What is the hypothesis that is being tested?

A restaurant wants to know if more people prefer ranch dressing or honey mustard dressing with their salads. After keeping track of customers’ preference for 3 months, the restaurant learned that a total of 500 people ordered salad, and 300 asked for ranch dressing and 200 asked for honey mustard dressing. Conduct the appropriate statistical test to see if there is a difference between the frequencies of customers ordering the two types of salad dressing. Assume that the expected frequencies are equal, and use an alpha of .05.


Ans: There will be no difference between the number of people who prefer ranch dressing and the number of people who prefer honey mustard dressing.
