A survey and research company claims that TV network A garnered 31% audience satisfaction. To test the claim, TV network A conducted a survey from 2000 randomly selected viewers all over the country with a 0.05 significance level. Which of the following is the correct null and alternative hypothesis?

Example: Assume that adults were randomly selected for a poll. They were asked if they "favor or oppose using federal tax dollars to fund medical research using stem cells obtained from human embryos.” Of those polled, 480 were in favor and 394 were opposed. A politician claims that people don’t really understand the stem cell issue and their responses to such questions are random responses equivalent to a coin toss. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that the proportion of subjects who respond in favor is equal to 0.5. What does the result suggest about the politician’s claim? Following the hypothesis test steps, let’s first identify the claim and the null and alternative hypotheses: For this example, the original claim is that the proportion of the subjects who responded in favor is equal to 0.5 (half – since the politician compared their responses as equivalent to a coin toss). The symbolic form of the politician’s claim can be expressed as p = 0.5. Also notice…

A. Suppose we want to test whether or not three means are equal. We want to perform this test with a 8% significance level.If we perform an ANOVA test, what is the probability of the test producing accurate results (avoiding a Type I error)? B. Suppose we, instead, run three separate hypothesis tests (t-tests), each with 8% significance level. Mean 1 = Mean 2Mean 1 = Mean 3Mean 2 = Mean 3What is the probability that all three tests would be accurate? C. Why is an ANOVA test more accurate than 3 different tests?
A newsletter publisher believes that 48 % of their readers own a laptop. A testing firm believes this is inaccurate and performs a test to dispute the publisher's claim. After performing a test at the 0.10 level of significance, the testing firm fails to reject the null hypothesis. What is the conclusion regarding the publisher’s claim?
According to a book published in 2011, 45% of the undergraduate students in the United States show almost no gain in learning in their first two years of college (Richard Arum et al., Academically Adrift, University of Chicago Press, Chicago, 2011). A recent sample of 1540 undergraduate students showed that this percentage is 37%. Can you reject the null hypothesis at a 2.5% significance level in favor of the alternative that the percentage of undergraduate students in the United States who show almost no gain in learning in their first two years of college is currently lower than 45%. Use both the p-value and the critical-value approaches. Round your answers for the observed value of z and the critical value of z to two decimal places, and the p-value to four decimal places. Zobserved = p-value = Critical value = i Hence we can conclude that the percentage of undergraduate students in the U.S. who show almost no gain in learning in their fırst two years of college is currently 45%.
An author argues that more American-born baseball players have birth dates in the months immediately following July 31 because that was the age cutoff date for nonschool baseball leagues. The table below lists months of births for a sample of American-born baseball players and foreign-born baseball players. Using a 0.05 significance level, is there sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that months of births of baseball players are independent of whether they are born in America? Do the data appear to support the author's claim? Jan. Feb. March April May June July Aug. Sept. Oct. Nov. Dec. Born in America 387 329 366 346 339 312 310 503 424 437 397 372 Foreign Born 101 81 84 81 93 82 59 90 69 99 104 81 Identify the null and alternative hypotheses for this test. O A. Ho: Months of births of baseball players are independent of where they are born. H1: : Months of births of baseball players are dependent of where they are born. B. Ho: The frequency of births is dependent of…
A study of seat belt users and nonusers yielded the randomly selected sample data summarized in the accompanying table. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the amount of smoking is independent of seat belt use. A plausible theory is that people who smoke are less concerned about their health and safety and are therefore less inclined to wear seat belts, Is this theory supported by the sample data? BB Click the icon to view the data table. Determine the null and alternative hypotheses. O A. Ho: The amount of smoking is dependent upon seat belt use. H₁: The amount of smoking is not dependent upon seat belt use. O B. Ho: Heavy smokers are not less likely than non-smokers to wear a seat belt. H₁: Heavy smokers are less likely than non-smokers to wear a seat belt. OC, Ho: Heavy smokers are less likely than non-smokers to wear a seat belt. H₁: Heavy smokers are not less likely than non-smokers to wear a seat belt. O D. Ho: The amount of smoking is independent of seat belt…
An Office of Admission document claims that 55.6% of UVA undergraduates are female. To test this claim, a random sample of 205 UVA undergraduates was selected. In this sample, 55.4% were female. Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that the document's claim is false? Is the percent of undergraduate females different from what is claimed? Carry out a hypothesis test at a 9% significance level. A. The value of the standardized test statistic (give to at least 3 decimal places): B. The p-value is (give to 4 decimal places) C. Your decision for the hypothesis test: OA. Do Not Reject Ho OB. Reject H,- OC. Do Not Reject H1. OD. Reject Ho-
In a study of 800 randomly selected medical malpractice lawsuits, it was found that 510 of them were dropped or dismissed. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that most medical malpractice lawsuits are dropped or dismissed. Which of the following is the hypothesis test to be conducted? OA. Ho: p=0.5 H₁: p0.5 OD. Ho: p0.5 H₁: p=0.5 OF. Ho: p > 0.5 H₁: p=0.5
An article in a journal reports that 34% of American fathers take no responsibility for child care. A researcher claims that the figure is higher for fathers in the town of Littleton. A random sample of 232 fathers from Littleton yielded 101 who did not help with child care. Do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that in Littleton the proportion is higher than 0.34? Use a 0.05 significance level. Null Hypothesis Ho: p = Alternative Hypothesis H1: p Test Statistic Z = p-value p = Conclusion: Write "Do" or "Do not" reject the null hypothesis.
