z-Test for a Population Proportion
z-Test for a Population Proportion
A statistical test for a population proportion.
Can be used when a binomial distribution is given such that np 5 and nq 5.
The test statistic is the sample proportion .
The standardized test statistic is z.

Using a z-Test for a Proportion p
Verify that the sampling distribution of can be approximated by the normal distribution.
State the claim mathematically and verbally. Identify the null and alternative hypotheses.
Specify the level of significance.
Determine the critical value(s).
State H0 and Ha.

Using a z-Test for a Proportion p
Determine the rejection region(s).
Find the standardized test statistic and sketch the sampling distribution.
Make a decision to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis.
Interpret the decision in the context of the original claim.
If z is in the rejection region, reject H0. Otherwise, fail to reject H0.
