SCENARIO 9-2
A student claims that he can correctly identify whether a person is a business major or an agriculture
major by the way the person dresses. Suppose in actuality that if someone is a business major, he can
correctly identify that person as a business major 87% of the time. When a person is an agriculture
major, the student will incorrectly identify that person as a business major 16% of the time. Presented

agriculture major) , he considers this to be a hypothesis test with the null hypothesis being that the
person is a business major and the alternative that the person is an agriculture major.
