At the end of a 52-week study to determine how to help smokers quit, subjects were randomly placed into a nicotine lozenge group or a placebo group. To determine if the randomization was effective, the proportion of males in each group was obtained. The researchers found that 42.9% of the 459 subjects given the nicotine lozenge were males, and 40.2% of the 458 subjects given the placebo were males. Determine thep-value and test decision for determining if the proportion of males in the two groups differed. Useα= 0.05.


p-value = 0.601; fail to rejectH0



p-value = 0.040; rejectH0



p-value = 0.399; rejectH0



p-value = 0.399; fail to rejectH0
