Suppose a city official conducts a hypothesis test to test the claim that the majority of voters support a proposed tax to build sidewalks. Assume that all the conditions for proceeding with a one-sample test on proportions have been met. The calculated test statistic is approximately 1.40 with an associated p-value of approximately 0.081. Choose the conclusion that provides the best interpretation for the p-value at a significance level of α = 0.05.
◦ The p-value should be considered extreme; therefore the hypothesis test proves that the null hypothesis is true.
◦ If the null hypothesis is true, then the probability of getting a test statistic that is as extreme or more extreme than the calculated test statistic of 1.40 is 0.081. This result is surprising and could not easily happen by chance.
◦ If the null hypothesis is true, then the probability of getting a test statistic that is as extreme or more extreme than the calculated test statistic of 1.40 is 0.081. This result is not surprising and could easily happen by chance.
◦ None of these.
