Forbes reports that women in general trust recommendations from Pinterest more than recommendations from any other social network platform. But does trust in Pinterest differ by gender? The following sample data show the number of women and men who state in a recent survey that they trust recommendations made on Pinterest. Sample Trust recommendations made on Pinterest Women 150 117 Men 170 102 We want to determine whether trust in Pinterest differ by gender. Formulate the null and the alternative hypotheses. Use 1 to represent women and 2 to represent men. H0: Ha: Null: p1 – p2 ≥ 0; Alternative: p1 – p2 < 0 Null: p1 – p2 = 0 ; Alternative: p1 – p2 ≠ 0 Null: p1 – p2 ≤ 0; Alternative: p1 – p2 > 0 B. What the test statistics? You probably need to find the pooled proportion first. Pooled proportion is ___________. 0.6 0.78 0.6844 C. Test statistic is ________. 3.46 1.28 66.41 4.36
a. set up appropriate null and alternative hypotheses of the test b. choose an appropriate test statistic and use the data to find the p-value

Suppose your null hypothesis is that engineering majors earn more than $80,000. Further, researchers collect and analyze sample data that leads them to fail to reject this null hypothesis. However, in the population, it is true that engineering majors earn less than $80,000. What would we call this error? a. Type I error b. Type II error c. No error occured d. Error equal to the level of significance
A formula that provides the evidence against a null hypothesis is called: A. Test-statistic B. Population statistic C. Both a and b D. Neither a or b
Researchers conducted an experiment to test the effects of alcohol. Errors were recorded in a test of visual and motor skills for a treatment group of 23 people who drank ethanol and another group of 23 people given a placebo. The errors for the treatment group have a standard deviation of 2.40, and the errors for the placebo group have a standard deviation of 0.78. Assume that the two populations are normally distributed. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that both groups have the same amount of variation among the errors. Let sample 1 be the sample with the larger sample variance, and let sample 2 be the sample with the smaller sample variance. What are the null and alternative hypotheses? OA. H₂:0² = 0²/2 OB.

Use technology to identify the P-value. (Round to three decimal places as needed.)
Use 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. Random Sampling of a large cell phone company found the following monthly cell phone charges (in dollars): At the 0.01 level of significance, can it be concluded that the average phone bill has…
As such, the final conclusion is that... There is sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the first population mean is less than the second population mean. There is not sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the first population mean is less than the second population mean. The sample data support the claim that the first population mean is less than the second population mean. There is not sufficient sample evidence to support the claim that the first population mean is less than the second population mean.
The hypothesis testing procedures for comparing means of INDEPENDENT samples would be appropriate for comparing Question 3 options: IQ scores of children attending a public elementary school as they progress from grade to grade. husbands’ and wives’ attitudes toward higher education. male and female problem solving skills (number of moves toward the correct solution) on a spatial puzzle task. software “usefulness” ratings by users who try both Software A and Software B
You wish to test the following claim (H) at a significance level of a = 0.10. Ho: 1 = 2 Ha: 1 2 You believe both populations are normally distributed, but you do not know the standard deviations for either. However, DON'T assume that the variances of the two populations are equal. You obtain a sample of size n₁ = 14 with a mean of ₁ = 63.8 and a standard deviation of SD₁ = 14.8 from the first population. You obtain a sample of size n₂ = 26 with a mean of 2 = 58.6 and a standard deviation of SD2 = 9.2 from the second population. What is the test statistic for this sample?
