Transcribed Image Text:Listed in the accompanying table are numbers of hospital admissions in one region due to traffic
accidents on different Fridays falling on the 6th day of a month and the following 13th day of the month.
Assume that we want to use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the data support the claim that
the same number of hospital admissions due to traffic accidents occur on Friday the 6th than on the
following Friday the 13th. Identify the null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis.
Let the differences be the accidents on the 6th minus the accidents on the 13th.
The null hypothesis is Ho: Hd ▼

A researcher believes that the proportion of college students who watch TV nightly is less than this. To test this claim the research samples 400 college students and finds that 276 watch TV nightly. At the 0.05 level of significance does this data provide evidence to suggest that the proportion of college students who watch TV nightly is less than 70%?

- A political scientist claims that 38% of first-year college students characterize themselves as being “moderate” or “middle of the road” as far as their political affiliation is concerned. Believing this claimed value is too high, you survey a random sample of 400 first-year college students and find that 120 characterize themselves as being “moderate” or “middle of the road.” Based on this information, what will the test statistic be? Choose the answer below that is closest to what you calculate, and try not to do a lot of rounding until you get to the very end of your calculations. 1. -0.3 2. -1.2 3. -2.6 4. -3.3 5. None of the other answer options are correct because the test statistic should be positive, not negative.arrow_forwardSuppose 230 subjects are treated with a drug that is used to treat pain and 52 of them developed nausea.
