Question Answered step-by-step Members of the city council want to know if a majority of city… Members of the city council want to know if a majority of city residents supports a 1% increase in the sales tax to fund road repairs. To investigate, they survey a random sample of 300 city residents and use the results to test the following hypotheses:??0:??????:??=0.50>0.50 where ?? is the proportion of all city residents who support a 1% increase in the sales tax to fund road repairs.Given that ??-value = 0.18, which of the following would be the most appropriate conclusion? A.  Because the ??-value is large, we fail to reject ??0. We have convincing evidence that more than 50% of city residents support the tax increase.B.  Because the ??-value is large, we reject ??0. We have convincing evidence that at most 50% of city residents support the tax increase.C.  Because the ??-value is large, we fail to reject ??0. We do not have convincing evidence that more than 50% of city residents support the tax increase.D.  Because the ??-value is large, we reject ??0. We have convincing evidence that at most 50% of city residents support the tax increase. Math Statistics and Probability MATH 101 Share QuestionEmailCopy link Comments (0)
