Question 3

Multiple Choice

Express the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis in symbolic form. Use the correct symbol (μ,p,σ) ( \mu , p , \sigma ) for the indicated parameter. An entomologist writes an article in a scientific journal which claims that fewer than 16 in ten thousand male fireflies are unable to produce light due to a genetic mutation. Use the parameter p , the true proportion of fireflies unable to produce light.


A) H0:p=0.0016H1:p<0.0016\begin{array} { l } H _ { 0 } : p = 0.0016 \\H _ { 1 } : p < 0.0016\end{array}
B) H0:p=0.0016H1:p>0.0016\begin{array} { l } H _ { 0 } : p = 0.0016 \\H _ { 1 } : p > 0.0016\end{array}
C) H0:p>0.0016H1:p0.0016\begin{array} { l } H _ { 0 } : p > 0.0016 \\H _ { 1 } : p \leq 0.0016\end{array}
D) H0:p<0.0016H1:p0.0016\begin{array} { l } H _ { 0 } : p < 0.0016 \\H _ { 1 } : p \geq 0.0016\end{array}
