## Q ) Write the null and alternative hypotheses. Identify which is the claim. The results of a recent study examining the proportion of clinically misdiagnosed cancer cases indicate that 44% of all cancer cases are misdiagnosed.
Answer :
it is one sample z test :
population proportion is = p = 44 % = 0.44
claim : Study examining the proportion of clinically misdiagnosed cancer cases indicate that 44% of all cancer cases are misdiagnosed.
Null and Alternative Hypothesis is :
Ho : p = 0.44 vs H1 : p ≠ 0.44
( we know that null hypothesis is always equal that is no difference ,
our claim is non directional that is not specify lower than or upper than so by default we take non directional that is two tailed . that's why here alternative hypothesis is ≠ 0.44 )
