Rhino viruses typically cause common colds. In a test of the effectiveness of​ echinacea, 33 of the 38 subjects treated with echinacea developed rhinovirus infections. In a placebo​ group, 101 of the 114 subjects developed rhinovirus infections. Use a0.05 significance level to test the claim that echinacea has an effect on rhinovirus infections. Complete parts​ (a) through​ (c) below. a. Test the claim using a hypothesis test.   Consider the first sample to be the sample of subjects treated with echinacea and the second sample to be the sample of subjects treated with a placebo. What are the null and alternative hypotheses for the hypothesis​ test? A. H0​: p1=p2 H1​: p1>p2   B. H0​: p1≤p2 H1​: p1≠p2   C. H0​: p1=p2 H1​: p1

Only 10% of registered voters voted in the last election. Will voter participation increase for the upcoming election? Of the 399 randomly selected registered voters surveyed, 52 of them will vote in the upcoming election. What can be concluded at the a = 0.01 level of significance? a. For this study, we should use Select an answer

A small pilot study is conducted to investigate the effect of a nutritional supplement on total body weight. Six participants agree to take the nutritional supplement.  To assess its effect on body weight, weights are measured before starting the supplementation and then after 6 weeks.  The data are shown below.  Is there a significant increase in body weight following supplementation?  Run the test at a 5% level of significance. Demonstrate the five steps for hypothesis testing and explain your results.   Subject Initial Weight Weight after 6 Weeks 1 155 157 2 142 145 3 176 180 4 180 175 5 210 209 6 125 126

The director of student services at Oxnard College is interested in whether women are just as likely to attend orientation as men before they begin their coursework. A random sample of freshmen at Oxnard College were asked what their gender is and whether they attended orientation. The results of the survey are shown below: Data for Gender vs. Orientation Attendance Women Men Yes 440 410 No 238 239 What can be conduded at the a - 0.10 level of significance? For this study, we should use z-test for a population proportion a. The null and alternative hypotheses would be: Ho: Select an answer v Select an answer v Select an answer v (please enter a decimal and note that p1 and ul represent the proportion and mean women and and u2 represent proportion and mean for men.) H: Select an answer v Select an answer v Select an answer v (Please enter a decimal) b. The test statistic ? v (please show your answer to 3 decimal places.) c. The p-value = (Please show your answer to 4 decimal places.) d.…

Below indicate whether the appropriate test would be an independent t-test, dependent t-test, One-way ANOVA, or z-test. A researcher wants to know if people find baby animals cuter than adult animals. All of the participants in a study are shown 10 pictures of baby animals and 10 pictures of adult animals. They are asked to rate (on a 1 to 10 scale) how cute they think each animal is.

A  simple random sample of size n = 200 drivers with a valid driver's license is asked if they drive an American-made automobile. Of the 200 drivers surveyed, 118 responded that they drive an American-made automobile. Determine if a majority of those with a valid driver's license drive an American-made automobile at the a = 0.05 level of significance. .....                                                                                                                                          What type of variable is "drive an American-made automobile, or not"?                                                                      A.

State the hypotheses for each of the three separate tests included in the two-factor ANOVA.

Many people take ginkgo supplements advertised to improve memory. Are these over-thecounter supplements effective? In a study, elderly adults were assigned to the treatment group or control group. The 104 participants who were assigned to the treatment group took 40 mg of ginkgo 3 times a day for 6 weeks. The 115 participants assigned to the control group took a placebo pill 3 times a day for 6 weeks. At the end of 6 weeks, the Wechsler Memory Scale was administered. Higher scores indicate better memory function. Summary values are given in thefollowing table:                N               x              sGinkgo 104           5.7         0.6Placebo 115         5.5          0.5a) Based on these results, is there evidence that taking 40mg of ginkgo 3 times a day is effective in increasing mean performance on the Wechsler Memory Scale? b) Write a brief report on your findings

Create a research hypothesis that would be answered using either a z- or a t- test. I was thinking of doing a study on college students and the amount of articles they read in one year. Include the following: Introduction: Brief description of the study including the purpose and importance of the research question being asked. What is the null hypothesis? What is the research hypothesis? Participants/Sampling Method: Describe your sampling method. What is your sample size? Who is your population of interest? How representative is the sample of the population under study? Data Analysis: Describe the statistical analysis. What is your variable? What is its level of measurement? What is your alpha level? Results & Discussion: Did you reject the null hypothesis? What information did you use to lead you to your conclusion? Was your p value greater than or less than your alpha? NOTE: You can just make up numbers, but include your made-up p value
