The test statistic of z=2.48 is obtained when testing the claim that p > 0.7.

(a) Identify the hypothesis test as being​ two-tailed, left-tailed, or​ right-tailed.
(b) Find the​ P-value.
(c) Using a significance level of alpha=.05​, should we reject H0 or should we fail to reject H0​?

Answer:

a)  Right-tailed test

b) 0.006569

c) We reject [tex]H_0[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

[tex]z_{\text{statistic}} = 2.48[/tex]

We are testing the claim  that p > 0.7

Alpha, α = 0.05

a) We have to identify type of test.

Since we test for claim p > 0.7, it is a one-tailed(right) test.

b) The p-value can be calculated with the help of standard normal table.

[tex]P(z>2.48) = 1 - P(z<2.48) = 0.006569[/tex]

C) Since the p-value is less than the significance level, we fail to accept the null hypothesis and reject the null hypothesis.

Thus, we reject [tex]H_0[/tex].
