How do you determine which has a larger P-value?
1. Look carefully at the two scenarios below. For each scenario, we are presenting a null and alternative hypothesis, along with a test statistic. Which scenario will result in a larger P-value?
Scenario #1: Ho: p = 0.81 vs. Ha: p < 0.81, z = -1.7
Scenario #2: Ho: p = 0.37 vs. Ha: p ≠ 0.37, z = 2.2
A. Scenario #1
B. Scenario #2
C. Both scenarios will have the same P-value
D. It’s impossible to answer this question without more information
