Question
A random sample of 154 recent donations at a certain blood bank reveals that 86 were type A blood. Does this suggest that the actual percentage of type A donations differs from 40%, the percentage of the population having type A blood? Carry out a test of the appropriate hypotheses using a significance level of 0.01.
(b) Calculate the test statistic and determine the P-value. (Round your test statistic to two decimal places and your P-value to four decimal places.)

Colby was in his most recent class, and his class’s mean score on the final exam was 82%. Colby decided to run a hypothesis test to determine if the mean score of his class was significantly greater than the mean score of the population. α = .01. What is the mean score of the population? What is the mean score of the sample? Is this test one-tailed or two-tailed? Why?arrow_forward

- A psychologist examines retention of a learned task in monkeys. At 90 days 5 monkeys are trained on a discrimination task. Then their performance is tested again at 4 months, 6 months, and 1 year. A partial ANOVA summary table follows. The data were analyzed using a repeated-measures ANOVA. Answer the following: Describe the null and alternative hypotheses. Then complete the source table.

Based on that reported p-value, and using the common definition of "statistical significance," which is the case? With that p value, the results are not significant. With that p value, the differences are very close, but not statistically significant. The salary differences are not statistically significant. The salary differences are statistically significant.arrow_forward
