Question 19
A confidence interval for a sample is given, followed by several hypotheses to test using that sample. In each case, use the confidence interval to give a conclusion of the test (if possible) and also state the significance level you are using.
A 90% confidence interval for p1-p2: 0.04 to 0.19
(a) H0: p1=p2 vs Ha: p1≠p2
Conclusion:
H0
Significance level:
(b) H0: p1=p2 vs Ha: p1>p2
Conclusion:
H0
Significance level:
(c) H0: p1=p2 vs Ha: p1<p2
Conclusion:

- A new drug to treat high cholesterol is being tested by pharmaceutical company. The cholesterol levels for 27 patients were recorded before administering the drug and after. The 99% confidence interval for the true mean difference in total cholesterol levels (after - before) was (-78.82, -31.18). Which of the following is the appropriate conclusion? Question 4 options: 1) We are 99% confident that the average difference in cholesterol levels is positive, with the higher cholesterol levels being before the drug regimen. 2) We are 99% confident that the average difference in cholesterol levels is positive, with the higher cholesterol levels being after the drug regimen. 3) We are 99% confident that the average difference in cholesterol levels is negative, with the higher cholesterol levels being before the drug regimen. 4) We are 99% confident that the average difference in…arrow_forwardIf n=15, ¯xx¯(x-bar)=39, and s=11, construct a confidence interval at a 95% confidence level.

- Hypotheses for a statistical test are given, followed by several possible confidence intervals for different samples. In each case, use the confidence interval to state a conclusion of the test for that sample and give the significance level used. Hypotheses: Ho :p = 0.7 vs Ha:p + 0.7 (a) 95 % confidence interval for p: 0.55 to 0.85 Conclusion: v Ho Significance level: (b) 95 % confidence interval for p: 0.84 to 0.90 Conclusion: Ho Significance level: (c) 99 % confidence interval for p: 0.66 to 0.82 Conclusion: Но Significance level:arrow_forwardA recent survey of 1030 U.S. adults selected at random showed that 627 consider the occupation of firefighter to have very great prestige. Estimate the probability (to the nearest hundredth) that a U.S. adult selected at random thinks the occupation of firefighter has very great prestige.arrow_forwardStep 2 (b) Which of the two intervals conveys more precise information about the value of the population proportion? Recall that a smaller standard error of results in a narrower confidence interval. A narrower confidence interval is then more precise. The width of Interval 1, (0.27, 0.35), is 0.35 0.27 = and the width of Interval 2, (0.30, 0.34), is 0.34 -0.30 = Submit Skip (you cannot come back) Therefore, --Select--- is the narrower and more precise interval.arrow_forward
