Assume that
31.4%
of people have sleepwalked. Assume that in a random sample of
1491
adults,
477
have sleepwalked.a. Assuming that the rate of
31.4%
is correct, find the probability that
477
or more of the
1491
adults have sleepwalked.b. Is that result of
477
or more significantly high?c. What does the result suggest about the rate of
31.4%?
a. Assuming that the rate of
31.4%
is correct, the probability that
477
or more of the
1491
adults have sleepwalked is
nothing.
(Round to four decimal places as needed.)
b. Is that result of
477
or more significantly high?
▼
Yes,
No,
because the probability of this event is
▼
greater
less
than the probability cutoff that corresponds to a significant event, which is
▼
0.5.
0.05.
0.95.
c. What does the result suggest about the rate of
31.4%?
A.Since the result of
477
adults that have sleepwalked
is not
significantly high, it
is not
strong evidence against the assumed rate of
31.4%.
B.Since the result of
477
adults that have sleepwalked
is
significantly high, it
is not
strong evidence against the assumed rate of
31.4%.
C.Since the result of
477
adults that have sleepwalked
is not
significantly high, it
is
strong evidence against the assumed rate of
31.4%.
D.
The results do not indicate anything about the scientist's assumption.
E.Since the result of
477
adults that have sleepwalked
is
significantly high, it
is
strong evidence against the assumed rate of
31.4%.
F.Since the result of
477
adults that have sleepwalked
is not
significantly high, it
is not
strong evidence supporting the assumed rate of
31.4%.
