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 0.37. Suppose a random sample of 114 traffic fatalities in a certain region results in 53 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. (Round to one decimal place as needed.)

An epidemiologist found five cases of “big toe cancer” in the Yukon Territory. Because there were only a few cases, the epidemiologist decided to conduct a matched case-control study to determine whether shoe size larger than 9 is a risk factor for big toe cancer. Cases were individually matched to one control for daily activity, history of athlete’s foot, and history of ingrown toenails. The following data were gathered:  Shoe size > 9 Pair Case Control   1     Yes      No   2      No       No   3      No      Yes   4     Yes     Yes   5      No      Yes Compute the proper measure of association. Interpret your results. If you were to investigate a rare cancer in Lynchburg, where might you look for data? What would be necessary legally and ethically to be able to utilize this data set(s)?

Five samples of a ferrous-type substance were used to determine if there is a difference between a laboratory chemical analysis and an X-ray fluorescence analysis of the iron content. Each sample was split into two subsamples and the two types of analysis were applied, with the accompanying results. Assuming that the populations are normal, test at the 0.02 level of significance whether the two methods of analysis give, on the average, the same result. Click here to view the sample analyses.

Let sample 1 be the X-ray fluorescence results and let sample 2 be the laboratory chemical results. State the null and alternative hypotheses. Ho: HD H1: HD + Identify the critical region.

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 0.32. Suppose a random sample of 108 traffic fatalities in a certain region results in 45 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 = 0.05 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. (Round to one decimal place as needed.)
