Simulated proportions of samples, n=50
is there evidence that the true proportion of blue beads in the container is less than 0.60?
a Yes, a proportion of 0.5 proves that the true proportion of blue beads in the container is less than 0.6.
b Yes, a proportion of 0.5 only occurred 5 times out of 200 simulated proportions; therefore, there is sufficient evidence that the true proportion of blue beads in the container is less than 0.6.
c No, a proportion of 0.5 is only 0.1 less than a proportion of 0.6; therefore, there is insufficient evidence that the true proportion of blue beads in the container is less than 0.6.
d No, a proportion of 0.5 or less occurred 16 times out of 200 simulated proportions; therefore, there is insufficient evidence that the true proportion of blue beads in the container is less than 0.6.
