Question 20

The probability that a patient experiences a side effect from a medication is 0.40. Daniel believes that an improved version of the medication will decrease the proportion of patients who experience a side effect.

After introducing the improved version, a sample of 75 patients is taken and 22 experience a side effect.

Stating your hypotheses clearly test, at the 5% level of significance, whether or not there is evidence to support Daniel's belief.
