Hoaglin, Mosteller, and Tukey (1983) presented data on blood levels of beta-endorphin as a function of stress. They took beta-endorphin levels for 19 patients 12 hours before surgery and again 10 minutes before surgery. The data are presented below, in fmol/ml Construct a 95% confidence limits on the true mean difference between endorphin levels at the two times described.

Spam: A researcher reported that 71.8 % of all email sent in a recent month was spam. A system manager at a large corporation believes that the percentage at his company may be 69%. He examines a random sample of 500 emails received at an email server, and finds that 365 of the messages are spam. Can you conclude that greater than 69% of emails are spam? Use both a=0.01 and a= 0.05 levels of significance and the critical value method with the table. Part 1 of 5 State the appropriate null and alternate hypotheses. Ho: P- .69 H1: p> .69 This hypothesis test is a right-tailed V test. Part 2 of 5 Find the critical values. Round the answers to three decimal places. For a=0.01 , the critical value is 2.326 For a=0.05 , the critical value is 1.645 Part: 2/5 Part 3 of 5 Compute the test statistic. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round the answer to two decimal places.
Construct a confidence interval for p1−p2 at the given level of confidence. x1=368, n1=523, x2=441, n2=593, 95% confidence The researchers are nothing% confident the difference between the two population proportions, p1−p2, is between nothing and nothing.

Researchers subjected laboratory gloves to stress. Among 255 vinyl gloves 176 leaked viruses. Among 255 latex gloves 36 leaked viruses. Construct a 95% Confidence Interval for the difference of the proportion of all vinyl gloves that will leak viruses and the proportion of all latex gloves that will leak viruses. Let vinyl gloves be Sample 1. A (0.2770, 0.3230) B (0.4780, 0.6201) C (-0.3450, -0.2550) D (0.2460, 0.3540)
A random sample of high school seniors were asked whether they were applying for college. The resulting confidence interval for the proportion of students applying for college is (0.65,0.69). What is the margin of error?
Stanford University conducted a study of whether running is healthy for men and women over age 50. During the first eight years of the study, 1.5% of the 451 members of the 50-plus Fitness Association died. We are interested in the proportion of people over 5o who ran and died in the same eight-year period. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of people over 50 who ran and died in the same eight-year period. Explain in a complete sentence what the confidence interval means
In a random sample of 1250 adult drivers, 450 said that they would cut their driving by 10% if this significantly helped the environment.

A clinical trial is run to investigate the effectiveness of an experimental drug in reducing preterm delivery to a drug considered standard care and to a placebo. Pregnant women are enrolled and randomly assigned to receive either the experimental drug, the standard drug or a placebo. Women are followed through delivery and classified as delivering preterm (< 37 weeks) or not. The data are shown below. Preterm Delivery Experimental Drug Standard Drug Placebo Yes 15 23 40 No 83 79 67 Is there a statistically significant difference in the proportions of women delivering preterm among the three treatment groups? Run the test at a 5% level of significance.
