About 10% of the human population is left-handed. Suppose a researcher speculates that artists are more likely to be left-handed than other people in the general population. The researcher surveys 200 artists and finds that 26 of them are left-handed.Required:a. Define the parameter of interest and give the null value.b. State the researcher's null and alternative hypotheses.c. What proportion of the sample of artists is left-handed?d. To calculate a p-value for the hypothesis test, what probability should the researcher calculate? Make your answer specific to this situation.

Answer:

Given the information in the question;

a) The parameter of interest is the population of artists who are left-handed and its is 10% = (10/1000 = 0.10

b) The Null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis are;

H₀ : p = 0.10

H₁ : p > 0.10

c) The sample proportion is calculated as:

p = number of left handed artist / sample size

p = 26 / 200

p = 0.13

d) To find the p-value, The researcher should calculate the probability that the sample proportion would be 0.13 or larger for a sample of size 200 if the population proportion is actually 0.10.
