Write the null and alternative hypotheses you would use to test each of the situations in parts (a) . b) Fill in the boxes with one of the following: (a) A mayor is concerned about his "positives," that is, the percentage of city residents who express approval of his job performance. His political committee pays for a series ofTV ads, hoping that they can keep the positives above 47%. They will use follow up polling to assess the ads' effectiveness. Let p be the proportion of city residents who expressapproval of the mayor's performance.Ho: P = 0.47HA: P>0.47(b) is a six-section spinner fair?

More than 11% of people mind if others smoke near a building entrance. Express the null and alternative hypotheses in symbolic form for this claim.H0:H1:
If you hypothesize that there is no difference between means, this means the alternative hypothesis is ??: ?1 = ?2 Determine whether the statement is true or false. If the statement is false, EXPLAIN why.
The zombie apocalypse has broken out! It’s like an episode of the Walking Dead out there! You want to determine if the individuals roaming the streets, looking for brains to eat, are actual zombies. What would be your Type II error, given the following hypotheses. H0: They are not zombies! H1: They are zombies! Group of answer choices A.You find they are not zombies, but they actually are B. You find they are zombies, but they actually are not. C. You find that they are zombies, and in fact, they are D. You accidentally sampled Walking Dead extras, not real zombies
What is the underlying reason, or root cause, of both type I and type II errors? (It's the same for both.) If you really know what you're doing, this is a two-word answer.
The proportion of the population in favor of a particular law was about 66%. It is believed that the current proportion of the population in favor of the law has decreased. To assess this, you collect a sample of n=340 people and 197 indicate being in favor of the law. We wish to test the claim that the proportion of the population in favor of the law has decreased. Symbolically, the claim would be expressed as the alternative hypothesis: Ha:p
9 12 18 The literature for a particular medical procedure says there is a 70% chance it is successful. A surgeon performing the procedure tells his patients that the proportion of procedures he performs that are successful is higher than that. In a random sample of 30 procedures performed by the surgeon, 24 were successful. Use the results of 75 simulations shown in the null distribution below to evaluate the surgeon's claim. 0.40 0.47 0.53 0.60 0.67 0.73 0.80 0.87 0.93 1
Every time you conduct a hypothesis test, there are four possible outcomes of your decision to reject or not reject the null hypothesis: (1) You don’t reject the null hypothesis when it is true, (2) you reject the null hypothesis when it is true, (3) you don’t reject the null hypothesis when it is false, and (4) you reject the null hypothesis when it is false. Consider the following analogy: You are a meat inspector for the county health department. For every batch of meat you inspect, you must decide whether to certify that the meat is safe for human consumption. Suppose your null hypothesis is that the meat is unfit for human consumption. As in hypothesis testing, there are four possible outcomes of your decision: (1) You do not certify the meat when the meat is unfit for human consumption, (2) you certify the meat when the meat is unfit for human consumption, (3) you do not certify the meat when the meat is safe, and (4) you certify the meat when the meat is safe. Which of the…
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is charged with protecting consumers from unsafe and ineffective drugs on the market. Suppose an effective drug is being tested for safety using the hypotheses: Ho: Drug is safe Ha: Drug is not safe a. Explain the consequence of type I error to the manufacturer. b. Explain the consequence of type II error to the manufacturer.
You are driving home one night and must decide if you have enough gas to get home or not. Use the hypotheses below to answer the questions. Ho: My vehicle has enough gas to get home.Ha: My vehicle does not have enough gas to get home. A. A type I error occurs if I conclude (believe) my vehicle does/does not (circle the correct choice) have enough gas to get home, but in fact, my vehicle does / does not (circle the correct choice)have enough gas to get home. B. List one possible consequence that could happen if you made a type I error. C. A type II error occurs if I conclude (believe) my vehicle does / does not (circle the correct choice ) have enough gas to get home, but in fact, my vehicle does / does not (circle the correct choice) have enough gas to get home. D. List one possible consequence that could happen if you made a type Il error. E. Based on the seriousness of the consequences of these two errors, we should set a / B to be less than a /B. Circle the better option for each…
Discuss whether the following hypothesis is a good hypothesis (i.e., they are logical, testable, refutable, and positive). Specifically say whether if it is logical, testable, refutable, and positive. If so, why? If not, why not? If atomic weapons were never invented, then there would be less anxiety in the world.
