Question

You are conducting a study to see if the proportion of men over 50 who regularly have their prostate examined is significantly more than 0.58. Thus you are performing a right-tailed test. Your sample data produce the test statistic . Find the p-value accurate to 4 decimal places.

Answer 1

Since it is a right-tailed test, the p-value is p(z > 2.362). Since the normal distribution is symmetric P(z > 2.362) = P(z < -2.362) = 0.009.
