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. Which is the null hypothesis? Ο H : σ-0.85 O Ho : µ = 0. 85 Ho : a : 0. 85 O Ho : p= 0. 85

9 K Consider a drug that is used to help prevent blood clots in certain patients. In clinical trials, among 6210 patients treated with this drug, 151 developed the adverse reaction of nausea. Use a 0.10 significance level to test the claim that 3% of users develop nausea. Does nausea appear to be a problematic adverse reaction? Identify the null and alternative hypotheses for this test. Choose the correct answer below. OA. Ho: p=0.03 H₁: p=0.03 OB. Ho: p*0.03 H₁: p=0.03 O C. Ho: p=0.03 H₁: p>0.03 OD. Ho: p=0.03 H₁: p<0.03 Identify the test statistic for this hypothesis test. The test statistic for this hypothesis test is. (Round to two decimal places as needed.) Identify the P-value for this hypothesis test. The P-value for this hypothesis test is. (Round to three decimal places as needed.) Identify the conclusion for this hypothesis test. C OA. Reject Ho. There is not sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that 3% of users develop nausea. OB. Fail to reject Ho. There is…
You are testing to see if p1 = .2, p2 = .3 and p3 = .5. You take a sample of size 100 and tind 22 of the first population, 27 of the second population and 51 from the third population. Test Ho : P1 = .2, p2 = .3 and p3 = .5 against H1 : not Ho using alpha = .05.

Use the data corresponding to measurements of brain volume (measured in cm3 )and IQ. Based on the data, could we say that the correlation between these 2 variables is different from 0?

Travis does research with a marine biology research team. His job is to catch lobsters, weigh them, tag them, and return them to the water. Over the years, the team has determined that the average weight in pounds of the lobsters caught at a particular location was µ = 2.1 lbs. with a σ of 1.8 lbs. As part of an annual survey, Travis catches 27 lobsters with a mean of 3.1 lbs. Is he correct in assuming that the lobsters he caught are significantly heavier that those usually found in that location? Please use α = .05 and a two-tailed test.
A researcher wanted to determine if car preference was related to city of birth. So, she polled 200 people who were born in either Detroit or Tokyo and asked them which car manufacturer they preferred. The data are below. Conduct the appropriate χ2 statistical test using an alpha level of .05 and the eight steps of hypothesis testing. (NOTE: You do not have to use the correction equation if df=1) Chevy Toyota Detroit 75 25 Tokyo 15 85
Which of the following is not a cause of perfect multicollinearity? Select all that apply. One of the explanatory variables is equal to half of another explanatory variable for 100% of the observations in the sample. The correlation between two of the explanatory variables is 1.00. One of the explanatory variables is equal to half of another explanatory variable for 20% of the observations in the sample. A dummy variable for male is included at the same time as a dummy variable for non-male. One of the regressors is X and another regressor is X².

A random sample of size 36 from a population with known variance, o = 9, yields a sample mean of x = 17. Find ß, for testing the hypothesis H,: u = 15 versus H1 : =16. Assume a 0.05. %3D %3D
A nationwide survey in 2001 revealed that U.S. grade-school children spend an average of µ = 8.0 hours per week doing homework. The distribution is normal with σ = 2.5. Last year, a sample of n = 100 grade-school children was given the same survey. For this sample, the mean number of homework hours was 7.4. Has there been a significant change in the homework habits of grade-school children? Test with α = .05. For each problem students will write out all steps of hypothesis testing: State the null and research hypotheses. Set the level of risk associated with the null hypothesis. Select the appropriate test statistic. Compute the test statistic value (called the obtained value). Determine the value needed for rejection of the null hypothesis using the appropriate table of critical values for the particular statistic. Compare the obtained value and the critical value.

A sunscreen company is attempting to improve upon their formula so that it lasts in water longer. They have 4 lead scientists who each came up with a different formulas. In order to see if there is a difference in the time the sunscreen lasts the CEO collects a random sample of each of the four sunscreens the data is shown below. Test the claim that at least one sunscreen has a different lifespan in water at a 0.10 level of significance.
