b. What is the test statistic? z= -2.58 (Round to two decimal places as needed.) c. What is the P-value? P-value = 0.0050 (Round to four decimal places as needed.) d. What is the null hypothesis, and what do you conclude about it? Identify the null hypothesis. Ho: p>0.11 Ho: p+0.11 H.n=0 11
Continuous Probability Distributions
Probability distributions are of two types, which are continuous probability distributions and discrete probability distributions. A continuous probability distribution contains an infinite number of values. For example, if time is infinite: you could count from 0 to a trillion seconds, billion seconds, so on indefinitely. A discrete probability distribution consists of only a countable set of possible values.
Normal Distribution
Suppose we had to design a bathroom weighing scale, how would we decide what should be the range of the weighing machine? Would we take the highest recorded human weight in history and use that as the upper limit for our weighing scale? This may not be a great idea as the sensitivity of the scale would get reduced if the range is too large. At the same time, if we keep the upper limit too low, it may not be usable for a large percentage of the population!
Question:
A certain drug is used to treat asthma. In a clinical trial of the drug, 21 of 289 treated subjects experienced headaches (based on the data from the manufacturer). The accompanying calculator display shows results from a test of the claim that less than 12% of treated subjects experienced headaches. Use the
