assumption that no more than two-thirds of business travelers use a laptop computer on overnight business trips.
At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is two-thirds or less, that is:
[tex]H_0: p \leq \frac{2}{3}[/tex]
At the alternate hypothesis, we test if the proportion is of more than two-thirds, that is:
[tex]H_1: p > \frac{2}{3}[/tex]
b. What is the sample proportion from an American Express-sponsored survey that found 359 of 535 business travelers use a laptop computer on overnight business trips (to 4 decimals)?
359 out of 535 is 359/535 = 0.6710.
The sample proportion is 0.6710.
