An agency reports that 11.3% of workers in a particular country belonged to unions. Suppose a sample of 300 workers is collected to determine whether union efforts to organize have increased union membership.
(a)
Formulate the hypotheses that can be used to determine whether union membership has increased.
H0: p ≤ 0.113
Ha: p > 0.113
H0: p < 0.113
Ha: p ≥ 0.113
H0: p = 0.113
Ha: p ≠ 0.113
H0: p ≥ 0.113
Ha: p < 0.113
H0: p > 0.113
Ha: p ≤ 0.113
(b)
If the sample results show that 42 of the workers belonged to unions, what is the p-value for your hypothesis test?
Find the value of the test statistic. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
Find the p-value. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
p-value =
(c)
At
α = 0.05,
what is your conclusion?
Reject H0. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that there has been an increase in union membership.
Reject H0. There is insufficient evidence to conclude that there has been an increase in union membership.
Do not reject H0. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that there has been an increase in union membership.
Do not reject H0. There is insufficient evidence to conclude that there has been an increase in union membership.

The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that 11.3% of U.S. workers belonged to labor unions in 2013. Suppose a sample of 400 U.S. workers is collected in 2018 to determine whether union efforts to organize have increased union membership. a. Formulate the hypotheses that can be used to determine whether union membership increased in 2018 from 2013. b. If the sample results who that 52 of the workers belonged to unions, what is p ̅ ? c.

A study found that, in 2005, 12.5% of U.S. workers belonged to unions (The Wall Street Journal, January 21, 2006). Suppose a sample of 400 U.S. workers is collected in 2006 to determine whether union efforts to organize have increased union membership. Formulate the hypotheses that can be used to determine whether union membership increased in 2006. If the sample results show that 52 of the workers belonged to unions, what is the sample proportion of workers belonging to unions...
