First year students: Mean 125, SD?, size 350
Third year students: Mean 112, SD?, size 150
Significance level = 0.02
Solution
Let
group 1 = first year
group 2 = third year
Formulating the hypotheses
Ho: p1^ - p2^ >= 0
Ha: p1^ - p2^ < 0
Here, we see that pdo = 0 , the hypothesized population proportion difference.
Getting p1^ and p2^,
p1^ = x1/n1 = 0.357142857
p2 = x2/n2 = 0.746666667
Also, the standard error of the difference is
sd = sqrt[ p1 (1 - p1) / n1 + p2 (1 - p2) / n2] = 0.043783715
Thus,
z = [p1 - p2 - pdo]/sd = -8.896545395
As significance level = 0.02 , then the critical z is
zcrit = -2.053748911
Also, the p value is
P = 2.8806E-19
Thus comparing z and zcrit (or p and significance level), then we REJECT THE NULL
HYPOTHESIS.
Thus, there is significant evidence that the proportion of third year students who buy used
textbooks is greater than the proportion of first year student who buy used textbooks.
