Tests about population proportion
I There are cases where instead of having continuous datasets
we have discrete ones. In that case we are testing the
proportion of times something happens. (For example, the
proportion of times we have heads when we toss a coin)
I There are two type of tests in this case:
I Testing one sample proportion for small sample
I Testing one sample proportion for large sample

Large sample test for one sample proportion
I Null Hypothesis: H0 : p = p0
p p0
I Test statistic: z = p
p0 (1 p0 )/n
I Rejection Regions:
I z z if HA : p > p0
I z z if HA : p < p0
I z z/2 and z z/2 if HA : p 6= p0
I There are two conditions that we need to check, so that the
use of this test is valid. We need:
I np0 10
I n(1 p0 ) 10
