The mayor of a town has proposed a plan for the annexation of a new community. A political study took a sample of 10001000 voters in the town and found that 29)% of the residents favored annexation. Using the data, a political strategist wants to test the claim that the percentage of residents who favor annexation is more than 26&%. Determine the P-value of the test statistic. Round your answer to four decimal places.

We accept H₀

p-value = 0,1618

Step-by-step explanation:

We are going to solve a one tail proportion-test ( right tail)

We assume Normal distribution

Sample population 1000

Political strategist to test  wants to test:

Null hypothesis                             H₀           p = p₀       or   p = 26 %

Alternate hypothesis                    Hₐ           p > p₀        or  p > 26%

We assume CI  90 % then

α = 10 %     α = 0,1    and  z score for α = 0,1  is critical value

z = 2,32          ( note  2,32 is z score for α = 0,1017 "good approximation")

To compute z(s)

z(s)  =  ( p -p₀ ) / √ p₀q₀/n

z(s)  =  ( 0,29 - 0,26 ) /√ 0,26*0,74/1000

z(s)  = 0,03 / 0,014

z(s) = 2,14

We compare z(s) and z(c)

z(s) < z(c)

2,14 < 2,32

z(s) is in the acceptance region we accept H₀

The p-value for z(s) is from z-table

p-value = 0,1618
