Question
In 2006, 75.9% of college students responding to a national survey said they used the Internet frequently for research or homework. Administrators at OSU think their current students use the Internet more frequently that those students in 2006.
Suppose we are interested in answering the question, “Is the proportion of students at OSU who said they use the Internet frequently for research or homework larger than the national value of 75.9%?”
What are the null and alternative hypotheses (H0 and Ha) for this problem?
A. H0: p = 0.759 and Ha: p < 0.759Explanation / Answer
The null hypothesis is that of equality. thus, the answer for null hypothesis is p = 0.759
arger than the national value of 75.9% will be the alternative hypothesis.
thus answer is B. H0: p = 0.759 and Ha: p > 0.759
