Binomial

Cards (5)

  • Test statistic: number of successes observed
  • H0H_0 : p =p\ = k\ k (this is usually given in the question)
  • H1H_1 : p > kp\ >\ k or p < kp\ <\ k or p kp\ \ne k (two-tailed)
  • Assume H0H_0 i.e. X  B(n,k)X\ \sim\ B\left(n,k\right)
  • Find P(X or value in question)P\left(X\ \ge or\ \le value\ in\ question\right) and go more "extreme"
    • if P < αP\ <\ \alpha , reject H0H_0
    • if P > αP\ >\ \alpha , no evidence to reject H0H_0
