When 3010 adults were surveyed in a​ poll, 27​% said that they use the Internet. Is it okay for a newspaper reporter to write that ​"1 divided by 4 of all adults use the​ Internet"? Why or why​ not? Identify the null​ hypothesis, alternative​ hypothesis, test​ statistic, P-value, conclusion about the null​ hypothesis, and final conclusion that addresses the original claim. Use the​ P-value method. Use the normal distribution as an approximation of the binomial distribution.The test statistic is z = ?. (Round to two decimal places as needed.)The P-value is ?. (Round to four decimal places as needed.)Identify the conclusion about the null hypothesis and the final conclusion that addresses the original claim. (Assume a 0.05 significance level.)

Question
Answer:
Answer:Null hypothesis:[tex]p=0.25[/tex]  Alternative hypothesis:[tex]p \neq 0.25[/tex] z=2.53pv=0.0114So based on the p value obtained and using the significance given [tex]\alpha=0.05[/tex] we have [tex]p_v<\alpha[/tex] so we can conclude that we reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of people who says that they use the Internet differs from 0.25 or 25% .  Step-by-step explanation:1) Data given and notation n=3010 represent the random sample takenX represent the people who says that said that they use the Internet.[tex]\hat p=\frac{X}{106}=0.27[/tex] estimated proportion of people who says that said that they use the Internet.[tex]p_o=0.25[/tex] is the value that we want to test[tex]\alpha[/tex] represent the significance level  z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)[tex]p_v[/tex] represent the p value (variable of interest)  2) Concepts and formulas to use  We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that 50% of people who says that  they would watch one of the television shows.:  Null hypothesis:[tex]p=0.25[/tex]  Alternative hypothesis:[tex]p \neq 0.25[/tex]  When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statisitc, and the is given by:  [tex]z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}}[/tex] (1)  The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion [tex]\hat p[/tex] is significantly different from a hypothesized value [tex]p_o[/tex].3) Calculate the statistic  Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:  [tex]z=\frac{0.27 -0.25}{\sqrt{\frac{0.25(1-0.25)}{3010}}}=2.53[/tex] 4) Statistical decision  P value method or p value approach . "This method consists on determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.  We have the significance level provided [tex]\alpha=0.05[/tex]. The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.  Since is a bilateral test the p value would be:  [tex]p_v =2*P(z>2.53)=2*(0.0057)=0.0114[/tex]  So based on the p value obtained and using the significance given [tex]\alpha=0.05[/tex] we have [tex]p_v<\alpha[/tex] so we can conclude that we reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of people who says that they use the Internet differs from 0.25 or 25% .
