An article claimed that "those with a college degree reported a higher incidence of sunburn than those without a high school degree—45 percent versus 26 percent." For purposes of this exercise, suppose that these percentages were based on random samples of size 200 from each of the two groups of interest (college graduates and those without a high school degree). Is there convincing evidence that the proportion who experience a sunburn is higher for college graduates than it is for those without a high school degree? (Use pcollege graduates − pwithout a high school degree. Round your test statistic to two decimal places and your P-value to four decimal places.) z = P =

You are a medical researcher that wants to determine if your new drug can lower people's blood pressure. You recruit 60 participants with high blood pressure to be part of your study. You randomly assign participants to one of three groups to receive either 10 mg of your drug, 5 mg, or 0 mg (given as a placebo control). After 2 weeks, participants' blood pressure is measured and you compare among the 3 groups. Which statistical test would be best to determine if there is a significant difference in blood pressure among the three groups? one-sample t-test related samples t-test independent samples t-test ANOVA
The type of household for the U.S. population and for a random sample of 409 households from the community of Dove Creek, Montana, are shown (based on Statistical Abstract of the United States) in the table below.

A researcher wants to test the effectiveness of a new drug to treat asthma. One hundred patients with chronic, stable asthma were randomly assigned to one of three groups to receive a placebo (0mg), 1mg of drug, or 5 mg of drug. After treatment, a doctor tested the patient’s forced expiratory volume for 1 second (FEV1). Which statistical test would be best to determine if there is a significant difference between groups?
In order to evaluate the effects of stress on the development of stomach ulcers, three separate groups of monkeys were trained to avoid shock by performing a simple avoidance task, a complex avoidance task or a very complex avoidance task. The more complex the task, the less successful the monkeys were at avoiding electric shock. After several weeks of this, the number of stomach ulcers the monkeys had in each group were counted. Which statistical test should be used to compare ulcers across the three groups? Select one: a. One-way between subjects ANOVA b. One-way repeated measures ANOVA c. Two-way between subjects ANOVA d. None of these options
