Question: We are interested in testing if this sample provides evidence that the proportion of Americans who are dissatisfied with education in kindergarten through grade 12

We are interested in testing if this sample provides evidence that the proportion of Americans who are dissatisfied with education in kindergarten through grade 12 differs significantly from 0.5. The sample proportion of Americans who are dissatisfied with education in kindergarten through grade 12 is 0.493 with a random sample of size = 1000.

  1. State your hypotheses and define your parameter.
  2. Assume the sample size is large enough to use the standard normal distribution and standard error from a randomization distribution is 0.016, compute the standardized .
  3. Using = 0.01,give a formal generic conclusion of the hypothesis test and conclude in context of the question. (Take p-value =0.058)

d. What error could you have made?Hint: Type I error or Type II error (1.5pts)
