A group of scientist believes that their new medicine can heal more than 40% of patients. The current medicine in market can only heal 30% of patients. A research is done to test the hypothesis made by the scientists. The new medicine is given to the 100 patients and it shows that only 26 patients are recovered. Can we accept their hypothesis at a = 0.03? %3D

A bright surgeon claims that she found a new technique that reduces patient mortality in a certain brain tumor removal operation. The surgeon shares the data she and her teammates collected over 5- years using this new method. A total of 10 surgeons have applied this technique and over the course of 5-years their scores of follow-up annual patient mortality counts are Xi : 1, 2, 1, 0,1,2,1,3,0,1 Knowing that the traditional method has an average follow-up annual mortality count of 2, can the surgeon say her technique is superior to the traditional technique? A. Identify the appropriate statistical procedure to apply. B.Conduct the test. Make a decision about the null hypothesis, interpret your results and calculate effect size if applicable. At ??= .05 does the surgeon have a reasonable right to say that her technique is superior to the traditional technique?
A clinician interested in agoraphobia (fear of public places) tests a new treatment method. She samples five agoraphobics from her clinic and has them report how many times they ventured out of their houses (on their own) in the past month. They then received relaxation training and were introduced to trips away from their homes at gradually increasing durations. After 2 months, subjects again reported how many times they ventured (on their own) out of their houses. The data are below. Assess whether there is a significant change in trips outside the home from before to after therapy. a. Report and interpret an effect size b. what type of error might you be making?
A researcher claims that a post-lunch nap decreases the amount of time it takes males to sprint 20 meters after a night with only 4 hours of sleep. The lable snoWS amounts of time (in seconds) it took for 10 males to sprint 20 meters after a night with only 4 hours of sleep when they did not take a post-lunch nap and when they dic take a post-lunch nap. At a = 0.01, is there enough evidence to support the researcher's claim? Assume the samples are random and dependent, and the population is normally distributed.

Cal Poly Pomona found that 15% of its students withdraw without completing Calculus I course. Assume that 30 students registered for the course. Can we use normal approximation method to calculate #3? .
Recent studies have shown that adult men suffer from high blood pressure at a lesser rate than do adult women. To test that claim, a research randomly selected 200 of each gender and tested their blood pressure. The results revealed that 49 of the men and 62 of the women suffered from high blood pressure. Can you conclude that the proportion of men with high blood pressure is less than the proportion of women? Use α = 0.05.
A group of investigators wishes to explore the relationship between the use of hair dyes and the development of breast cancer in females. A group of 100 beauticians 40–49 years of age is identified and followed for five years. After five years, 20 new cases of breast cancer have occurred. Assume that breast cancer incidence over this time period for average American women in this age group is 30/100. We wish to test the hypothesis that using hair dyes decrease the risk of breast cancer. Compute p-value (The answer is Not 0.0021) Please choose answer from these two following multiple choice. a) 0 b) 47.6190
The largest cat in North America is the Jaguar, they can sometimes be seen in the mountains of southern Texas, Arizona and New Mexico, (and less recently southern California). The rate of observances by humans is about 3/20 years. Assume we don't get Trump's border wall which would isolate the US population from the rest, and presumably cut off their chance of breeding. Chances of seeing 5 or more separate Jaguars within 5 years is 0.0011. a. Your cameras also produce pictures of wolf sized canids, either wolves or coy-wolves in the same region (very different times). Each year your cameras catch about 40 of these animals and about 30 cougars and about 400 bear and 800 feral Hogs. Assume that these numbers are all population rates for poisson. Given your camera Network catches a non human large animal (and the above list is all of them): Out of 200 large non human animals what is the probabilty that between 80 and 150 are feral hogs?

An article published in the American Journal of Hypertension reported the results of a longitudinal study on blood pressure. Ten years ago, 51 out of 188 people evaluated were classified as having high blood pressure. This year, 63, out of 194 people evaluated were classified as having high blood pressure. Based on the results of this study, can one conclude that the proportion of people in the population with high blood pressure has increased in the last ten years? Use a = 0.05. I can't find the sign=a I hope someone will know what I am talking about.
One mechanism formed by two identical components of type A, arranged in series, has a reliability of 60% after 1000 hours. A new component B is added in parallel in order to improve the reliability of the device up to 90% after 1000 hours. What should be the reliability of component B after 1000 hours?
An industrial oil heater is tested by its ability to heat up a large room on a cold day and in particular, the rate at which it reaches a desired average temperature. The size of the room and the room temperature prior to switching on the heater were identified as two important factors of the rate at which the average room temperature increases. The experiment was replicated 3 times for each combination. The time (in minutes) till an average temperature increase of 10°C was measured is tabulated below: Factor B Large Classroom (200m2) Large Auditorium (400m2) (1) Treatment Combination (2) Factor A 7°C (1) 8,9,8 22,18,21 12°C (2) 9,10,12 19,29,25 Let factor A be the initial temperature and factor B be size of the room.
