11) In a fishing lodge brochure, the lodge advertises that 75% of its guests catch northern pike over 20 pounds. Suppose that last summer 69 out of a random sample of 84 guests did, in fact, catch northern pike weighing over 20 pounds. Does this indicate that the population proportion of guests who catch pike over 20 pounds is different from 75% (either higher or lower)? Use ? = 0.05. a) What is the level of significance?

Suppose a consumer group suspects that the proportion of households that have threeor more cell phones is 39%. A cell phone company has reason to believe that the proportion isnot 39%. Before they start a big advertising campaign, they conduct a hypothesis test. Theirmarketing people survey 186 households with the result that 93 of the households have three ormore cell phones.

The mayor of a town believes that 32% of the residents favor annexation of a new bridge. A community group believes this is inaccurate and decides to perform a hypothesis test to dispute the mayor's claim. After information is gathered from 160 voters and a hypothesis test is completed, the group fails to reject the null hypothesis at the 0.01 level. What is the conclusion regarding the mayor's claim?
Suppose that in a random selection of 100100 colored candies, 2323% of them are blue. The candy company claims that the percentage of blue candies is equal to 2525%. Use a 0.100.10 significance level to test that claim.
A random sample of 845 births included 435 boys. Use a 0.10 significance level to test the claim that 50.5% of newborn babies are boys.

4. Chantix (varenicline) tablets are used as an aid to help people stop smoking. In a clinical trial, 129 subjects were treated with Chantix twice a day for 12 weeks, and 16 subjects experienced abdominal pain (based on data from Pfizer, Inc.)If someone claims that more than 8% of Chantix users experience abdominal pain, that claim is supported with a hypothesis test conducted with a 0.05 significance level. Using 0.18 as an alternative value of P, the power of the test is 0.96. Interpret this value of the power of the test.
A university has decided to introduce the use of plus and minus grading as long as there is evidence that 60% of the faculty is in support of this change. Write an appropriate null hypothesis and alternate hypothesis to test if the proportion is greater than 60%.
A researcher looking for evidence of extrasensory perception (ESP) tests 1000 subjects. Forty-three of these subjects do significantly better (P < 0.05) than random guessing. Forty-three seems like a lot of people, but you cannot conclude that these 43 people have ESP. Why not? The statistical significance level is not be stringent enough to conclude an ESP status. Since the tests were performed at the 5% significance level, as many as 50 subjects may have done significantly better than random guessing just by chance. The sample size was not large enough for any statistical inference. The P-value needs to be below 0.025 to be considered statistically significant given the two-tailed nature of this type of test.
In a certain school district, it was observed that 29% of the students in the element schools were classified as only children (no siblings). However, in the special program for talented and gifted children, 130 out of 373 students are only children.

Test at the a = 0.05 level of significance. What is the hypothesized population proportion for this test? P =0.34 (Report answer as a decimal accurate to 2 decimal places.

12) A professor wanted to compare the ages of male and female graduate students at her university. She collected a random sample of male and a random sample of female students in Spring 2022 semester. Data (in years) are given below.

The drug Ritalin is designed to stimulate the central nervous system. In a random sample of 252 boys aged ten – twelve years old, it was found that 44 of the boys were taking Ritalin. It is known that the proportion of all boys aged 13 – 15 who take Ritalin is 24%. A researcher claims that the population proportions of boys who take Ritalin aged 10 – 12 is different than boys aged 13 – 15. Can you support this claim at the 5% significance level? a. Conduct a hypothesis test to test the claim at the 5% significance level. Be sure to state you Ho and Ha, your test statistic and p-value, whether or not you reject Ho and whether you support the claim. b. Show that you can use the large sample methodology. c. Write a complete sentence describing what a Type I error is in context.
Suppose that, in a comparison of two holiday companies’ customers, of the 75 who went with Happy Days Tours, 45 said they were satisfied, while 48 of the 90 who went with Fly by Night Holidays were satisfied. Test at a 2.5% significance level whether there is a difference in the true proportion of satisfied customers for the two companies?
