- A study was carried out to evaluate the safety of motorcycle helmets. 40 randomly selected helmets were subiected to a certain impact test and 20 were found to show no damage. The study claimed that the proportion of all helmets that would show no damage when tested in the prescribed manner is smaller than 62.5% (i.e. 5/8).

In a study of a weight loss program, 6 subjects lost an average of 49 lbs. It is found that there is about a 23% chance of getting such results with a diet that has no effect. (... Does the weight loss program have statistical significance? OA. Yes, the program is statistically significant because the results are unlikely to occur by chance. OB. Yes, the program is statistically significant because the results are likely to occur by chance. OC. No, the program is not statistically significant because the results are likely to occur by chance. O D. No, the program is not statistically significant because the results are unlikely to occur by chance. Does the weight loss program have practical significance? O A. No, the program is not practically significant because the amount of weight lost is trivial. O B. Yes, the program is practically…arrow_forwardCan eating a yogurt a day cause people to lose weight?
