A company that sponsors LSAT prep courses would like to be able to claim that their courses improve scores. To test this, they take a sample of 20 people, have each take an initial diagnostic test, then take the prep course, and then take a post-test after the course. The test results are below (scores are out of 100%): Person1234567891011121314151617181920Initial Test7368707979606880637865687367606277647069Post-Test7075767493566987778170817377637578706766 Is there evidence, at an α=0.01α=0.01 level of significance, to conclude that the prep course improves scores? Carry out a Wilcoxon signed rank test, filling in the information requested. (Arrange your data so that the standardized test statistic is for the change from the initial test to the post-test.) (a) The value of the test statistic: (b) The rejection region for the standardized test statistic: (c) Your decision for the hypothesis test: A. Reject HaHa. B. Reject H0H0. C. Do Not Reject H0H0. D. Do Not Reject HaHa.

According to previous studies, 12% of the U.S. population is left-handed. Not knowing this, a high school student claims that the percentage of left-handed people in the U.S. is 14%. The student is going to take a random sample of 1650 people in the U.S. to try to gather evidence to support the claim. Let p be the proportion of left-handed people in the sample. Answer the following. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) ✔ (a) Find the mean of p. P. 0 (b) Find the standard deviation of p. (c) Compute an approximation for P (P<0.14), which is the probability that there will be 14% or fewer left-handed people in the sample. Round your answer to four decimal places. X

webassign.net/web/Student/Assignment-Responses/submit?pos=10&dep=22704121&tags=autos A newspaper infographic titled "Social Media Jeopardizing Your Job?" summarized data from a survey of 1,825 recruiters and human resource professionals. The infographic indicated that 53% of the people surveyed had reconsidered a job candidate based on his or her social media profile. Assume that the sample is representative of the population of recruiters and human resource professionals in the United States. (a) Use the given information to estimate the proportion of recruiters and human resource professionals who have reconsidered a job candidate based on his or her social media profile using a 95% confidence interval. (Use a table or technology. Round your answers to three decimal places.) Give an interpretation of the interval in context. There is a 95% chance that the true proportion of recruiters and human resource professionals who have reconsidered a job candidate based on his or her social…

The state highway department is studying traffic patterns on one of the busiest highways in the state. As part of the study. the department needs to estimate the average number of vehicles that pass an intersection each day. One of the department's officer (Officer A) claims that on average, more than 15,000 cars passing the intersection. On the other hand. Officer B claims that on average, 18,000 cars passing the intersection. Meanwhile, a random sample of 64 days gives a sample mean of 14,205 cars and a sample standard deviation of 1,010 cars. Test both claim at 0.05 level of significance. Use the critical value approach and show the complete calculation steps for each testing. Whose claim is true? Testing Officer A's claim Step 1: State the hypotheses Step 2: Find critical value and state the decision rule Step 3: Compute the test value Step 4: Make decision Step 5: Conclusion Testing Officer B's claim Step 1: State the hypotheses Step 2: Find critical value and state the decision…

The data on the number of chocolate chips per bag for 42 bags of Chips Ahoy! cookies were obtained by the students in an introductory statistics class at the United States Air Force Academy in response to the Chips Ahoy! 1,000 Chips Challenge sponsored by Nabisco, the makers of Chips Ahoy!

Create a research hypothesis that would be answered using either a z- or a t- test. I was thinking of doing a study on college students and the amount of articles they read in one year. Include the following: Introduction: Brief description of the study including the purpose and importance of the research question being asked. What is the null hypothesis? What is the research hypothesis? Participants/Sampling Method: Describe your sampling method. What is your sample size? Who is your population of interest? How representative is the sample of the population under study? Data Analysis: Describe the statistical analysis. What is your variable? What is its level of measurement? What is your alpha level? Results & Discussion: Did you reject the null hypothesis? What information did you use to lead you to your conclusion? Was your p value greater than or less than your alpha? NOTE: You can just make up numbers, but include your made-up p value
