Individual Activity 2: Hypothesis Testing for Population Proportion Date: ___

Instruction: Apply the 6 steps in hypothesis testing for Population Proportion to test
the claim on the given situation.

A researcher wants to test his assumption that 75% of the senior high school
students who enrolled in the academic track wanted to become a teacher. He collected
samples randomly and found out that 25 out of 130 are planning to become a teacher.
Test the validity of the assumption at 0.05 level of significance.

Steps Solutions
1. Formulate the null and the
alternative hypotheses.

2. Determine the type of test, α,

and critical value/s

3. Compute the test statistic

4. State the decision rule

5. Compare z and zcrit, and make

decision on the null
hypothesis.

6. Make a meaningful conclusion

 A teacher wants to test his assumption that less than 30% of the Senior
High School students like research class. After randomly collecting 150 samples,
he found out that only 65 students like research class. Is the teacher’s claim
valid? Test the hypothesis at 5% significance level.

Steps Solutions
1. Formulate the null and the
alternative hypotheses.
