QUESTION 6A local clinic is using a new testing kit to test whether a person got COVID-19. Two hypotheses are developed:H0: This person did not get COVID-19.Ha: This person got COVID-19.Use the hypothesese above to explain the Type I error that the clinic may make.

Each hypothesis statement consist of two statements, they are null hypothesis and alternate…

Building codes in southern Florida require hurricane straps on single-family dwellings in order to more securely anchor the roof to the buildings. The straps should have no more than a 10% chance of failure in 150mph wind, and no more than a 45% chance of failure in a 200mph wind. 164 straps are tested at 200mph, and 48 of them fail. (a) Perform a hypothesis test to evaluate the claim that the straps are performing to code to an α = 0.01(b) Provide the p − value for your test statistic determined in (a)(c) If you wished to construct a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion with half-width E = 0.01, approximately how many straps would you need to test?
In the current pandemic, researchers are working on creating antibody tests to determine which individuals have already had an infection caused by the COVID-19 virus. If someone has been infected, then they will have certain antibodies in their system and the hope is that a highly accurate test can be created to detect these antibodies. Assume a researcher creates a new antibody test, which for individuals who are known to have had the infection in the past and thus truly have the COVID-19 antibodies, gives a positive result 95% of the time. This same test gives a negative result 90% of time for people who do not have the antibodies. Assume that COVID-19 has affected 5% of the population in the region of interest. What is the probability someone has NOT been infected previously given that their antibody test result comes back positive? [four decimals]
In a random sample, 55 nurses who worked in the Covid-19 wing of a private hospital were interviewed, 10 indicated they were diagnosed with Covid-19 in 2020. When 50 nurses who do not work in the Covid-19 wing were selected at random, 8 indicated they were diagnosed with Covid-19 in 2020. Q.1.2.1 Calculate the standard deviation of the differences between the sample proportions of nurses who work in the Covid-19 wing and the sample proportions of nurses who do not work in the Covid-19 wing of the hospital. Q.1.2.2 Calculate the test statistic, z, of the differences between the sample proportions of nurses who work in the Covid-19 wing and the sample proportions of nurses who do not work in the Covid-19 wing of the hospital. Q.1.2.3 Find the probability that the sample proportions of nurses who work in the Covid-19 wing have higher chances of getting Covid-19 than sample
Consider a study in which the sum of squares (SS) based on an experimental group of 10 participants is 100, and the SS based on a control group of 20 participants is 250. The estimated starboard error of this study is ___.
A random sample of 40 drivers in Johor were asked if they favor the use of RON95 or RON97 fuels for their cars. 22 drivers favor RON95 while others favor RON97. Based on the collected responses, can we claim that at least 60% of the drivers favor the use of RON97? Use aα = 0.01.
Looking at the above summary statistics from July 2020 for patients with confirmed Covid-19 in adult critical care, answer the following questions: What is the sample size for patients with confirmed COVID 19 were in Adult Critical Care beds in the sample hospital (Hammersmith Hospital) What is the sample size for All critical care units for Patients with confirmed COVID19 Give a brief explanation of SD Give a brief explanation of IQR How old were the patients in General Adult Critical Care with confirmed COVID19 one SD below the mean at Hammersmith Hospital How old were the patients in General Adult Critical Care with confirmed COVID19 on the 25th centile at Hammersmith Hospital Calculate .
One of the tests for Covid-19 is a genetic test, the aim of which is to detect viral RNA. If this test is applied during Stage 1, it will not detect the virus since the virus is hidden away inside the patient’s cells. 2% of patients with respiratory symptoms whose test indicates the presence of the SARS-Cov2, do not in fact have the SARS-Cov2, due to errors in the way the test is conducted. If this test is applied during Stage 2, it should detect SARS-Cov2 but 3% of these tests fail to detect SARS-Cov2 also due to errors in the way the test is conducted. a) Write the 2% and 3% probabilities using conditional probability notation, e.g. P(X|Y)=0.02. b) Are the 2% and 3% an example of a false positive rate or a false negative rate or neither? c) Is it possible to estimate the false negative probability of the genetic test by applying the test to patients known to be in Stage 3 of Covid-19? d) Is it possible to estimate the false positive probability by applying the test to patients known…
A newspaper article reported that people spends a mean of 6 hours per day watching tv, with a standard deviation of 1.8 hours. A psychologist would like to conduct interviews with the 15% of the population who spend the most time watching tv. She assumes that the daily time spent watching tv is normally distributed. At least how many hours of daily tv watching are necessary to be eligible for the interview? Carry intermediate computations to 4 places, and the answer to 1.
he CDC is collecting data on the number of people infected with COVID. They use their SRS to estimate the number of infected Americans to be 50,000 with a margin of error of 5,000 with 95% confidence. Is it possible that only 42,000 Americans are infected?
A random sample of 190 engineering faculty members was asked if there should be arequired software development course for engineering majors. Of these samplemembers, 135 felt there was a need for a software course. Test the hypothesis that atleast 70% of all engineering faculty members hold this view. Use α= 0.02.
A random sample of 300 employees was chosen to take COVID-19 test. Results indicated that 180 employees have positive results. Use a 0.05 significant level. Set up the appropriate hypotheses that attempt to test the claim most employees at the company have COVID-19 O a. HO:P3D0.5 and Hl:p>=0.5 HO: p=0.5 and Hl: p0.5 Od. HO: p-0.5 and HT: p<0.5 e. None of these alternatives is correct.
Suppose the Japanese Health Authority conducts a country wide survey to assess if men or womenhave the same likelihood of getting infected with COVID-19. A random sample of (500 + 90) and 400 women were selected, and 50% of these men and 45% of thesewomen were infected with COVID-19, respectively. What is the 91.98% condence interval for thetrue dierence in proportion of men and women who get infected with COVID-19.
