- Previously, 4% of mothers smoked more than 21 cigarettes during their pregnancy. An obstetrician believes that the percentage of mothers who smoke 21 cigarettes or more is less than 4% today. She randomly selects 115 pregnant mothers and finds that 3 of them smoked 21 or more cigarettes during pregnancy. Test the researcher's statement at the α=0.1 level of significance. find p valuearrow_forwardIn 2022, the CDC reported that 12.5% of U.S. adults currently smoke cigarettes. From the same report, a random sample of 12,405 Ohioans was taken with 2543 being current smokers. Using α = 0.05, test whether the proportion of Ohioans that smoke cigarettes is different than the proportion of U.S. adultsarrow_forwardIn an early home game, an NBA team made 66 of their 100 free throw attempts. In one of theirlast home games, the team made 68 of 90 attempts. At α = .10, did the team significantlyimprove its free throw percentage (left-tailed test)?arrow_forward

At α=0.10, can you reject the claim that the proportion of occupants who wear seatbelts is the same for the passenger cars and pickup trucks?arrow_forwardA researcher was interested whether an individual's preference in political party affiliation was influenced by their level of education and gender. A random sample of participants were recruited, and preferences were scored from 0 - 10 (0 meaning no preference, 10 meaning greater preference). The researcher then divided participants by gender (1 = male/2 = female) and then again by level of education (1 = some school/2 = college/3 = university). Assume alpha at 0.05.

- A youtuber is interested about the participation of its viewers in the games they watch him play on his channel. The youtuber wants to compare the views he gets from them watching fortnight vs the views he gets from them watching the game Among Us. Use the data given and show in an Excel work sheet to test at an α=0.01 level that there is a difference in the proportion in the number of views he gets from fortnight compared to the views from Among Us. Fortnight Among Us Total Viewers 35 23 58 Non-Viewers 69 53 122 Total 104 76 180 What is the Null and alternative hypothesis? what would be the Point estimate? P-value? Decision?

With the airbag system's new modified design, the team expected to reduce the failed proportion to be below last year's proportion of 0.08. They decided to test HO: p = 0.08 versus Ha: p < 0.08, where p = the proportion of failed airbags during crash tests. If 300 crashes performed in the lab resulted in 18 failures, which of the following is the test statistic for this test?arrow_forwardA sample of 323 urban adult residents of a particular state revealed 65 who favored increasing the highway speed limit from 55 to 65 mph, whereas a sample of 177 rural residents yielded 75 who favored the increase. Does this data indicate that the sentiment for increasing the speed limit is different for the two groups of residents? (a) Test H0: p1 − p2 = 0 versus Ha: p1 − p2 ≠ 0 using ? = 0.05, where p1 refers to the urban population. (Round your test statistic to two decimal places and your P-value to four decimal places.) z = P-value = State the conclusion in the problem context. Fail to reject H0. The data suggests that the sentiment for increasing the speed limit is different for the two groups of residents.Reject H0.
