Blood glucose levels for obese patients have a mean of 100 with a standard deviation of 15. A researcher thinks that a diet high in raw cornstarch will have a positive or negative effect on blood glucose levels. A sample of 30 patients who have tried the raw cornstarch diet have a mean glucose level of 140. Test the hypothesis that the raw cornstarch had an effect (alpha = 5%).

In a test of the effectiveness of garlic for lowering cholesterol, 36subjects were treated with raw garlic. Cholesterol levels were measured before and after the treatment. The changes (before minus after) in their levels of LDL cholesterol (in mg/dL) have a mean of 0.9and a standard deviation of 2.28. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that with garlic treatment, the mean change in LDL cholesterol is greater than 0.What do the results suggest about the effectiveness of the garlic treatment? Assume that a simple random sample has been selected. Identify the null and alternative hypotheses, test statistic, P-value, and state the final conclusion that addresses the original claim. a) What are the null and alternative hypotheses? b) Determine the test statistic. c) Determine the P-value. d) (reject/do not reject). There is (sufficient/not sufficient) evidence to conclude that the mean of the population of changes are (=, not, >, <) to 0.
In a test of the effectiveness of garlic for lowering cholesterol, 36 subjects were treated with raw garlic. Cholesterol levels were measured before and after the treatment. The changes (before minus after) in their levels of LDL cholesterol (in mg/dL) have a mean of 0.1 and a standard deviation of 21.2. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that with garlic treatment, the mean change in LDL cholesterol is greater than 0. What do the results suggest about the effectiveness of the garlic treatment? Assume that a simple random sample has been selected. Identify the null and alternative hypotheses, test statistic, P-value, and state the final conclusion that addresses the original claim. What are the null and alternative hypotheses? B.

An almond milk distributor wants to determine whether the mean amount of almond milk contained in a 1 gallon bottle purchased from a store-brand competitor is actually 1 gallon. You know that the population standard deviation for almond milk gallons is .08. You select a random sample of 25 bottles with a mean amount of almond milk per 1 gallon as 0.976 gallon. Evaluate that there is evidence that the mean is different from 1 gallon, using an alpha level of 0.10.
In a test of the effectiveness of garlic for lowering cholesterol, 36 subjects were treated with raw garlic. Cholesterol levels were measured before and after the treatment. The changes (before minus after) in their levels of LDL cholesterol (in mg/dL) have a mean of 0.6 and a standard deviation of 1.54. Use a 0.10 significance level to test the claim that with garlic treatment, the mean change in LDL cholesterol is greater than 0. What do the results suggest about the effectiveness of the garlic treatment? Assume that a simple random sample has been selected. Identify the null and alternative hypotheses, test statistic, P-value, and state the final conclusion that addresses the original claim.
In a test of the effectiveness of garlic for lowering cholesterol, 36 subjects were treated with raw garlic. Cholesterol levels were measured before and after the treatment. The changes (before minus after) in their levels of LDL cholesterol (in mg/dL) have a mean of 0.7 and a standard deviation of 23.1. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that with garlic treatment, the mean change in LDL cholesterol is greater than 0. What do the results suggest about the effectiveness of the garlic treatment? Assume that a simple random sample has been selected. Identify the null and alternative hypotheses, test statistic, P-value, and state the final conclusion that addresses the original claim.
the quality of drinking water must be monitored as often as possible. one variable of concern is the pH level, which measures the alkalinity or acidity of the water. A pH below 7.0 is acidic while above 7.0 is alkaline. pH 7.p is neutral. a water treatment plant is targeting higher than 8.0 pH. Based on 16 random water samples,the mean is 7.6 and standard deviation is 0.4. test the claim using 5% level of significance.
In a test of the effectiveness of garlic for lowering cholesterol, 36subjects were treated with raw garlic. Cholesterol levels were measured before and after the treatment.

Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that with garlic treatment, the mean change in LDL cholesterol is greater than 0. What do the results suggest about the effectiveness of the garlic treatment? Assume that a simple random sample has been selected.
