Question

In the past, 75% of the tourists who visited Chattanooga went to see Rock City. The management of Rock City recently undertook an extensive promotional campaign. They are interested in determining whether the promotional campaign actually INCREASED the proportion of tourists visiting Rock City. The correct set of hypotheses is _____.

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct set of hypotheses is:

$H_0: \pi=0.75\\\\H_a:\pi>0.75$

Step-by-step explanation:

This should be researched with a hypothesis test on the proportion of tourists visiting Rock City.

The claim that want to be tested is if the proportion has increased from the past proportion (π=0.75).

Then, the alternative hypothesis will state that the proportion is significantly higher than 0.75.

On the contrary, the alternative hypothesis will state that the proportion is not significantly different than 0.75.

This can be written as:

$H_0: \pi=0.75\\\\H_a:\pi>0.75$
