Question

If the decision is to reject the null hypothesis at the 5% level of significance, what are the acceptable alternate hypothesis and rejection region? A) p1 ≠ p2; z > 1.65 and z < - 1.65 B) p1 ≠ p2; z > 1.96 and z < - 1.96 C) p1 > p2; z < - 1.65 D) p1 > p2; z < - 1.96 E) None of these statements is correct

At a 5% level of significance for a two-tailed test, the critical z-values are ±1.96. Therefore, the rejection region for the alternate hypothesis p1 ≠ p2 is z > 1.96 or z < -1.96.
