How to find the P value in hypothesis testing? The photo attached is the question per se.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (amistre64):

one tailed or 2 tailed results?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

in order to determine the p value, you have to know if the results you are looking for are one tailed or two tailed. and the hypots tell us that much.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It is two tailed.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

since we are 2 tailed, we need to double that value we get for the z score probability

OpenStudy (anonymous):

therefore, for z=2.28, it would be \[\frac{ 1-0.988696 }{ 2 } = 0.00565\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

hmm, P(z>2.28) depending on how you find the probability .. is .0113 we need to double that soo: P-value = .0226 http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=P%28z%3E2.28%29
