an experiment, some diseased mice were randomly divided into two groups. One group was given an experimental drug. and one was not. The mean remaining lifespan of the mice given the ug was 18.2 days, and the mean remaining lifespan of those not given the drug was 15.0 days. The experiment was randomly simulated many times using a computer without knowing the effect the drug, and the standard deviation of the differences of the sample means of the two groups was 1.1 days. Was the difference in the means in the actual experiment significant at a 05% nfidence level, and for what reason?

A large clinical trial of the effect of diet on breast cancer assigned women at random to either a normal diet or a low-fat diet. To check that the random assignment did produce comparable groups, we can compare the two groups at the start of the study. Asked if there is a family history of breast cancer: 1276 of the 5964 women in the low-fat group and 1507 of the 7726 women in the control group said "Yes." If the random assignment worked well, there should not be a significant difference in the proportions with a family history of breast cancer. How significant is the observed difference? State: Is there evidence of a difference in the proportion of women with a family history of breast cancer between the treatment and control groups? Plan: Let pi be the proportion for the treatment group, and Pz the proportion for the control group. State the hypotheses for your test. Ha:Pi + P2 Solve: Give the value of the test statistic. Use the calculator. Select an answer ♥ Ho:pi = p2 What is the…
A study was conducted using 50 mobile network users who volunteered to participate in a research as the entry of the third telco player in the country is on its way. One of the variables studied was the data connection speed in the previous month. Based on the data in the following table, is there a significant difference between the connectivity speeds of the two present mobile networks during the previous month? Use a 5% level of significance and assume that the population variances are equal. 1. The alternative hypothesis for the test would be? 2. The alternative hypothesis for the test would be? 3. What is the computed value of the test statistic? 4. What would be your decision?
Tardigrades, or water bears, are a type of micro-animal famous for their resilience. In examining the effects of radiation on arganisms, an expert claimed that the amount of gamma radiation needed to sterilize a colany of tardigrades no longer has a mean of 1200 Gy (grays). (For comparison, humans cannot withstand more than 10 Gy.) A study was conducted on a sample of 21 randomly selected tardigrade colonies, finding that the amount of gamma radiation needed to sterilize a colony had a sample mean af 1225 Gy, with a sample standard deviation of 65 Gy. Assume that the population of amounts of gamma radiation needed to sterilize a colony of tardigrades is approximately normally distributed. Complete the parts below to perform a hypothesis test to see if there is enough evidence, at the 0.10 level af significance, to support the claim that H, the mean amount of gamma radiation needed to sterilize a colony of tardigrades, is nat equal to 1200 Gy. (a) State the null hypothesis and the…
A manufacturer ran an experiment to compare the wearing qualities of two different types of automobile tires, A and B. In the experiment, a tire of Type A and one of the type B were randomly assigned and mounted on the rear wheels of each of five cars. the cars were then operated for x miles and the amount of tire wear was recorded (higher number represents more wear). Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a difference in the average wear? Use 0.05 level of significance. Tire A 10.6 9.8 12.3 9.7 8.8 Tire B 10.2 9.4 11.8 9.1 8.3
A cell phone manufacturer tests the battery lifetimes of its cell phones by recording the time it takes for the battery charges to run out while testers are streaming videos on the phones continuously. The manufacturer claims that the population mean of the battery lifetimes of all phones of their latest model is 5.26 hours. As a researcher for a consumer information service, you want to test that claim. To do so, you select a random sample of 45 cell phones of the Español manufacturer's latest model and record their battery lifetimes. Assume it is known that the population standard deviation of the battery lifetimes for that cell phone model is 2.42 hours. Based on your sample, follow the steps below to construct a 99% confidence interval for the population mean of the battery lifetimes for all phones of the manufacturer's latest model. Then state whether the confidence interval you construct contradicts the manufacturer's claim. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) 00 (a)…
Use the following information to answer the question. A researcher wants to study different messaging platforms by collecting data on 40 individuals. Half of the individuals only use iMessage while the other half only use What's App. For the individuals who only used iMessage, they sent an average of 280 messages with a sample variance of 170 in the past week. For the individuals who only used What's App, they sent an average of 295 messages with a sample variance of 182 in the past week. Determine if there is a significant difference between the average messages sent between the two groups of individuals. Use a significance level of 1%. What is the null hypothesis? Group of answer choices A. The iMessage group on average sent more messages than the What's App group. B. The iMessage group on average sent less messages than the What's App group. C. There is no difference in the average number of messages sent between the two groups. D. There is a difference in the average…
A science project involves testing the effects of different types of music on plant growth. A sample of 24 newly sprouted bean plants is obtained. The plants are randomly assigned to each experimental condition (6 per group). The experimental conditions are: rock music, heavy metal, country, and classical. The dependent variable is the height of each plant after 2 weeks. The ANOVA results are summarized as follows: MSB = 10 and SSW =40. Construct a summary table for this study
It has been found that 25.1% of men (Group 1) 20 years and older suffer from hypertension (high blood pressure) and 33.9% of women (Group 2) are hypertensive. A random sample of 164 of each gender was selected from recent hospital records, and the following results were obtained. Can you conclude that a higher percentage of women have high blood pressure? Use =0.05. Men: 42 patients had high blood pressure Women: 52 patients had high blood pressure Required: Test Value Only the final answer should be rounded-off to TWO decimal places.

The data in the attached image represents blood pressure based on a new trial medication used in an experiment involving a total of 50 male and female subjects. There were two levels of treatment: 0 = placebo and 1 = treatment group. Family History Blood Pressure = Fam-Hist-BP; from the paternal side = PS; from the maternal side = MS; from both sides = BS; none on both sides or not known = N.; Blood pressure before the experiment = BP-Before-Exp; Blood pressure after the experiment = BP-After-Exp. Task: Construct a histogram to represent the family BP history, the subjects' BP before treatment and the subjects' BP after treatment.

A large company that produces a "tat-burner pill claims an average Ioss of 20 pounds in the first month. A consumer advocacy group believes that this claim is actually just "hype" intended to sell more of the compound. The advocacy group Would like to obtain statistical evidence about this issue and takes a random sample of 100 consumers who responded that they had purchased the pill but didn't know what the survey was about. They find that these 100 people lost an average of 18 pounds. Let the standard deviation of the population be 7.5 pounds. Clearly state the hypotheses, obtain the test statistic and p-value, and state the decision and conclusion. Show all your work.
