Question
Which situtaion below violates an assumption for conducting hypothesis tests using the t statistic?
Group of answer choices
Two observations in a sample are independent from one another.
The population from which a small sample (n < 30) is obtained for a hypothesis test is normally distributed.
The population from which a large sample (n > 30) is obtained for a hypothesis test is not normally distributed.
None of these situations violates an assumption for conducting hypothesis tests using the t statistic.

Of interest is to test this claim versus the alternative that the proportion of all people who went trick-or-treating who also had a pumpkin carved into a jack-o'-lantern at their home is less than 0.62. A simple random sample of 270 people who went trick-or-treating is selected, and 162 of them also had a pumpkin carved into a jack-o'-lantern at their home (and the other 108 did not). If appropriate, use this information to test if the proportion of all people who went trick-or-treating who also had a pumpkin carved into a jack-o'-lantern at their home is less than 0.62 at the a = .10 level of significance.

- K Two different simple random samples are drawn from two different populations. The first sample consists of 20 people with 11 having a common attribute. The second sample consists of 1900 people with 1353 of them having the same common attribute. Compare the results from a hypothesis test of p₁ = P₂ (with a 0.01 significance level) and a 99% confidence interval estimate of P₁-P₂- What is the conclusion based on the hypothesis test? The test statistic is the critical region, so The 99% confidence interval is < (P₁-P₂) < (Round to three decimal places as needed.) What is the conclusion based on the confidence interval? Since 0 is the null hypothesis. How do the results from the hypothesis test and the confidence interval compare? The results are since the hypothesis test suggests that p₁ the null hypothesis. There is in the interval, it indicates to evidence to conclude that p₁ # P₂.
