As part of a Pew Research Center Poll, subjects were asked if there is solid evidence that the
earth is getting warmer. Among 1501 respondents, 20% said that there is not such evidence. Use
a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that less than 25% of the population believes that there
is not solid evidence that the earth is getting warmer.
Find the test statistic. Is it a t-statistic or a z-statistic?
Solution
It is a Z statistic.
The test statistic is
Z=(phat-p)/[p*(1-p)/n]
=(0.2-0.25)/sqrt(0.25*0.75/1501)
=-4.47
