A doctor is researching side effects with a new pain medication. A clinical trial including random sample of 340 people who took a new pain relief medication reveals that 23 suffered some side effects. At the .05 level of significance(α), is there evidence that greater than 10% of all patients who take the medication will experience side effects?   a. 0.0468   b. 0.977   c. 0.0234   d. 0.0678

A clinical trial is conducted comparing a new pain reliever for arthritis to a placebo. Participants are randomly assigned to receive the new treatment or a placebo, and the outcome is pain relief within 30 minutes. The data are shown in Table 7–8. Is there a significant difference in the proportions of patients reporting pain relief? Run the test at a 5% level of significance.   new med      44       76 Placebo        21        99

For your study on the food consumption of teenage males, you randomly selected 20 males and ask each how many 12-ounce servings of soda he drinks each day. The results are listed below. At alpha = 0.1, is there enough evidence to support the claim that teenage males drink fewer than five 12-ounce servings of soda per day? The hypothesis test.  3.3, 4.1, 3.5, 2.7, 3.4, 3.3, 4.8, 3.4, 5.2, 3.2, 2.5, 3.8, 5.0, 1.9, 3.9, 5.3, 2.9, 1.8, 4.2, 2.2

Historically, the proportion of students entering a university who finished in 4 years or less was 65%. To test whether this proportion has decreased, 150 students were examined and 58% had finished in 4 years or less. At the 5% level of significance, does it appear the proportion has decreased from its historical level? To determine whether the proportion of students who finish in 4 year or less has statistically significantly decreased, what is the null and alternative hypothesis?

The U.S. Department of Transportation, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, reported that 77% of all fatally injured automobile drivers were intoxicated. A random sample of 52 records of automobile driver fatalities in a certain county showed that 33 involved an intoxicated driver. Do these data indicate that the population proportion of driver fatalities related to alcohol is less than 77% in Kit Carson County? Use ? = 0.05. (a) level of significance: .05 | H0: p = 0.77; H1: p < 0.77 (b) The standard normal, since np > 5 and nq > 5. What is the value of the sample test statistic? (Round your answer to two decimal places.) Find the P-value of the test statistic. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

PM Wed Nov 3 Stats Home Insert Draw View 8). Studies have shown that drivers who use cell phones while operating a motor passenger vehicle increase their risk of an accident. To quantify this risk, the New England Journal of Medicine (January 2, 2014) reported on the risk of a crash (or near crash) for both novice and expert drivers when using a cell phone. In a sample of 371 cases of novices using a cell phone while driving, 24 resulted in a crash (or near crash). In a sample of 1,467 cases of experts using a cell phone while driving. 67 resulted in a crash (or near crash). a). Find a 93% confidence interval for p, the true crash risk (probability) for novice drivers, also indicating the ME value. Answer: ME = b). Find a 93% confidence interval for p, the true crash risk (probability) for expert drivers, also indicating the ME value. Answer: гр, ME =

What is the null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis for the given problem?

According to a certain government agency for a large country, the proportion of fatal traffic accidents in the country in which the driver had a positive blood alcohol concentration (BAC) is 0.38. Suppose a random sample of 105 traffic fatalities in a certain region results in 51 that involved a positive BAC. Does the sample evidence suggest that the region has a higher proportion of traffic fatalities involving a positive BAC than the country at the a = 0.01 level of significance? Because npo (1 - Po 10, the sample size is 5% of the population size, and the sample the requirements for testing the hypothesis satisfied.

To examine the effects of pets and friends in stressful situations, researchers recruited 45 people to participate in an experiment. Fifteen of the subjects were randomly assigned to each of three groups to perform a stressful task alone (control group), with a good friend present, or with their dog present. Each subjects mean heart rate during the task was recorded. Higher heart rates mean more stress. Use an alpha of .05.
