Question

the claim is that the portion of peas with yellow pods is equal to.25 or 25%. the sample statistics from one experiment include 580 peas with 176 of them having yellow pods. Find the value of the test statistic.

Answer 1

The value of the test statistic can be worked out by finding how many yellow pods were found out of the total peas.

Therefore, you do 176 over 580 (176/580) and you should find that the test statistic is 0.30 or 30% (nearest tenth).
