Question
You are conducting a study to see if the probability of catching the flu this year is significantly less than 0.26. You use a significance level of α=0.10α=0.10.
H0:p=0.26H0:p=0.26
H1:p<0.26H1:p<0.26
You obtain a sample of size n=132n=132 in which there are 21 successes.
What is the test statistic for this sample? (Report answer accurate to three decimal places.)
test statistic =

- Acne is a common skin disease that affects most adolescents and can continue into adulthood. A study compared the effectiveness of three acne treatments and a placebo, all in gel form, applied twice daily for 12 weeks. The study's 517 teenage volunteers were randomly assigned to one of the four treatments. Success was assessed as clear or almost clear skin at the end of the 12 week period. The results of the study can be seen in the table below. Using the appropriate statistical test, determine if there is significant evidence that the four treatments perform differently. If so, how do they compare.arrow_forwardYou want to see if a card dealer is favoring one suit over another.
