The mayor of a town has proposed a plan for construction of a new bridge. A political study took a sample of 900 voters in the town and found that 48% of the residents favored construction. Using the data, a political strategist wants to test the claim that the percentage of residents who favor construction is more than 44%. Make the decision to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis at the 0.02 level. Is it Reject Null Hypothesis or Fail to Reject Null Hypothesis?
A researcher is conducting a study to examine the effects of cognitive behavior therapy for the treatment of social anxiety in a sample of 16 participants. He measures the social anxiety scores of participants before the treatment and then again after treatment and the resulting data is as follows: n = 16, M, = 5, s = 4 (a) What type of design is this study (single-sample, independent measures, repeated measures) (b) State the null and alternate hypotheses (c) Using an alpha level of .05 (a = .05), identify the critical values of t for a 2-tailed test
It is known that one in ten consumers favor a certain brand of potato chips. After a promotional campaign in a particular sales region, a random sample of 200 people were interviewed to study the effect of this campaign. (a) Derive the test to compare the null hypothesis that the campaign had no effect on people's opinion of this brand of potato chips against the alternative hypothesis that there was an increase in the favorability of this brand of chips. (b) Using the test you obtained in part (a), what conclusions do you draw if 26 of those interviewed favored that particular brand of chips.
A university offers a certain course that students can take in-person or in an online setting. Teachers of the course were curious if there was a difference in the passing rate between two settings. The teachers selected random samples of 200 students who take the course in-person and 300 students who take the course online for the hypothesis testing. From these two independent samples, 80% of the students passed the in-person setting and 75% of students passed the online setting. They were willing to treat these as representative samples ofall students who may take each setting of the course. (a) Test whether there is a difference in the passing rate between two course settings at 4% significant level. (b) Find the p-value of the test and does it lead to the same conclusion in (a)? (c) Find the 96% confidence interval to estimate the difference between the proportion of students who pass in each setting of the course (Pin-p 'in-person – Ponline).
A private and a public university are located in the same city. For the private university, 1043 alumni were surveyed and 654 said that they attended at least one class reunion. For the public university, 809 out of 1324 sampled alumni claimed they have attended at least one class reunion. Is the difference in the sample proportions statistically significant? (Use α=0.05) a) Reject the null hypothesis which states there is no difference in the proportion of alumni that attended at least one class reunion in favor of the alternate which states there is a difference in the proportions. b) Fail to reject the null hypothesis. There is not enough evidence to conclude that there is a difference in the proportions. c) There is not enough information to make a conclusion.
A researcher is considering two different studies of a new cancer therapy. One of the studies would be relatively underpowered. This underpowered study is more likely to accept the null hypothesis make a type-II error none of these reject the null hypothesis make a type-I error
A researcher believes that the percentage of people who exercise in California is greater than the national exercise rate. The national exercise rate is 20%. The researcher gathers a random sample of 120 individuals who live in California and finds that the number who exercise regularly is 31 out of 120. Please use the chi-square test to design a complete hypothesis testing process and get appropriate conclusions. (You need to indicate the value of X2obt and df and X2cv)

A private and a public university are located in the same city. For the private university, 1046 alumni were surveyed and 653 said that they attended at least one class reunion. For the public university, 791 out of 1327 sampled alumni claimed they have attended at least one class reunion. Is the difference in the sample proportions statistically significant at the 1% level?

What does the null hypothesis assume for two independent sample t test?
A group of 250 patients was randomly split into two groups of 125 patients. The first group of 125 patients was given treatment A, and 72 of them improved their condition. The second group of 125 patients was given treatment B, and 60 of them improved their condition. Perform a hypothesis test to investigate whether there is evidence of a difference between the two treatments. What is the p-value of the test?
