Question:
Let k denote the number of successes observed in a sequence of n independent Bernoulli trials, where p = P(success).
(a) Show that the critical region of the likelihood ratio test of H0: p = 1/2 versus H1: p ≠ 1/2 can be written in the form k・ ln(k) + (n − k) ・ ln(n − k) ≥ λ∗∗
(b) Use the symmetry of the graph of f(k) = k ・ ln(k) + (n − k)・ ln(n − k) to show that the critical region can be written in the formwhere c is a constant determined by α.
