In a survey, 37% of the respondents stated that they talk to their pets on the telephone. A veterinarian believed this result to be too high, so he randomly selected 200 pet owners and discovered that 73 of them spoke to their pet on the telephone. Does the veterinarian have a right to be skeptical? Use the a = 0.1 level of significance. Because npo (1- Po) = 46.6 > 10, the sample size is less than 5% of the population size, and the sample is given to be random, the requirements for testing the hypothesis are satisfied. (Round to one decimal place as needed.) What are the null and alternative hypotheses? Ho: (Type integers or decimals. Do not round.) versus H,:

A study was conducted to determine the proportion of people who dream in black and white instead of color. Among 309 people over the age of​ 55, 68 dream in black and​ white, and among 295 people under the age of​ 25, 15 dream in black and white. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the proportion of people over 55 who dream in black and white is greater than the proportion for those under 25.    identify the test statistic? identify the p value ? 98% confidenc interaval? reject or not to reject and why?

Past studies have indicated that the percentage of smokers was estimated to be about 30%. Given the new smoking cessation programs that have been implemented, you now believe that the percentage of smokers has reduced. You randomly surveyed 2414 people and found that 680 smoke. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the percentage of smokers has reduced. a) Identify the null and alternative hypotheses? Hp: ? v H:? v b) What type of hypothesis test should you conduct (left-, right-, or two-tailed)? O left-tailed O right-tailed O two-tailed c) Identify the appropriate significance level.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that the official unemployment rate for Black people was 10.4% and 4.7% for White people in February 2015. Select all correct answers for this question. O The samples of white and black people are independent. The explanatory variable is the unemployment rate. The response variable is the unemployment rate. The response variable is race.

Previously, an organization reported that teenagers spend 12.5 hours per week, on average, on the phone. The organization thinks that, currently, the mean is lower. Twenty-three randomly chosen teenagers were asked how many hours per week they spend on the phone, with the following results (in hours): 10.4, 10.4, 17.3, 11.2, 10, 15.2, 9.5, 5.8, 12.5, 11.8, 7.3, 10.6, 11.5, 16.2, 16.5, 14.3, 12.3, 9.9, 13.7, 8.6, 11.3, 13, 16.5 Perform a hypothesis test using a 10% level of significance. Step 1: State the null and alternative hypotheses. Ho: pv 12.5 12.5 (So we will be performing a left-tailed Vv test.) Step 2: Assuming the null hypothesis is true, determine the features of the distribution of point estimates using the Central Limit Theorem. By the Central Limit Theorem, we know that the point estimates are t-distributed with distribution mean and distribution standard deviation Step 3: Find the p-value of the point estimate. = P(tv sv p-value = Step 4: Make a Conclusion About the nulI…
