Question
Which of the following is NOT true when investigating two population proportions?
Choose the correct answer below.
Testing for equality of two population proportions cannot be done by determining whether there is an overlap between two individual confidence interval estimates of the two individual population proportions.
When testing a claim about two population proportions, the P-value method and the classical method are equivalent.
The P-value method or the classical method of hypothesis testing can be used to test a claim about two population proportions.
A conclusion based on a confidence interval estimate will be the same as a conclusion based on a hypothesis test.

- How do you solve this problem?arrow_forwardThe full question for part B is written down below. (b) The 90% confidence interval is (__,__). It does/does not seem likely that the population mean could be within 8% of the sample mean because 8% off from the sample mean would fall outside/inside the confidence interval. It does not/does seem likely that the population mean could be within 9% of the sample mean because 9% off from the sample mean would fall outside/inside the confidence interval.arrow_forwardSuppose 202 subjects are treated with a drug that is used to treat pain and 50 of them developed nausea. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that more than 20 % of users develop nausea. A.dentify the null and alternative hypotheses for this test. B. Identify the P-value for this hypothesis test. C.Identify the conclusion for this hypothesis test.(reject or fail to reject and why?) D.Does the accuracy rate appear to be acceptable? (is there or is there not sufficent evidance to reject the claim and why?)arrow_forward
- Interpret the 95% confidence interval in context in one sentence. Does your confidence interval capture 0? Answer this question and discuss what that means in relation to a two-sided hypothesis test. Specifically, do these results allow us to infer anything about the claim stated in the problem? Are the results practically significant? Should the company that created Medicine A stand behind their claim of being non-drowsy based on these results? Answer this question in one or two sentences.arrow_forwardIf n=310 and X = 248, to construct a 90% confidence interval, you need to use which one of the following calculator Hypothesis Test for a Population Mean Given Data Two Independent Proportions Comparison One-Way ANOVA Chi-Square Test for Independence Chi-Square Test for Goodness of Fit Two Dependent Sample Means Comparison Given Data Confidence Interval for a Population Mean Given Statistics Hypothesis Test for a Population Mean Given Statistics Confidence Interval for a Population Mean Given Data Two Independent Sample Means Comparison Given Statistics Hypothesis Test for a Population Proportion Two Independent Sample Means Comparison Given Data Confidence Interval for a Population Proportion Enter your answer as an open-interval (i.e., parentheses) using decimals (not percents) accurate to three decimal places.Confidence interval = ---------------.

- A clinical trial tests a method designed to increase the probability of conceiving a girl. In the study 520 babies were born, and 286of them were girls. Use the sample data to construct a 99% confidence interval estimate of the percentage of girls born. Based on the result, does the method appear to be effective? ________________________<p<______________________ does the method appear to be effective?arrow_forwardUse five-step hypothesis testing for each of the following problems. Number each of the five steps. You may use the traditional method or the p-value method. 1) Science fiction novels average 250 pages in length. The average length of 8 randomly chosen novels written by I. M. Wordy was 265 pages in length with a standard deviation of 35. At are Wordy's novels significantly longer than the average science fiction novel? Use five-step hypothesis testing. 2) The average monthly cell phone bill was reported to be $50.07 by the U.S. Wireless Industry.

Give any appropriate equations that may be generated by the analysis.arrow_forwardYou may need to use the appropriate appendix table or technology to answer this question. Recall the method used to obtain a confidence interval for the difference between two population means for matched samples. (a) The following data are from matched samples taken from two populations. Compute the difference value for each element. (Use Population 1 - Population 2.) Population Element 1 Difference 1 11 8 7 8 3 9 6 4 12 13 10 6 15 15 15 14 (b) Compute d. (c) Compute the standard deviation s. (Round your answer to two decimal places.) (d) What is the point estimate of the difference between the two population means? (Use Population 1 - Population 2.)
