Find the appropriate P-value and test that the claim that proportions are not equal using a significance level of 0.05.
n1=200 n2=100
x1 = 11 x2 = 8
Hypothesis is,
H0: Proportions for both population are equal
Vs
H1: Proportions for both population are not equal
Proportions are,
p1=x1/n1=11/200=0.055
p2=x2/n2=8/100=0.08
Test statistic is,
Our claim is proportions are not equal. Hence test is two tailed.
P value=2*P(Z<test statistic) =2*P(Z<-0.8383) =0.4019
Given level of significance is 0.05
P value is greater than level of significance. Hence we accept null hypothesis. Hence our claim is not true.
