- In a certain right-sided test with large amples, the z-statistic of the sample is obtained to be 2.3. If the Type error is assumed to be 5%, should we reject the null hypothesis?arrow_forwardFor a repeated measures study comparing two treatments with a sample of n=16 participants, a researcher obtains a sample mean difference of MD = 3.3 with SS = 315 for the difference scores. Calculate the repeated-measures t statistic for these data using a two-tailed test, and determine if it is enough to reject the null hypothesis. For this test use a=.01.arrow_forwardA researcher is conducting an experiment to evaluate the effectiveness of cognitive-behavioral therapy in treating eating disorders. The mean eating disorder score in clinical population of people suffering from the disorder is μ = 75. The results of the experiment will be examined by a z -test, two-tails. Which of the following is the correct statement of the alternative hypothesis, H1?A. μ = 75 (i.e., the treatment has a significant effect).B. μ ≠ 75 (i.e., the treatment has no significant effect).C. μ ≠ 75 (i.e., the treatment has a significant effect).D. μ = 75 (i.e., the treatment has no significant effect).arrow_forward
- A hospital reported that the normal death rate for patients with extensive burns (more than 40% of skin area) has been significantly reduced by the use of new fluid plasma compresses. Before the new treatment, the mortality rate for extensive burn patients was about 60%. Using the new compresses, the hospital found that only 42 of 89 patients with extensive burns died. Use a 1% level of significance to test the claim that the mortality rate has dropped. (a) What is the level of significance? What is the value of the sample test statistic? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)arrow_forwardPreviously, 11.2% of workers had a travel time to work of more than 60 minutes. An urban economist believes that the percentage has increased since then. She randomly selects 85 workers and finds that 11 of them have a travel time to work that is more than 60 minutes . Test the economist's belief at the a= 0.1 level of significance What are the null and alternative hypotheses? what are the null and alternative hypotheses? Because np0(1-p0)= < ? 10, Find the P-value.arrow_forwardA researcher goes to a local park to see how many people are wearing face masks. She counts 37 women in the park, of whom 24 are wearing face masks, while 14 out of 30 men are wearing face masks. Can she say that there is a significant difference of the percent of each gender who wears masks?

- In one study of smokers who tried to quit smoking with nicotine patch therapy, 35 were smoking one year after treatment and 30 were not smoking one year after the treatment. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that among smokers who try to quit with nicotine patch therapy, the majority are smoking one year after the treatment. Do these results suggest that the nicotine patch therapy is not effective? H1: p0.5 H:p= 0.5 Identify the test statistic for this hypothesis test. The test statistic for this hypothesis test is. (Round to two decimal places as needed.) Identify the P-value for this hypothesis test. The P-value for this hypothesis test is. (Round to three decimal places as needed.) Identify the conclusion for this hypothesis test. O A. Fail to reject Ho. There insufficient evidence to warrant support of the claim that the majority are smoking one year after the treatment. O B. Reject Ho. There sufficient evidence to warrant support of the claim that the majority are…arrow_forwardPreviously, 3% of mothers smoked more than 21 cigarettes during their pregnancy. An obstetrician believes that the percentage of mothers who smoke 21 cigarettes or more is less than 3% today. She randomly selects 145 pregnant mothers and finds that 3 of them smoked 21 or more cigarettes during pregnancy. Test the researcher's statement at the a = 0.1 level of significance. What are the null and alternative hypotheses? Họ: P = 0.03 versus H4: p < 0.03 (Type integers or decimals. Do not round.) Because npo (1- Po) =|| 10, the normal model V be used to approximate the P-value. (Round to one decimal place as needed.)arrow_forwardBuilding codes in southern Florida require hurricane straps on single-family dwellings in order to more securely anchor the roof to the buildings. The straps should have no more than a 10% chance of failure in 150mph wind, and no more than a 45% chance of failure in a 200mph wind. 164 straps are tested at 200mph, and 48 of them fail. (a) Perform a hypothesis test to evaluate the claim that the straps are performing to code to an a = 0.01 (b) Provide the p – value for your test statistic determined in (a) (c) If you wished to construct a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion with half-width E = 0.01, approximately how many straps would you need to test?arrow_forward
