The current advertising campaign for a major soft drink brand would be changed if less than 30 percent of the consumers like it. A random sample of 300 consumers was surveyed, and 84 respondents indicated that they liked the campaign, equivalent to 28%. What are the null and alternative hypothesis? If the test-statistic is calculated to be -0.7407, at significance level of 5% with critical value of 1.64, can we reject the null and say we should the campaign be changed?

The null and alternative hypotheses are;

Null hypothesis; H0: p ≥ 0.3

Alternative hypothesis; Ha: p < 0.3

The conclusion of the hypotheses is that; We reject the null hypothesis and conclude that;

The current advertising campaign for the major soft drink brand should be changed.

We are given;

Population proportion; p' = 30% = 0.3

Sample proportion; p = 28% = 0.28

Sample size; n = 300

Thus;

Null hypothesis; H0: p ≥ 0.3

Alternative hypothesis; Ha: p < 0.3

z = (p' - p)/(√(p(1 - p)/n)

This means that our calculated z-score falls to the left of the rejection region and as such we will reject the null hypothesis and conclude that;

The current advertising campaign for the major soft drink brand should be changed.

|Z| = | -0.747 | = 0.747 < 1.64 at 5% level of significance

Null Hypothesis is accepted at 5% level of significance

The current advertising campaign for a major soft drink brand would be changed if less than 30 percent of the consumers like it and not be changed

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given Population proportion P = 30 percentage

                                             P = 0.30

sample proportion

Null Hypothesis :-

P = 0.30

Alternative Hypothesis:-

P ≠ 0.30

Step(ii):-

Test statistic

                 Z = -0.747

|Z| = | -0.747 | = 0.747

tabulated value   Z =  1.64 at 5% level of significance

|Z| = | -0.747 | = 0.747 < 1.64 at 5% level of significance

Null Hypothesis is accepted at 5% level of significance

The current advertising campaign for a major soft drink brand would be changed if less than 30 percent of the consumers like it.

b. 54

Step-by-step explanation:

45 is original perimeter for ABC. You subtract 16 and 9 from 45 to get the missing side B which is 20. To answer the the perimeter for triangle CRB you add 20 to the other sides which is 15 and 19. The total is 54.
