A well-known brokerage firm executive claimed that 20% of investors are currently confident of meeting their investment goals. An XYZ Investor Optimism Survey, conducted over a two week period, found that in a sample of 300 people, 12% of them said they are confident of meeting their goals. Test the claim that the proportion of people who are confident is smaller than 20% at the 0.025 significance level. The null and alternative hypothesis would be: Ho:µ = 0.2 Ho:p > 0.2 Ho:p = 0.2 Ho:p < 0.2 H1:µ + 0.2 H1:p < 0.2 H1:p + 0.2 H1:p > 0.2 Ho: µ > 0.2 Ho : µ < 0.2 H1:µ < 0.2 H1:µ > 0.2 The test is: left-tailed right-tailed two-tailed The test statistic is: (to 3 decimals) The p-value is: (to 4 decimals) Based on this we: Reject the null hypothesis O Fail to reject the null hypothesis
