Consider the Gender Choice example in which the sample size is n = 100 and the sample
Question:
Consider the Gender Choice example in which the sample size is n = 100 and the sample proportion is p̂ = 0.64. Using techniques that we will discuss later in this chapter, it is possible to calculate the probability of randomly choosing such a sample proportion (or a more extreme proportion with p̂ > 0.64) under the assumption that the null hypothesis (p = 0.50) is true; the result is that the probability is 0.0026. (The result is 0.0033 if technology is used to obtain very accurate results.) Based on this result, should you reject or not reject the null hypothesis?
