d. Find the value of b for the alternative Ha: p = .71.

ANSWER:

Solution:

Step 1 of 4:

A random sample of size 100 will be drawn from the population.

We have to conduct the two-tailed test of :p=0.7 against : p0.7 using .

Here we have to,

  1.  Describe the sampling distribution of under the assumption that is true,

  1. Describe the sampling distribution of under the assumption that p= 0.65,

  1. Find the value of associated with the test, if p were really equal to 0.65,

  1. Find the value of for the alternative :p=0.71.
