Below are the null and alternative Hypothesis,
Null Hypothesis: p = 0.25
Alternative Hypothesis: p < 0.25
Test statistic,
z = (pcap - p)/sqrt(p*(1-p)/n)
z = (0.205 - 0.25)/sqrt(0.25*(1-0.25)/200)
z = -1.4697
P-value Approach
P-value = 0.0708

(1 point) Taste Test. Some people claim that they can tell the difference between a diet soda and a regular soda in the first sip. A researcher wanting to test this claim randomly sampled 124 such people. He then filled 124 plain white cups with soda, half diet and half regular through random assignment, and asked each person to take one sip from their cup and identify the soda as diet or regular. 83 participants correctly identified the soda. Round...
