1.) A recent sample of 1250 teenagers found that 83% hope to be married within the next 10 years. Does this evidence show that the percentage of proportion of teenagers who hope to be married is significantly less than 85%? Test using alpha=0.05. Shade the curve using the critical value. Also, graph the test statistic on the curve.
a. Claim:
b. Null Hypothesis
c. Alternative Hypothesis:
d. Test to be used?
e. Test statistic:
f. What is the p-value?
g. What is the critical value?
h. What is the conclusion? (reject or fail to reject null hypothesis)
i. Based on the results, can we conclude that the percentage of teens who want to be married is less than 85%? Give summary.
