Which hypothesis test would be appropriate to determine whether the new variety of orangehas a significantly higher content of vitamin C than the variety that is currently the top seller?Do NOT perform a hypothesis test – simply tell me which test should be used, why youchose this test, and give the formula for the test statistic. An agriculturist claims that she has cultivated a new variety of orange that has a significantlyhigher content of vitamin C than the variety that is currently the top seller. A random sample of 15oranges of the new variety and a random sample of 13 oranges of the current top seller weresampled, giving the following results:n1 = 15 s? = 6.4460n2 = 13 s3 = 9.0336

Recently, a health organization estimated that the flu vaccine was 75% effective against the influenza B virus. An immunologist suspects that the current flu vaccine is less effective against this virus. Pick the correct pair of hypotheses the immunologist could use to test this claim.

Would you favor spending more federal tax money on the arts? Of a random sample of n1 = 217 women, r1 = 52 responded yes. Another random sample of n2 = 175 men showed that r2 = 48 responded yes. Does this information indicate a difference (either way) between the population proportion of women and the population proportion of men who favor spending more federal tax dollars on the arts? Use ? = 0.05. (a) What is the level of significance? (b) What is the value of the sample test statistic? (Test the difference p1 − p2. Do not use rounded values. Round your final answer to two decimal places.)(c) Find (or estimate) the P-value. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
Would you favor spending more federal tax money on the arts? Of a random sample of n1 = 232 women, r1 = 66 responded yes. Another random sample of n2 = 198 men showed that r2 = 65 responded yes.

A polling agency is interested in testing whether the proportion of women who support a female candidate for office is greater than the proportion of men. The null hypothesis is that there is no difference in the proportion of men and women who support the female candidate. The alternative hypothesis is that the proportion of women who support the female candidate is greater than the proportion of men. The test results in a p-value of 0.112. Which of the following is the best interpretation of the p-value? A. The p-value is the probability that women will support the female candidate. B. The p-value is the probability that men will support the female candidate. C. The p-value is the probability of getting a result that is as extreme as or more extreme than the one obtained, assuming that the proportion of women who support the female candidate is greater than the proportion of men. D. The p-value is the probability of getting a result that is as…
Floretta, a golfer, claims that her drive distance is not equal to 238 meters, on average. Several of her friends do not believe her, so she decides to do a hypothesis test, at a 5% significance level, to persuade them. She hits 19 drives, collects the proper data, and works through the testing procedure: • Hou = 238; HH #238 • a = 0.05 (significance level) The test statistic is X-Ho Zo == 256-238 14 V19 <= 5.6 • The critical values are -20.025 = -1.96 and 20.025 = 1.96. Conclude whether to reject or not reject Ho. and interpret the results. Select the correct answer below: Reject Ho. At the 5% significance level, the test results are not statistically significant and at best, provide weak evidence against the null hypothesis. Reject Ho. At the 5% significance level, the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean distance is not equal to 238 meters. Do not reject Ho. At the 5% significance level, the test results are not statistically significant and at best, provide…
Mt. Dew is thinking about coming out with a new flavor. They are using a sample of 40 people who are tsting the new falvor. The people in the study were then given a questionnaire which evaluated how enjoyable to flavor was. The competing flavor has been studies extensively an population average value of 10.8. Write an appropiate null and alternative hypothesis ir order to test if there is a significant difference between the two drinks The ratings for the new Mt. Dew has an average of 14.4 and a sample standard deviation of 3.50. Calculate the test statistic for this hypothesis test. Calculate the p-value for this test statistic.

Twenty years ago, 57% of parents of children in high school felt it was a serious problem that high school students were not being taught enough math and science. A recent survey found that 244 of 700 parents of children in h was a serious problem that high school students were not being taught enough math and science. Do parents feel differently today than they did twenty years ago? Use the a= 0.1 level of significance.

A survey by Men’s Health magazine stated that 14% of men said they used exercise to reduce stress. Could this be valid, or is it actually less than what the magazine claims? A random sample of 100 men was selected, and 10 said that they used exercise to relieve stress. If a=0.10, test a hypothesis and state your conclusion in context.
