In the production of a plant, a treatment is being evaluated to germinate seed. from a total of 60 seed it was observed that 37 of them germinated. is it possible to claim that most of the seed will germinate? consider a confidence level of 95%.

More than 50% would germinate

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that in the production of a plant, a treatment is being evaluated to germinate seed. From a total of 60 seed it was observed that 37 of them germinated

Let us check whether more than 50% will germinate using hypothesis test

(right tailed test)

Sample proportion p =

p difference = 0.117

Test statistic Z = p difference/std error = 1.864

p value =0.0312

Since p value <0.05 our significance level of 5% we reject null hypothesis

It is  possible to claim that most of the seed will germinate (i.e. more than 50%)

true? is that what you're asking or do you mean something else?
