A 2012 survey of 2,254 American adults indicates that 17% of cell phone owners do their browsing on their phone rather than a computer or other device. (a) According to an online article, a report from a mobile research company indicates that 38 percent of Chinese mobile web users only access the internet through their cell phones. Conduct a hypothesis test to determine if these data provide strong evidence that the proportion of Americans who only use their cell phones to access the internet is different than the Chinese proportion of 38%. The hypotheses for this test are:

Respuesta :

The hypothesis which can be used to show whether data provide strong evidence or not are: [tex]H_{0}:p_{1}[/tex]≠[tex]p_{2}[/tex] and [tex]H_{1}:p_{1}=p_{2}[/tex] where [tex]p_{1} and p_{2}[/tex] are the proportions of Americans and chinese  people who use mobile phones to access internet.

Given proportion of Americans uses mobile phones is 17%. Proportion of chinese uses mobile phones is 38%.

Hypothesis are the statements which can be tested through its validity.  There can be  null hypothesis and alternate hypothesis.

The hypothesis which can be used are as under:

[tex]H_{0} :[/tex][tex]p_{1}[/tex]≠[tex]p_{2}[/tex]

[tex]H_{1}:p_{1} =p_{2}[/tex]

We have used equal to signs because we have to check whether they are different or not.

We cannot check hypothesis as we don't have standard deviation.

Hence the hypothesis for this test are: [tex]H_{0} :p_{1}[/tex]≠[tex]p_{2}[/tex] and [tex]H_{1} :p_{1} =p_{2}[/tex].
