Explanation / Answer

17) Option-B

18) Option-C

19) Option-D

20) z0.035 = 1.81

option-E is the correct answer.

21) The test statistic Z = (p - P)/sqrt (P * (1 - P)/n)

= (0.52 - 0.46)/sqrt (0.46 * 0.54/231)

= 1.83

option-E is the correct answer.

22) As the test statistic value is greater than the critical value (1.83 > 1.81), so the null hypothesis is rejected.

Option-A is the correct answer.

23) Option-D

24) At 97% confidence interval the critical value is z0.015 = 2.17

The upper boundary is

p + z0.015 * sqrt(P * (1 - P)/n )

= 0.52 + 2.17 * sqrt(0.46 * 0.54 /231)

= 0.52 + 0.071

= 0.591

Option-B is the correct answer.
