Suppose a consumer group suspects that the proportion of households that have three cell phones NOT known to be 30%. A cell phone company has reason to believe that the proportion is 30%. Before they start a big advertising campaign, they conduct a 99% CL hypothesis test. Their marketing people survey 150 households with the result that 43 of the households have three cell phones. Required:
a. Is the actual percentage of households different from 30%?
b. Set up the hypothesis test.
c. What is the success for this problem?
d. Calculate the p-value.
e. Draw conclusion.

We conclude that the actual percentage of households is equal to 30%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a consumer group suspects that the proportion of households that have three cell phones NOT known to be 30%.

Their marketing people survey 150 households with the result that 43 of the households have three cell phones.

Let p = proportion of households that have three cell phones NOT known.

So, Null Hypothesis, : p = 30%      {means that the actual percentage of households is equal to 30%}

Alternate Hypothesis, : p 30%     {means that the actual percentage of households different from 30%}

The test statistics that would be used here One-sample z-test for proportions;

                                T.S. =    ~ N(0,1)

where, = sample proportion of households having three cell phones = = 0.29

           n = sample of households = 150

So, the test statistics  =    

                                     =  -0.27

The value of z test statistic is -0.27.

Also, P-value of the test statistics is given by;

              P-value = P(Z < -0.27) = 1 - P(Z 0.27)

                            = 1 - 0.6064 = 0.3936

Now, at 1% significance level the z table gives critical value of -2.58 and 2.58 for two-tailed test.

Since our test statistic lies within the range of critical values of z, so we have insufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will not fall in the rejection region due to which we fail to reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that the actual percentage of households is equal to 30%.

i think it would be 43 movies that would have to be watched.

step-by-step explanation:

think about it. for the second plan, every month is 8 dollars. 8 x 12= 96. so thats the number for the second plan. now for the first plan, its annual meaning you have to pay 10 dollars every year. so now you have to get an equivalent amount of 86 since 96-10=86. 86 divided by 2 since every movie costs 2$ then you would have to watch 43 movies a year to get the same as the second plan. i really hoped this . have a wonderful day as well!
