The rate of allergies in children was 15% in 2002. A medical researcher is curious whether advances in medicine have reduced this proportion and decides to conduct a hypothesis test. In a random sample of 500 children, he finds that 65 of them have allergies. Conduct an appropriate hypothesis test in questions #17 - #20.


Using the P-Value from the previous question, what is the conclusion of our hypothesis test at the α = 0.05 significance level?






Reject the null hypothesis. We have sufficient evidence to conclude that the rate of allergies in children has decreased since 2002.



Do not reject the null hypothesis. We do not have sufficient evidence to conclude that the rate of allergies in children has decreased since 2002.



The test was inconclusive.
