A quality standard says that no more than 4 percent of the eggs sold in a store may be cracked (not broken, just cracked). In 5 cartons (12 eggs each carton), 3 eggs are cracked.

(a) Calculate a p-value for the observed sample result. Hint: Use Excel to calculate the binomial probability P(X ≥ 3 | n = 60, π

π = .04) = 1 - P(X ≤ 2 | n = 60, π = .04). (Round your answer to 4 decimal places.)

P(X ≥ 3)    ________

(b) We fail to reject the null hypothesis at α = .10.

• Yes
• No

(c) This sample shows that the standard is exceeded.

Yes

No
