A newspaper article headline claims that bystanders perform CPR correctly 43% of cases where needed. A healthcare professional believes the percentage is higher. She cites a study of 880 cases in which 396 bystanders performed CPR correctly. Test this hypothesis at the 0.01 significance level. Round-off your answers correct to 2 decimal places. a) Find the critical value(s). If there are two values (2 -tail test), type the negative value first and separate them with a comma. b) Calculate the test statistic c) Make a decision. Type R if you choose to "Reject the null hypothesis" Type F if you choose to "Fail to reject the null hypothesis.

Hi Can you please fill out the blanks?
A researcher wants to know if peoples standardized test performance is influenced by what they are wearing. They ask 16 ppl to take the SAT while wearing their best professional outfit. 6 months later they have the same 16 ppl take the SAT while wearing a bathing suit. What test would you use and why? (z test, independent t test, single sample t test, paired samples)
Since an instant replay system for tennis was introduced at a major tournament, men challenged 1413 referee calls, with the result that 426 of the calls were overturned. Women challenged 742 referee calls, and 228 of the calls were overturned. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that men and women have equal success in challenging calls. Identify the test statistic. z= ? (Round to two decimal places as needed.) Part 3 Identify the P-value. P-value= ? (Round to three decimal places as needed.) Part 4 What is the conclusion based on the hypothesis test? The P-value is ▼ greater than or less than the significance level of α=0.05, so ▼ fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis. There ▼ is not sufficient or is sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that women and men have equal success in challenging calls. Part 5 b. Test the claim by constructing an appropriate confidence interval. The 95% confidence…
A researcher believes that low BMI levels are indicators of eating disorders. He collects BMI of a sample of young adults identified as at risk for eating disorfers to see if their mean BMI is significantly below 18.5 What test would you use and why? (z test, independent t test, single sample t test, paired samples)
According to a survey conducted by the Association for Dressing and Sauces, 85% of American adults eat salad at least once a week. A nutritionist suspect that the percentage is higher that this. She conducts a survey of 200 American adults an finds that 171 of them eat salad at least once a week. Conduct the appropriate test that addresses the nutritionist's suspicions. Use the a = 0.1 level of significance. What is the test statistic? t-score population parameter Z-Score standard deviation
Data from 500 random tornados was collected and the length in miles that the tornado was touching the ground was recorded. We want to test the claim that the mean tornado length is greater than 2.5 miles using a .05 significance level. Using the traditional method if the test statictic is .759, x hat = 2.72424 and s= .2956. Tell why you made the decision you did.
A new vaccination is being used in a laboratory experiment to investigate whether it is effective. There are 279 subjects in the study. Is there sufficient evidence to determine if vaccination and disease status are related? Vaccination Status Diseased Not Diseased 54 71 125 Vaccinated Not Vaccinated Total 33 121 154 Total 87 192 279 Copy Data Step 6 of 8: Find the critical value of the test at the 0.025 level of significance. Round your answer to three decimal places.
The US Department of Energy reported that 48% of homes were heated by natural gas. A random sample of 317 homes in Oregon found that 166 were heated by natural gas. Test the claim that proportion of homes in Oregon that were heated by natural gas is different than what was reported. Use a 5% significance level. Give answer to at least 4 decimal places. What are the correct hypotheses? (Select the correct symbols and use decimal values not percentages.) Ho: P Test Statistic = 0° p-value = H₁: p Based on the hypotheses, compute the following: #v oº 48 48 <-Need answer, please. <-Need answer, please OB 0° Based on the above we choose to Fail to reject the null hypothesis ✓ OB The correct summary would be: There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the proportion of homes in Oregon that were heated by natural gas is different than what the DOE reported value of 48%.
A statistician changes her level of significance from .001 to .05. What impact will this change have on her risk of making a Type I and Type II error? Is the change in the level of significance a good decision? Why or why not?
