- Winning team data were collected for teams in different sports, with the results given in the accompanying table. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that home/visitor wins are independent of the sport. Given that among the four sports included here, baseball is the only sport in which the home team can modify field dimensions to favor its own players, does it appear that baseball teams are effective in using this advantage?

After performing a test at the 0.02 level of significance, the advertiser failed to reject the null hypothesis. What is the conclusion regarding the publisher's claim? (Choose A or B) A. There is sufficient evidence at the 0.02 level of significance that the percentage is over 47%. B. There is not sufficient evidence at the 0.02 level of significance to say that the percentage is over 47%.arrow_forwardMitchell works in the produce section at a small local supermarket and would like to test whether the proportion of apples people purchase is the same for each season, using a significance level of 0.05.

- The table below includes results from polygraph (lie detector) experiments conducted by researchers. In each case, it was known if the subjected lied or did not lie, so the table indicates when the polygraph test was correct. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that whether a subject lies is independent of the polygraph test indication. Do the results suggest that polygraphs are effective in distinguishing between truth and lies? No(did not lie) Yes(lied) Polygraph test indicated that the subject lied. 14 47 Polygraph test indicated that the subject did not lie. 9 12 Determine the test statistic.
