Practice with p-values Work through these problems with your computer partner and/or instructor. Answers follow the problem set. 1. Suppose we’ve done the computation of the Z test statistic. For each of the following situations determine the p-value that goes along with Z. a. Z = 2.12‚ two-sided test b. Z = 4.55‚ two-sided test c. Z = -1.40‚ lower-tail test 2. Suppose Z = 1.92.Which has a smaller p-value‚ the upper-tail test or the two-sided test? From this‚ is it more likely to have a
