A well-known brokerage firm executive claimed that 60% of investors are currently confident of meeting their investment goals. An XYZ Investor Optimism Survey, conducted over a two week period, found that in a sample of 200 people, 58% of them said they are confident of meeting their goals.

Spam: A researcher reported that 71.8 % of all email sent in a recent month was spam. A system manager at a large corporation believes that the percentage at his company may be 69%. He examines a random sample of 500 emails received at an email server, and finds that 365 of the messages are spam. Can you conclude that greater than 69% of emails are spam? Use both a=0.01 and a= 0.05 levels of significance and the critical value method with the table. Part 1 of 5 State the appropriate null and alternate hypotheses. Ho: P- .69 H1: p> .69 This hypothesis test is a right-tailed V test. Part 2 of 5 Find the critical values. Round the answers to three decimal places. For a=0.01 , the critical value is 2.326 For a=0.05 , the critical value is 1.645 Part: 2/5 Part 3 of 5 Compute the test statistic. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round the answer to two decimal places.

It has been reported in the past that the probability that an individual will develop schizophrenia over their lifetime is 0.004. A researcher believes that this proportion has increases since then. She found out that in a random sample of 2500 individuals, 16 developed schizophrenia. Is there evidence to support the claim that the true proportion of people who will develop schizophrenia is greater 0.004? Use hypothesis testing at a = 0.10 level of significance to answer this question. a. State the null and alternative hypotheses. b. What is the probability model (underlying distribution of the sample proportion p)? c. Compute p. d. Compute the test statistic. e. Find the P-value. f. Make the decision whether to reject Ho or not. g. State a conclusion answering the question above. 1
A new reading program may reduce the number of elementary school students who read below grade level. The company that developed this program supplied materials and teacher training for a large-scale test involving nearly 8,400 children in several different school districts. Statistical analysis of the results showed that the percentage of students who did not meet the grade-level goal was reduced from 14.7% to 14%. The hypothesis that the new reading program produced no improvement was rejected with a P-value of 0.026. Complete parts a) and b) below. a) Explain what the P-value means in this context. Choose the correct answer below. OA. There is a 97.4% chance of seeing a sample proportion of 14.7% (or more) of students failing the test by natural sampling variation if 14% is the true population value. B. There is only a 2.6% chance of seeing a sample proportion of 14.7% (or more) of students failing the test by natural sampling variation if 14% is the true population value. OC. There…
The effectiveness of a blood-pressure drug is being investigated. An experimenter finds that, on average, the reduction in systolic blood pressure is 25.4 for a sample of size 29 and standard deviation 14.8. Estimate how much the drug will lower a typical patient's systolic blood pressure (using a 90 % confidence level). Assume the data is from a normally distributed population. Enter your answer as a tri-linear inequality accurate to three decimal places.
