In the population of senior students at Shermer High School, the proportion who plan to attend college is 0.64. In a random sample of 100 students from this population, the proportion who plan to attend college is 0.75. We would call the value 0.64 a P-value. z-score. parameter statistic significance level.

The old variety of a plant has 70% pink flowers. A new variety is developed. In a random sample of 93 plants from the new variety, 59 had pink flowers. Test the claim that the percent of plants with pink flowers for the new variety is different than 70%. Use a 0.10 level of significance. Question 6 options: DO NOT Reject H0 Using a 0.10 level of significance there is not evidence to say the proportion of pink flowers is different than 0.70 Reject H0 Using a 0.10 level of significance there is evidence to say the proportion of pink flowers is not different than 0.70
For a repeated-measures study comparing two treatment conditions, a researcher obtains a sample of n = 10 difference scores with a mean of MD = 6 and a variance of s2 = 90. What is the value for the repeated-measures t statistic for these data? Select one: a. 7 b. 6 c. 2 d. 15
A replacement part for a machine must be produced within close specifications in order for it to be acceptable to customers. A production process is considered to be working properly as long as the variance in the lengths of the parts does not exceed 0.055 squared-units. Suppose the sample variance computed from 46 parts turns out to be s? = 0.079. (You may find it useful to reference the appropriate table: chi-square table or F table) a. Select the null and the alternative hypotheses to test if the production specification is not being met at a 1% level of significance.
