A random sample of 10 secretaries was asked to type a certain memorandum using both computers and typewriters, and the time required to finish the task was recorded for each secretary. A test of hypothesis will be conducted to determine if there is enough evidence to conclude that the average time required to type a certain memorandum is faster if female secretaries are using computers rather than typewriters using a 5% level of significance. What are the critical value(s) that will be used in the conduct of the above test of hypothese a)1.812 b)2.262 c)1.8331 d)1.960

An epidemiologist found five cases of “big toe cancer” in the Yukon Territory. Because there were only a few cases, the epidemiologist decided to conduct a matched case-control study to determine whether shoe size larger than 9 is a risk factor for big toe cancer. Cases were individually matched to one control for daily activity, history of athlete’s foot, and history of ingrown toenails. The following data were gathered: Shoe size > 9 Pair Case Control 1 Yes No 2 No No 3 No Yes 4 Yes Yes 5 No Yes Compute the proper measure of association. Interpret your results. If you were to investigate a rare cancer in Lynchburg, where might you look for data? What would be necessary legally and ethically to be able to utilize this data set(s)?

Suppose a researcher conducted a study examining the effectiveness of font type (OpenDyslexic vs. Times New Roman) on reading comprehension for 20 students with dyslexia. After reading a passage in one of the two fonts, 10 students in each of the two font conditions completed a brief reading comprehension test of 15 questions. The number of correctly answered questions for each student is given in the table below: Complete the following in the context of conducting data analysis/ a. Calculate the average number of correct test questions for each group b. Calculate the standard deviation for each group c. Calculate the median and mode for both groups d.

A hospital reported that the normal death rate for patients with extensive burns (more than 40% of skin area) has been significantly reduced by the use of new fluid plasma compresses. Before the new treatment, the mortality rate for extensive burn patients was about 60%. Using the new compresses, the hospital found that only 44 of 93 patients with extensive burns died. Use a 1% level of significance to test the claim that the mortality rate has dropped. A) What is the value of the sample test statistic? (Round your answer to two decimal places.) B) what is the P value C) Will you reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis
A student wants to see if the number of times a book has been checked out of the library in the past year and the number of pages in the book are related. She guesses that the number of times a book has been checked out of the library in the past year will be a predictor of the number of pages it has. She randomly sampled 15 books from the library, test her claim at a 0.05 level of significance. number of times checked out number of pages 13 223 45 350 49 377 30 371 3 343 7 280 17 218 7 265 20 382 23 287 1 313 30 388 20 358 2 311 40 421 The correlation coefficient: r= (round to 3 decimal places) The equation y=a+bx is: (round to 3 decimal places) y=+ x The hypotheses are: H0:ρ=0H0:ρ=0 (no linear relationship)HA:ρ≠0HA:ρ≠0 (linear relationship) (claim) Since αα is 0.05 the critical value is -2.16 and 2.16 The test value is: (round to 3 decimal places) The p-value is: (round to 3 decimal places) The decision is to reject H0H0 do not reject…
US Universities found that 72% of people are concerned about the possibility that their personal records could be stolen over the internet. If a random sample of 300 college students at a Midwestern university were taken and 228 of them were concerned about the possibility that their personal records could be stolen over the Internet, could you conclude at the 0.025 level of significance that a higher proportion of the university’s college students are concerned about Internet theft than the public at large? Report the p-value for this test. Z0.025 = 1.96
The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA, 2017) estimates that 10.9% of the population of the United States age 18–24 had an episode of depression in the previous 12 months. Suppose a researcher takes a random sample of 225 United States adults aged 18–24. Determine the value of the sample proportion, p, such that 5% of samples of 225 United States adults age 18–24 are greater than p. You may find software or a z-table useful. Give your answer precise to three decimal places. p = II
A nationwide survey of working adults indicates that out of 100 adults, 50 of them are satisfied with their jobs. The president of a large company believes that more than this number of employees at his company are satisfies with their jobs. To test his belief, he surveys a random sample of 100 employees, and 59 of them report that they are satisfied with their jobs. Do you support president's statement about the employee’s satisfaction?
