Two-Sample Test of Proportions ( Z-Test )

1. A random sample of 200 registered voters in each of two districts resulted in 45 of 200 urban voters
supporting property reassessment while 55 suburban voters out of 200 favored reassessment. Is the
proportion of voters who favor reassessment the same in each district? (Use .05 level of significant ).

Solution:
Step 1. Ho : P1 = P2
Step 2. Ha : P1 ≠ P2
Step 3. α = .05; The critical value of z is ± 1.96.
P1−P2
Step 4. The test statistics is Z =

Two-Sample Test of Means ( Dependent t – Test )

2. It is claimed that a new diet will reduce a person’s weight by 10 pounds on the average in a
period of 2 weeks. The weights of 7 women who followed this diet were recorded before and after 2 –
week period.
