Question

Jason wants to perform a two-tailed test for equality between two independent sample proportions. Each sample has at least 10 "successes" and 10 "failures." Jason's test statistic is -1.44. What is his p-value?

Answer 1

0.149

Explanation:

Given that Jason wants to perform a two-tailed test for equality between two independent sample proportions

Each sample has at least 10 "successes" and 10 "failures."

Jason's test statistic is -1.44

Since here proportions are tested Z test might have been used.

Z statistic = -1.44

We can get p value for this Z statistic

p value=0.149

p value for two tailed is 0.149

Comparing this with t statistic we can decide whether to accept or reject null hypothesis.
