Question
Consider a drug that is used to help prevent blood clots in certain patients. In clinical trials, among
6267
patients treated with this drug,
168
developed the adverse reaction of nausea. Use a

significance level to test the claim that
3%
of users develop nausea. Does nausea appear to be a problematic adverse reaction?

- Consider a drug that is used to help prevent blood clots in certain patients. In clinical trials, among 6225 patients treated with this drug, 164 developed the adverse reaction of nausea. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that 3% of users develop nausea. Does nausea appear to be a problematic adverse reaction? OC. Ho:p= 0.03 H4:p>0.03 O D. Ho: p#0.03 H:p=0.03 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. Reject Hn. There is sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that 3% of users develop nausea. O B. Reject Ho.

After the turn of the century and the establishment of newer treatments and adjustment in public health advertising, a random sample of 10,000 people exhibits only six deaths due to lung cancer. Test at the 0.05 significance level whether that data are proof of a reduced fatality rate for lung cancer. b. Make the decision rule. (Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) c. Evaluate the test statistic. (Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign. Round your answer to 3 decimal places.)arrow_forward
- Researchers investigate how the presence of cell phones influence the quality of human interaction. Subjects are randomly selected from a population and divided into an experimental group that is asked to leave their phones in the front of the room and a control group that are not asked to leave their cell phones at the front of the room. Subjects are left alone for 10 minutes and then asked to take a survey designed to measure quality of interactions they had with others in the experiment. What statistical test is appropriate?arrow_forwardThe 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?

The Federal Drug Administration (FDA) believes that the manufacturer's claim is too low and decides to test the manufacturer's claim at a 5 %.

- The accompanying data set lists performance IQ scores for random samples of subjects with blood lead levels categorized as low (1), medium (2), and high (3). Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that subjects in those categories have the same median performance IQ score (IQP). Does lead exposure appear to have an adverse effect? Click the icon to view the data for IQ and Lead Exposure First determine the null and alternative hypotheses. Choose the correct answer below. O A.

Six participants agree to take the nutritional supplement. To assess its effect on body weight, weights are measured before starting the supplementation and then after 6 weeks. The data are shown below. Is there a significant increase in body weight following supplementation? Run the test at a 5% level of significance. Demonstrate the five steps for hypothesis testing and explain your results. Subject Initial Weight Weight after 6 Weeks 1 155 157 2 142 145 3 176 180 4 180 175 5 210 209 6 125 126arrow_forwardIndividual actions can play a large role in the overall health of our planet. A researcher interested in evaluating environment friendly behaviors evaluated how often people recycle (per month) based on whether they have an overall optimistic or an overall pessimistic attitude toward eco-friendly behaviors. The results from this hypothetical study are given in the table. Test whether or not recycling behaviors differed between groups using a .05 level of significance. State the value of the test statistics and the decision to retain or reject the null hypothesis. Compute effect size using eta- squared (n^2).

- A dietitian wishes to see if a person's cholesterol level will change if the diet is supplemented by a certain mineral. Seven subjects were pretested and then took the mineral supplement for a six-week period. The results are shown below in the table. Use a paired samples t-chart at a = 0.01 significance level to see difference (Before - After) between the cholesterol levels. State the hypotheses and conclusion. Also, conduct a 99% confidence interval. Subject 1 Before 210 After 190 2 205 170 3 208 210 4 192 188 5 178 173 6 244 228 7 211 198arrow_forwardIn a 2005 study 2205 adolescents aged 12 - 19 years old were give a treadmill test to check their cardiovascular health. 750 of the subjects were determined to have poor cardiovascular fitness. The researchers want to claim that more than 30% of adolescents have poor cardiovascular health (with a 5% level of significance). The research hypothesis is Ha:p>0.30. Find the test statistic, p-value, and state your conclusion.arrow_forwardAccording to a survey conducted by the Association for Dressing and Sauces, 85% of American adults eat salad at least once a week. A nutritionist suspect that the percentage is higher that this. She conducts a survey of 200 American adults an finds that 171 of them eat salad at least once a week. Conduct the appropriate test that addresses the nutritionist's suspicions. Use the a = 0. 1 level of significance. What is the p-value? 0.85 0.855 0.1980 0.4215arrow_forward
