Mr. Mastrogiacomo is testing the hypothesis that the proportion of households in a large town that have high-speed internet service is equal to 0.7 against the alternative that the proportion is different from 0.7. What is the chief advantage of using a confidence interval to test this hypothesis rather than a significance test

Answer :

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use a confidence interval (CI) for hypothesis testing. In the typical case, if the CI for an effect does not span 0 then you can reject the null hypothesis. But a CI can be used for more, whereas reporting whether it has been passed is the limit of the usefulness of a test.
