Question:

Reconsider the previous exercise.
a. If the observed proportion of successes turns out to be the same for both groups, would you expect the p-value to be very small, somewhat small, or not small at all? Explain.
b. If Group A results in only successes and Group B results in only failures, would you expect the p-value to be very small, somewhat small, or not small at all? Explain.
