Question

Consider two independent populations for which the proportion of successes in the first population is p1 and the proportion of successes in the second population is p2. What alternate hypothesis would indicate that the proportion of successes p1 in the first population is larger than the proportion of successes p2 in the second population

Answer 1

Answer: $H_a: p_1>p_2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Consider two independent populations for which the proportion of successes in the first population is $p_1$ and the proportion of successes in the second population is $p_2$.

The alternative hypothesis that indicate the proportion of successes $p_1$ in the first population is larger than the proportion of successes $p_2$ in the second population:-

$H_a: p_1>p_2$
