LESSON 1
Some Key Concepts of Tests of Hypothesis
This part of the module discusses about some key concepts of tests of
hypothesis. It includes the null and alternative hypotheses, level of significance,
rejection region, and the types of errors in hypothesis testing. There are activities
following every discussion which were designed to test your understanding about the
discussion.
Hypothesis testing is a decision-making process of evaluating claims about a
population based on the characteristic of a sample from that population. It decides
whether to reject or accept the null hypothesis. Some use the following decisions: the
null hypothesis is rejected or failed to reject the null hypothesis. Acceptance implies
that the null hypothesis is true. Failure to reject implies that the data are not sufficient
enough to reject the null hypothesis. In this module, your decision during hypothesis
testing is either reject the null hypothesis or the data are not sufficient enough to reject
the null hypothesis. Testing hypothesis follows the following steps below.
1. Formulate the null and alternative hypotheses

2. Select the level of significance and the test type
3. Determine test statistic to be used
4. Compute the test statistic and critical values
5. Construct acceptance/rejection regions
6. Make a decision/draw a conclusion based on steps 4 and 5
7. Interpret

LESSON 1.1
NULL HYPOTHESIS
➢ Null is defined as having no value or amounting to nothing

➢ In statistics, a hypothesis is an assumption or conjecture about a population
parameter which may or may not be true.
➢ In the scientific method, the hypothesis is constructed before any applicable
research has been done.
➢ Null hypothesis is a statement denoted by 𝑯𝟎 , that states that there is no
difference, no changes, nothing happened, no relationship between a parameter
and a specific value, or the independent variable has no effect on the dependent
variable.
➢ It makes a statement about the population not the sample. The true value of
the population parameter is specified in writing the null hypothesis.
In symbol, it is written using the format below

𝐻0 : 𝜇 = 100.
Null hypothesis Value of the population
Population Parameter Equality Symbol parameter

WHAT’S NEW
LESSON 1.2
ALTERNATIVE HYPOTHESIS
➢ Alternative hypothesis, a statement denoted by 𝑯𝟏 , is a statement that states

that there is a difference, an effect, change, or a relationship between a parameter
and a specific value; the independent variable has an effect on the dependent
variable, or something happened.
➢ An alternative hypothesis is a statement that directly contradicts a null

hypothesis by stating that that the actual value of a population parameter is less
than, greater than, or not equal to the value stated in the null hypothesis.
In symbol, it is written as:

𝐻1 : 𝜇 ≠ 100
𝐻1 : 𝜇 < 100 or
𝐻1 : 𝜇 > 100
The alternative hypothesis will also determine the type of hypothesis test that will be
conducted.
One-tailed test will be used when using > or <.

Two-tailed test will be used when ≠is used.

LESSON 1.3
LEVEL OF SIGNIFICANCE
➢ Significance is defined as the quality of being statistically significant
➢ Level of significance, or significance level, refers to a criterion of judgment

upon which a decision is made regarding the value stated in a null hypothesis.
Its value is between 0 to 1 or between 0% to 100%.
➢ The level of significance, denoted by the Greek letter alpha 𝜶, is a probability

of rejecting a true null hypothesis. In public health research, alpha is usually 0.01
or 1%. In social science, alpha 𝜶 is usually 0.05 or 5% and 0.10 or 10% in other
studies. This implies that there is a 1%, 5%, or 10% probability of rejecting a true
null hypothesis. Further, it implies that the result has 99%, 95%, or 90% chance
of being true, respectively.
In symbol, it is written as:

𝜶 = 𝟎. 𝟎𝟏
𝜶 = 𝟎. 𝟎𝟓 or
𝜶 = 𝟎. 𝟏𝟎
Furthermore, if the alternative hypothesis used ≠,

then alpha will be divided by 2, i.e.,
𝜶⁄ = 𝟎. 𝟎𝟎𝟓

𝜶⁄ = 𝟎. 𝟎𝟐𝟓 or

2. An average construction worker hourly rate pay in the Philippines is Php 62.50 with
a standard deviation of Php 6.01. A random sample of 20 manufacturing workers were
asked on their hourly rate and found out that they had an average of Php 50.00 hourly
rate pay with a standard deviation of Php 5.00. Construct a 90% confidence interval
that the average hourly rate for construction workers is higher than the average hourly
rate for manufacturing workers.
3. A chemist invented an additive to increase the lifespan of rechargeable battery. The

said additive will extend on average the battery’s lifespan to 48 months. Test the
hypothesis at 0.01 level of significance that the average lifespan is higher than 48
months.
4. The average number of years to finish basic education is 14. A sample of 30 senior
high school students were asked and found out that the mean number of years to finish
their basic education is 12 with a standard deviation of 2 years. Test the hypothesis at
93% confidence interval that the average number of years to finish basic education is
less than 14 years.
5. A sample of 100 private school students were surveyed whether they plan to

LESSON 1.4
CRITICAL REGION
➢ Critical region, also known as rejection region, is a range of values that

corresponds to the rejection of the null hypothesis. If the value of the test statistic
is within the critical region, then the null hypothesis is rejected. Otherwise, the
null hypothesis is not rejected. This will be based on the alternative hypothesis.
➢ Critical values of the tests of hypotheses are the number or numbers that
determine the rejection region. Thus, critical region might be a single number or
an interval.
For one-tailed test or directional test <, the critical region is at the left side of the
acceptance region.
For one-tailed test or directional test >, the critical region is at the right side of the
acceptance region.
For two-tailed test or non-directional test ≠, the critical region is at the left and
right sides of the acceptance region.
Below is the illustration of the different critical region.

10
For example, suppose that a normally distributed population has a standard
deviation 𝜎 = 0.12. Given a sample size 𝑛 = 10, 𝐻0 : 𝜇 = 10 and 𝐻1 : 𝜇 > 10. Construct
the rejection region if 𝛼 = 0.05.
Solution:
𝜎 0.12
𝜇𝑋̅ = 𝜇 = 10 and 𝜎𝑋̅ = = = 0.03794733192202 …
√𝑛 √10
Notice that 𝐻1 : 𝜇 > 10, this is one directional test. Using the standard normal table,
𝑧𝛼 = 𝑧0.05 = 1.645.
Hence, the
𝒄𝒓𝒊𝒕𝒊𝒄𝒂𝒍 𝒗𝒂𝒍𝒖𝒆 = 𝜇 + (𝑧𝛼 )(𝜎𝑋̅ )
= 10 + (1.645)(0.038 … )
= 10 + 0.0624
= 10.0624
The critical region is illustrated below. It is the darkened area right side of 10.0624.
Another example, suppose that a normally distributed population has a

standard deviation 𝜎 = 0.12. Given a sample size 𝑛 = 10, 𝐻0 : 𝜇 = 7 and 𝐻1 : 𝜇 ≠ 7.
Construct the rejection region if 𝛼 = 0.10.
Solution:
𝜎 0.12
𝜇𝑋̅ = 𝜇 = 7 and 𝜎𝑋̅ = = = 0.03794733192202 …
𝑛
√ √10
Notice that 𝐻1 : 𝜇 ≠ 7,this is a two-tailed test. Using the standard normal table,
𝑧𝛼 = 𝑧0.10 = 𝑧0.05 = 1.645.
2 2
Hence, the critical value is computed in this way
critical value = 𝜇 − (𝑧𝛼⁄2 ) (𝜎𝑋̅ ) and critical value = 𝜇 + (𝑧𝛼⁄2 ) (𝜎𝑋̅ )
= 7 − (1.645)(0.038 … ) = 7 + (1.645)(0.038 … )
= 7 − 0.0624 = 7 + 0.0624
= 6.9376 = 7.0624

WHAT I HAVE LEARNED
➢ Hypothesis testing is a process in making decisions in evaluating a claim

about the population based on the characteristics of a sample from the same
population.
➢ Null Hypothesis is a claim about the population which states no difference, no
changes, or no relationship between or among variables.
➢ Alternative hypothesis is a claim about the population which states
differences, changes, relationships between or among variables.
➢ Level of significance is the probability of committing a Type I error.
➢ Critical region also known as rejection region, is a range of values that
corresponds to the rejection of the null hypothesis.
➢ Type I error is an error committed when rejecting a true null hypothesis.

LESSON 2
EXPLORING TESTING HYPOTHESIS
After learning some basic concepts involved in hypothesis testing, you

are now ready to learn the parameters involved in the process. This is very
important because this will guide you on selecting the appropriate steps and
formula to be used during the test. Real-life problems will be given and used to
determine the parameter to be tested.
Parameter is a number that summarizes some aspect of the population
as a whole. Examples are population mean and the population variance. On the
other hand, statistics is a value computed from the samples. Examples are
sample mean and sample variance. Hypothesis is a claim about the parameter
like the population mean 𝜇 or the population proportion 𝑝. The examples in this
lesson will use claims about the population mean 𝜇.
What I Need to Know
1. Identify the parameter to be tested given a real-life problem. (M11/12SP-IVa-3)

2. Formulate the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses on a population mean
(M11/12SP-IVb-1).
What I know
A. Read and understand the statements below and identify the term described.
Write your answers in your activity notebooks.
1. It is a claim in a research that states no differences among the variables is involved.
2. It is a set of values that could reject a claim of a research.
3. It is the probability of rejecting a true null hypothesis.
4. It is also known as non-directional test.
5. It is a value computed from the data of the entire population which is done by adding
all the data and divided by the number of data.
6. It is the square of a population standard deviation.
7. It is committed when accepting a false null hypothesis.
8. It is committed when rejecting a true null hypothesis.
9. It is done to the level of significance for non-directional test.
10. It is the confidence level when the level of significance is 10%.

LESSON 2.1
z-Test on the Comparison Between the Population Mean and Sample

Mean
Decision making is part of our daily lives. We are given different options. This
situation is the same as in testing hypothesis. Options can be treated as hypotheses.
It is like the process of selecting which of these options is the best solution to our
problem. There are steps to follow to come up with the solution. Now, we will learn
these steps. The first step in hypothesis testing is the formulation of the null and
alternative hypotheses.
z-test on the comparison between the population mean 𝝁 and sample mean 𝒙 ̅
is used when the population mean 𝝁 and the population standard deviation 𝝈 are
known, and 𝝁 is compared to a sample mean 𝒙 ̅.
It is also important to identify the parameters or statistics involve in the problem
to determine the appropriate formula.
Example 2.1. Read and understand the problems below. Determine the values
of the parameters, statistics and sample size involved and formulate the null
and alternative hypotheses.
Example 2.1.1
A manufacturer of ethyl alcohol has developed a new packaging design. He

claims that the new packaging design has an average reduction of production
expenses of Php 5.00 per bottle with a standard deviation of Php 2.00. A manager of
one of their satellite production branch claims that the 200 samples of this new
packaging design has an average reduction of production expenses of Php 3.00. Test
the difference of the population and sample means at 0.05 level of significance.
Solution:
Given: sample size 𝑛 = 200
Parameter: population mean 𝜇0 = 5 population standard deviation 𝜎 = 2
Statistic: sample mean 𝑥̅ = 3
Formulation of null and alternative hypotheses.
𝐻0 : The average reduction of production expenses of the new packaging design
of ethyl alcohol is Php 5.00.
In symbol, 𝐻0 : 𝜇 = 5
𝐻1 : The average reduction of production expenses of the new packaging design
of ethyl alcohol is less than Php 5.00.
In symbol, 𝐻1 : 𝜇 < 5
(We used less than in 𝐻1 because the sample average is Php3.00 which is less than
the population average Php5.00)
18
Example 2.1.2
A manufacturer of face mask has developed a new face mask design. He

claims that the new design has an average profit increase of 10% with a standard
deviation of 3%. Test the hypothesis that the new face mask design average profit
increase is not 10% if a random sample of 50 face masks is tested with an average
profit increase of 4%. Use 10% level of significance.
Solution:
Step 1. Formulation of null and alternative hypotheses.
𝐻0 : The average profit increase of the new face mask design is 10%.
In symbol, 𝐻0 : 𝜇 = 10%

deviation of 3, use 5% level of significance to test the hypothesis.
3. A kinder teacher developed a coloring worksheet for her pupils. Using this
worksheet, the pupils’ performance has a mean score of 90 and a standard deviation
of 10. Fifty kinder pupils from a certain barangay were asked to answer the said

LESSON 2.2
t-Test on the Comparison Between the Population

Mean and Sample Mean
This test will be used when the population standard deviation 𝜎 is unknown but
the sample standard deviation 𝑠 is known or can be computed. The t-test will replace
z-test. The degrees of freedom df is the number of pieces of independent information
available for computing variability. The required number of degrees of freedom varies
depending on the size of the distribution. Hence, for a single group of population 𝑑𝑓 =
𝑁 − 1 and for two groups 𝑑𝑓 = 𝑁1 + 𝑁2 − 1 for t-test where 𝑁, 𝑁1 , and 𝑁2 are the
population sizes.
Example 2.2. Read and understand the problems below. Determine the values
of the parameters, statistics and sample size involved and formulate the null

Example 2.2.1
The mean number of hours a student consumes to finish answering the

Statistics Module is 5 hours. A random sample of 15 students was asked and found
that their mean number of hours to finish answering the Statistics module is 6 hours
with a standard deviation of 2 hours. Test the hypothesis at 5% level of significance.
Solution:
Parameter: population mean 𝜇0 = 5
Statistic: sample mean 𝑥̅ = 6 sample standard deviation 𝑠 = 2

𝐻0 : The mean number of hours a student consumes to finish answering the
Statistics Module is 5 hours.
𝐻1 : The mean number of hours a student consumes to finish answering the

Statistics Module is greater than 5 hours
In symbol, 𝐻1 : 𝜇 > 5
(We used greater than in 𝐻1 because the sample mean 6 is greater than the population
mean 5.)
Example 2.2.2
In a study of television viewing, the mean number of television programs they

watched during daytime was 7. A survey was conducted on the random sample of 25
households and found that the mean number of television program they watched
during daytime was 5 with a standard deviation of 1.5. Test the hypothesis at 10%
level of significance.
Statistic: sample mean 𝑥̅ = 5 sample standard deviation 𝑠 = 1.5
𝐻0 : The mean number of television program they watched during daytime was
7.
𝐻1 : The mean number of television program they watched during daytime was
less than 7.
In symbol, 𝐻1 : 𝜇 < 7
(We used less than because the sample mean 5 is less than the population mean 7.)

Example 2.2.3
A rural health unit conducted a survey on the heights of the male aged 18 to 24
years old. It was found out that the mean height of male aged 18 to 24 years old was

old is not 70 inches if a random sample of 20 male aged 18 to 24 years old had a
mean height of 65 inches with a standard deviation of 3. Use 1% level of significance.

Statistic: sample mean 𝑥̅ = 65 sample standard deviation 𝑠 = 3

𝐻0 : The mean height of male aged 18 to 24 years old was 70 inches.
𝐻1 : The mean height of male aged 18 to 24 years old was not 70 inches

exercises in a day during the quarantine period. She found out that the mean number
of hours a person exercises in a day during the quarantine period is 80 minutes. A

and a standard deviation of 10 minutes. Test the hypothesis at 2% level of significance
and assume that the population is normally distributed.
2. A study was conducted to determine the marrying age of teachers. It was found out
that the mean marrying age of teachers is 30 years old. Fifteen teachers were

of times a family went to buy necessities in a week. They found that the mean is 4
times in a week. A random sample of 20 families were asked and found a mean of 5
times in a week and a standard deviation of 2. Use 5% significance level to test that
the population mean is not equal to 5. Assume that the population is normally
distributed.
WHAT I HAVE LEARNED
➢ The parameters present in a hypothesis testing problem will guide us in

choosing the appropriate type of test.
➢ Parameter is a value computed using the entire data of population while statistic
is a value computed from a sample.
➢ When both parameter and samples were given, the use of parameter will
prevail.
➢ In formulating alternative hypotheses be mindful of the keywords for inequality
or the keywords for not equal.
➢ A statistic value is usually mentioned together with the sample size of the
sample.

LESSON 3.1
TEST STATISTIC WHEN THE POPULATION VARIANCE IS ASSUMED TO

BE KNOWN
Test statistic is a value computed from the data. The test statistic is used to
assess the evidence in rejecting or accepting the null hypothesis. Each statistic test is
used for a different test. You can use the z-score, t-score, the F-statistic, or Chi-Square
statistic. These will be used for the following tests, z-test, t-test, ANOVA test, and Chi-
square test, respectively. All data must be assumed to be normally distributed. Here,
we will consider three conditions in choosing the appropriate test statistic. These three
are when the population variance is assumed to be known, when the population
variance is assumed to be unknown, and when using the Central Limit Theorem.
In this condition, the z-score is used. The formula for z-score is given by the
formula below.

z is the z-score, 𝑥̅ is the sample mean, 𝜇0 is the population mean,

TEST STATISTIC USING CENTRAL LIMIT THEOREM
The Central Limit Theorem states that if a random samples of size n are drawn
from a large or infinite population with finite mean 𝜇 and variance 𝜎 2 , then the sampling
distribution of the sample mean is approximately normally distributed with mean 𝝁𝒙̅ =
𝝈 √𝒏(𝒙
̅−𝝁)
𝝁 and a standard deviation of 𝝈𝒙̅ = . Hence, 𝒁 = or equivalently,
√𝒏 𝝈
̅~𝑵(𝝁, 𝝈𝟐 /𝒏).
𝒙
In other words, the sampling distribution of the sample means approaches

a normal distribution as the sample size gets larger — no matter what the shape of the
population distribution. This fact holds especially true for sample sizes over 30. All this
is saying is that as you take more samples, especially large ones, your graph of
the sample means will look more like a normal distribution.
The average of your sample means44will be the population mean. Compute the
sum of all means from all samples divided by the number of means added. The result
is the actual population mean. Similarly, the average of all of the standard deviations of
all samples is the actual standard deviation for your population.

Example 3.3.1.
San Corporation gives a monthly benefit to their employees during the COVID19 pandemic.
They claimed that the average monthly benefit of their employees is at least Php 5, 000.00. A
random sample of 35 employees were taken as samples to verify the said claim and found
that their average monthly benefit is Php 6, 000.00 with a standard deviation of Php 600.00.
Is the company’s claim correct at 0.05 level of significance? Assume that the population is

LESSON 4.1
REJECTION REGION WHEN THE POPULATION VARIANCE IS ASSUMED

TO BE KNOWN
After the test statistic is computed, the critical region is set. The set of all
possible values of the test statistic could range from negative infinity to positive infinity.
This will be divided into two regions. One region will be set as the acceptance region
and the other one is the rejection or critical region. The division of these two regions
will be based on the alternative hypothesis. Review lesson 1.4.
In constructing the rejection region, it is important to correctly formulate the

alternative hypothesis. Recall that there are three possible symbols to be used in the
formulation of the alternative hypothesis, namely, >, <, ≠. Each of these will have a
corresponding critical region.
Below is the summary of the possible alternative hypotheses and their

corresponding critical region for testing population mean when the population variance
is assumed to be known.
Alternative Hypothesis Critical Region/s

𝜇 < 𝜇0 𝑧 < −𝑧𝛼
𝜇 > 𝜇0 𝑧 > 𝑧𝛼
𝜇 ≠ 𝜇0 𝑧 < −𝑧𝛼⁄2 or 𝑧 > 𝑧𝛼⁄2
Where 𝜇 is the population mean, 𝜇0 is the possible value of the population mean,
𝑧 is the value of test statistic and −𝑧𝛼, 𝑧𝛼 , −𝑍𝛼⁄2 and 𝑍𝛼⁄2 are the critical values.
Let us determine the given, formulate the null and alternative hypotheses, compute
the test statistic and construct the acceptance and critical regions of examples 2.1.1,
2.1.2, and 2.1.3.
From Example 2.1.1

Null and alternative hypotheses

𝐻0 : The average reduction of production expenses of the new packaging design of
ethyl alcohol is Php 5.00.
𝐻0 : 𝜇 = 5

𝐻1 : The average reduction of production expenses of the new packaging design of
ethyl alcohol is less than Php 5.00.
𝐻1 : 𝜇 < 5

𝐻0 : The average profit increase of the new face mask design is 10%
𝐻0 : 𝜇 = 10
𝐻1 : The average profit increase of the new face mask design is not 10%.

𝐻0 : 𝜇 = 80
𝐻1 : The mean score of Grade 11 students is greater than 80.

WHAT’S NEW
LESSON 5.1
PROBLEMS INVOLVING TEST OF HYPOTHESIS ON THE POPULATION
MEAN
In this lesson, several test of hypotheses problems will be given and

answered. This time most of the examples from previous lessons will be
completely answered.
From Example 2.1.1
Given: 𝑛 = 200, 𝜇 = 5, 𝜎 = 2, 𝑥̅ = 5, 𝛼 = 0.05

1. Formulate the null and alternative hypotheses:
𝐻0 : 𝜇 = 5
𝐻1 : 𝜇 < 5
2. Specify the level of significance to be used: 𝛼 = 0.05
3. Select the appropriate and compute test statistic
̅−𝝁
𝒙 𝟑−𝟓
𝒛=( ) (√𝒏) = ( ) (√𝟐𝟎𝟎) = −𝟏𝟒. 𝟏𝟒
𝝈 𝟐
4. Establish the critical region/s: Based on 𝐻1 , this is a one-tailed test (left-tailed
test) with critical regions 𝑧 < −𝑧𝛼 where −𝑧𝛼 = −𝑧0.05 = −1.645.
The critical region (shaded part) is illustrated below.
5. Make a statistical decision

Since −14.14 < −1.645 is TRUE, 𝐻0 is rejected. From the illustration
below, −14.14 lies within the critical region (shaded part).
6. Draw the appropriate conclusion: There is enough evidence to conclude that
the average reduction of production expenses per bottle is less than Php 5.00.
From Example 2.2.1
Given: 𝑥̅ = 6, 𝜇0 = 5, 𝑠 = 2, 𝑛 = 15, 𝑣 = 𝑑𝑓 = 15 − 1 = 14 and 𝛼 = 0.05
1. Hypotheses: 𝐻0 : 𝜇 = 5 and 𝐻1 : 𝜇 > 5

2. Significance level: 𝜶 = 0.05 and 𝑣 = 14
̅−𝝁

3. Test Statistic: 𝒕 = ( ) (√𝒏) = ( ) (√𝟏𝟓) = 𝟏. 𝟗𝟒
𝒔 𝟐
4. Critical region:
Since > is used in 𝐻1 , 𝑡 > 𝑡𝛼,𝑣 will be used. Now using the student t-distribution
table, the value of 𝑡𝛼,𝑣 is 𝑡𝛼,𝑣 = 𝑡0.05,14 = 1.761
The critical region (shaded region) is constructed below.
5. Decision: Since 1.94 > 1.761 is TRUE, 𝐻0 is rejected. From the

illustration above, 1.94 lies within the critical region.
6. Conclusion: There is sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean number of

hours to finish answering the Statistics module is greater than 5 hours.
From Example 2.2.3

Given: 𝑥̅ = 65, 𝜇0 = 70, 𝑠 = 32, 𝑛 = 20, and 𝛼 = 1% = 0.01
1. Hypotheses: 𝐻0 : 𝜇 = 70 and 𝐻1 : 𝜇 ≠ 70
𝛼 0.01

4. Critical region: Since ≠ is used in 𝐻1 , 𝑡 < −𝑡𝛼⁄2,𝑣 or 𝑡 > 𝑡𝛼⁄2,𝑣 will be used. Now
using the student t-distribution table, the value of −𝑡𝛼⁄2,𝑣 is
−𝑡𝛼⁄2,𝑣 = −𝑡0.005, 19 = −2.861 and 𝑡0.005, 19 = 2.861.The critical regions are
illustrated below.
−0.70

5. Decision: Since −0.70 < −2.861 is FALSE and −0.70 > 2.861 is also FALSE,
𝐻0 is rejected. From the illustration above, −0.70 lies between the two
critical regions.
6. Conclusion: There is no sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean height
of male aged 18 to 24 years old was 70 inches.
ASSESSMENT
Perform as indicated in the problems below. Write the given and your answers
in your activity notebook.
1. A seller claimed that her lip tint has a mean organic content of 90%. A rival seller
asked 60 users of that lip tint and found that it has a mean organic content of 85% with
a standard deviation of 5%. Test the claim at 1% level of significance and assume that
the population is approximately normally distributed.
2. An association of City Mayors conducted a study to determine the average number

of times a family went to buy necessities in a week. They found that the mean is 4
times in a week. A random sample of 20 families were asked and found a mean of 5
times in a week and a standard deviation of 2. Use 5% significance level to test that
the population mean is not equal to 5. Assume that the population is normally
distributed.

Lesson 6
TEST OF HYPOTHESIS ON THE POPULATION PROPORTION
In this lesson, hypothesis testing will be used on population proportion. There

are real-life situations where population mean is not used, instead it uses population
proportion. The procedure is in some way similar to that of population mean and might
differ in some aspects.

10. When the evidence is sufficient to reject the null hypothesis, a significant
difference exists.

What’s In
There are certain situations when the data to be analyzed involve population
proportions or percentages. For example, a politician may want to know the
percentage of his constituents who approve of his policy on educational reform. A
manufacturer may want to know the proportions of defective products in the assembly
line. This type of problems uses a different approach.
What is It
When testing about a proportion, the following assumptions must be made:
1. The conditions for a binomial experiment are met. That is, there is a fixed
number of independent trials with constant probabilities and each trial has two
outcomes that we usually classify as “success” and “failure”.
2. The condition 𝑛𝑝 ≥ 5 and 𝑛𝑞 ≥ 5 are both satisfied so that the binomial
distribution with 𝜇 = 𝑛𝑝 and 𝜎 = √𝑛𝑝𝑞.
If all the above conditions are met, the test statistic is the z-test statistic for
proportions. The formula for computing this value is:
𝑆𝑎𝑚𝑝𝑙𝑒 𝑝𝑟𝑜𝑝𝑜𝑟𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛−𝑁𝑢𝑙𝑙 𝐻𝑦𝑝𝑜𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑠𝑖𝑧𝑒𝑑 𝑝𝑟𝑜𝑝𝑜𝑟𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛

Test statistic: 𝑧 = 𝑆𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑑𝑎𝑟𝑑 𝑑𝑒𝑣𝑖𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑜𝑓 𝑠𝑎𝑚𝑝𝑙𝑒 𝑝𝑟𝑜𝑝𝑜𝑟𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛
𝑝̂ − 𝑝0
𝑧=
𝜎𝑝̂
𝑋
Where: 𝑝̂ = 𝑛 ,
𝑝0 = is the hypothesized population proportion p,
𝑝𝑞
𝜎𝑝̂ = √ 𝑛 is the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of 𝑝̂ .
𝑝0 𝑞0
However, we use 𝜎𝑝̂ = √ in computing the value of the test statistic
𝑛
z because we are going to use the hypothesized value 𝑝0 .
Note: 𝑞0 = 1 − 𝑝0 .
Test statistics z for proportions is:

𝑝̂ − 𝑝0
𝑧=
𝑝 𝑞
√ 0𝑛 0
48
What’s More
In general,
• For a one-tailed test:

𝐻0 : 𝑝 = 𝑝0
𝐻1 : 𝑝 > 𝑝0 and the rejection region is 𝑧 > +𝑧𝑎
Or (𝐻1 : 𝑝 < 𝑝0 ) and the rejection region is 𝑧 < −𝑧𝑎
• For a two-tailed test:
𝐻0 : 𝑝 = 𝑝0
𝐻1 : 𝑝 ≠ 𝑝0
The rejection region is 𝑧 < −𝑧𝑎 𝑜𝑟 𝑧 > 𝑧𝑎 .
2 2
What I Have learned
The following are the steps in solving problems involving testing

hypothesis on the population proportion:
1. Describe the population parameter of interest.

2. Formulate the hypothesis.
3. Check the assumptions.
4. Check a significance level size for 𝛼.
5. Select the appropriate test statistic.
6. State the decision rule for rejecting or not rejecting the null hypothesis.
7. Compare the computed values.
8. Interpret the result.
What I Can Do
We will now apply the formula and steps involving testing hypothesis on the
population proportion.
Example 1: Using the 0.5 level of significance run a z-test given the following:
5
n=74; 𝑝̂ = 74; 𝑝0 = 10%
Solution:
1. The parameter of interest is the population proportion p.
2. 𝐻0 : 𝑝 = 𝑝0
𝐻0 : 𝑝 = 0.10
𝐻1 : 𝑝 ≠ 0.10
49
3. With 𝒏 = 𝟕𝟒, the Central Limit Theorem applies.
4. 𝛼 = 0.5, Two-tailed (The problem does not suggest direction.

𝑝̂−𝑝0
5. 𝑧 = 𝑝 𝑞
√ 0𝑛 0
5
𝑝̂ = = 0.068
74
𝑝0 = 0.10
𝑞0 = 1 − 𝑝0 = 1-0.10 = 0.9
Note: In the p-value approach, we compute the probability value to the left of -
0.91. The area between 𝑧 = 0 and 𝑧 = 0.91 is given in z-table as 0.3186.
0.068−0.1
Therefore,𝑧the= observed probability value is 0.5000-0.3186 = 0.1814. Since the
(0.1)(0.9)
√
test is two-tailed, the74 p-value is multiplied by 2. So, p-value = 0.1814 x 2 = 0.3628.
𝒛 = −𝟎. 𝟗𝟏
6. Reject the 𝑯𝟎 if the computed probability value is ≤ 0.05. Do not reject (or
accept) 𝑯𝟎 if the computed probability value > 0.05.
7. We know that 0.3628 > 0.05
8. Thus, based on the evidence at hand we cannot reject the null hypothesis
𝑯𝟎 . There is no significant difference between the sample proportion and the
Example 2: Mr. Sy asserts that fewer than 5% of the bulbs that he sells are defective.
Suppose 300 bulbs are randomly selected and tested and 10 defective bulbs are
found. Does this provide sufficient evidence for Mr. Sy to conclude that the fraction of
defective bulbs is less than 0.05? use𝛼 = 0.01.
Solution:
1. The parameter of interest is the population proportion p.
2. 𝐻0 : 𝑝 = 𝑝0
𝐻0 : 𝑝 = 0.05
𝐻1 : 𝑝 ≠ 0.05
3. With 𝒏 = 𝟑𝟎𝟎, the Central Limit Theorem applies.
4. 𝛼 = 0.5, one-tailed (clue word: fewer than).

𝑝̂−𝑝0
5. 𝑧 = 𝑝 𝑞
√ 0𝑛 0
10
𝑝̂ = = 0.033
300
50
So, p-value = 𝑃(𝑧 ≤ −1.35)
The area between z=0 and z=-1.35 is .4115.
So, 𝑃(𝑧 ≤ −1.35) = .05 − .4115 = 0.885
That is, p-value = 0.885
𝑝0 = 0.05
𝑞0 = 1 − 𝑝0 = 1-0.05 = 0.95
0.033−0.5
𝑧= (0.5)(0.95)

𝒛 = −𝟏. 𝟑𝟓
6. Reject the 𝑯𝟎 if the computed probability value is ≤ 0.05. Do not reject (or
accept) 𝑯𝟎 if the computed probability value > 0.05.
7. We know that 0.885 > 0.01
8. Thus, based on the evidence at hand we cannot reject the null hypothesis
