This quiz presents scenarios involving hypothesis testing in different contexts. First, we explore whether the percentage of high school graduates attending college has changed from the 1950s figure of 40%. Next, we evaluate a new soft drink flavor's acceptance, with a marketing plan hinging on at least 60% approval. Finally, we examine an automotive manufacturer's concern over a costly fix needed after 50,000 miles, seeking to confirm if a redesign reduced the issue from an initial 20%. Analyze the null and alternative hypotheses for each situation.
