- The Gallup Poll asked 1015 U.S. adults whether they believed that people should pay sales tax on items purchased over the internet. Of these, 477 said they supported such a tax. Does the survey provide convincing evidence that less than 42% of U.S. adults favor an internet sales tax? Use the 0.05 level of significance. 1. STATE THE NULL AND ALTERNATIVE HYPOTHESIS: 2.

- Reject or Fail to Reject the null hypothesis. There is or is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that those treated with magnets have a greater mean reduction in pain than those given a sham treatment.arrow_forwardTest the claim that the proportion of people who own cats is significantly different than 20% at the 0.1 significance level.

The physical therapist states the proportion of adults that receive a physical therapy treatment plan due to sciatica is less than 0.30. If we would like to test the physical therapist's claim with a hypothesis test using a significance level of α=0.10 , which of the following choices are true? Select the correct answer below: There is a 10% chance we will conclude p=0.30, but is in fact p<0.30. There is a 10% chance of rejecting the null hypothesis. There is a 10% chance we will conclude p<0.30, but is in fact p=0.30. There is a 10% chance that p<0.30arrow_forward
- hopes that the results of a trial period will enable her to conclude with a level of significance of 0.05 that the new procedure increases the average profit of installing a carpet. What will be the consequences if she makes a Type I error on her hypothesis test? A Type I error would mean that Carpetland implements a new procedure that actually decreases profits. A Type I error would mean that Carpetland implements a new procedure that actually increases profits. A Type 1 error would mean that Carpetland does not implement a new procedure that increases profits. A Type I error would mean that Carpetland does not implement a new procedure that decreases profits.. A Type I error would mean that Carpetland implements a new procedure that actually does not increase profits.

A .Setup the null and alternative hypotheses to see if there is a significant change in the market share of the game. B. Determine if you can use a normal model to approximate the distribution of sample proportions. C. Find the critical value for a level of significance of 0.03. D. Find the standardized test statistic. E. State the conclusion of the hypothesis test.arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is true regarding the influence of a small alpha level in the context of hypothesis testing? a. A small alpha level reduces the likelihood of a Type I error. b. A small alpha level reduces the effect size. c. A small alpha level increases statistical power. d. A small alpha level increases the likelihood of detecting statistical significance.arrow_forwardLooking at youth depression scores from a general sample of random children in the US, we want to determine if our sample is significantly different than the national average of scores of children with depression in the US. The national average of scores on a measure of depression is 5 points. We have no reason to assume it will be higher or lower than the US national average. The sample: 11 9 12 3 3 4 13 1.
