Problem

The test statistic of $z=2.29$ is obtained when testing the claim that $p \neq 0.387$.
a. Identify the hypothesis test as being two-tailed, left-tailed, or right-tailed.
b. Find the P-value.
c. Using a significance level of $\alpha=0.10$, should we reject $\mathrm{H}_{0}$ or should we fail to reject $\mathrm{H}_{0}$ ?

a. This is a test.
b. $P$-value $=$ (Round to three decimal places as needed.)
c. Choose the correct conclusion below.
A. Reject $\mathrm{H}_{0}$. There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that $p \neq 0.387$.
B. Fail to reject $\mathrm{H}_{0}$. There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that $p \neq 0.387$.
C. Reject $\mathrm{H}_{0}$. There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that $p \neq 0.387$.
D. Fail to reject $\mathrm{H}_{0}$. There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that $p \neq 0.387$.

Answer

Final Answer: The hypothesis test is \(\boxed{\text{two-tailed}}\).

Steps

Step 1 :The first question is asking to identify the type of hypothesis test. Since the claim is that \(p \neq 0.387\), this is a two-tailed test because we are testing for a difference from the hypothesized value in either direction.

Step 2 :Final Answer: The hypothesis test is \(\boxed{\text{two-tailed}}\).
