Can You Taste the Rainbow?

Many students claim that they can taste the different colors of Skittles. Today we will conduct
an experiment to see if this class can really can “Taste the Rainbow”.

Lesson App 9.4 Who feels job stress?

A news report claims that 75% of restaurant employees feel that work stress has a negative impact on
their personal lives. Managers of a large restaurant chain wonder if this claim is valid for their
employees. A random sample of 100 employees finds that 68 answer “Yes” when asked, “Does work
stress have a negative impact on your personal life?” Do these data give convincing evidence at the α
= 0.10 level that the proportion of all employees in this chain who would say “Yes” differs from 0.75?

STATE:
p = the proportion of all employees at a large restaurant chain who would say they feel that work stress has a
negative impact on their lives. Use α = 0.10
H 0 : p = 0.75
H a : p ¹ 0.75
The evidence for Ha is: p̂ = 68/100 = 0.68 ≠ 0.75.

PLAN: One-sample z test for p


Random? Random sample of 100 employees. ü
Large counts? np0 = 100(0.75) = 75 ≥ 10 and n(1 - p0 ) =100(1 – 0.75) = 25 ≥ 10. ü

68 0.68 - 0.75
DO: pˆ = = 0.68 z= = -1.62
100 0.75(1 - 0.75) Standard
100 normal curve

P-value:

Using Table A: P-value = 2(0.0526) = 0.1052


Using technology: z = –1.62, P-value = 0.1060.
z = –1.62 z = 1.62

CONCLUDE: Because the P-value of 0.1060 > α = 0.10, we fail to reject H0. We do not have convincing
evidence that the proportion of all employees in this chain who would say they feel that work stress has a
negative impact on their lives is different from the news report claim of 75%.
