Tim claims that a coin is coming up tails less than half of the time. in 110 tosses, the coin comes up tails 47 times. using p-value, test tim's claim. use a 0.10 significance level and determine conclusion.

If we compare the p value obtained and using the significance level given we have that so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 10% of significance the proportion of tails is significantly less than 0.5.  

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

n=110 represent the random sample taken

X=47 represent the number of tails obtained

estimated proportion of tails

is the value that we want to test

represent the significance level

Confidence=90% or 0.90

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

represent the p value (variable of interest)  

2) Concepts and formulas to use  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the proportion of tails is lower than 0.5:  

Null hypothesis:  

Alternative hypothesis:  

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statistic, and the is given by:  

(1)  

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion is significantly different from a hypothesized value .

3) Calculate the statistic  

Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:  

4) Statistical decision  

It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.  

The significance level provided . The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.  

Since is a left tailed test the p value would be:  

If we compare the p value obtained and using the significance level given we have that so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 10% of significance the proportion of tails is significantly less than 0.5.  

option a.

step-by-step explanation:

if you look closely at the graph, we can notice that the function is not defined at two different points.

if you look at functions b and c, you will notice that both functions are not defined at just one point. the function b is not defined at x= -5/2 and function c is not defined at x=-5. both options are discarded, given that our function should not be defined at two fiferent points.

now, if you look closely at the graph you will notice that the function sketched is not defined at x=5 and x=-2.
