In a certain large state university, older students get to choose their classes before younger students; that often means that freshmen don't get to take the classes they want. Jacob wants to take a really popular course in Russian literature, but his adviser says there's only a 32% chance that it will be available when he gets to choose his classes. Jacob wonders if his chances are actually better than 32% since, in the past few years, 73 of 200 freshmen who requested the course were able to get in. Do these data provide good evidence that freshmen have a better than 32% chance of getting the course if they ask for it? what are the null & alternative hypotheses? Thanks

Respuesta :

There is a good evidence that freshmen have a better than 32% chance of getting the course if they ask for it.

The null hypothesis is that  freshmen do not have a better than 32% chance of getting the course if they ask for it.

The alternative hypothesis is freshmen have a better than 32% chance of getting the course if they ask for it.

What are the chance that a freshman would get the course?

The chance of getting the course = number of freshmen who got the course / total number of freshmen

73 / 200 = 36.50%

What are the null and alternative hypothesis?

The null hypothesis states that there is no relationship between the population parameters. It is known as the true hypothesis. In the question, the population parameters are freshmen and getting the course

The alternative hypothesis states that there is a relationship between the population parameters.
