According to Example 9.17 on p. 257, there is no significant difference, at the 5% level,
between towns A and B in their support for the candidate. However, the level α = 0.05 was chosen rather arbitrarily, and the candidate still does not know if he can trust the results when planning his campaign. Can we compare the two towns at all reasonable levels of significance? Compute the P-value of this test and state conclusions.
Example 9.17 -> the interval is [-0.14, 0.16]

- In a survey, 31% of the respondents stated that they talk to their pets on the telephone. A veterinarian believed this result to be too high, so he randomly selected 240 pet owners and discovered that 70 of them spoke to their pet on the telephone. Does the veterinarian have a right to be skeptical? Use the α = 0.05 level of significance. Because np (1-P₁) = 51.3 > 10, the sample size is satisfied. (Round to one decimal place as needed.) What are the null and alternative hypotheses? Ho: p = 0.31 versus H₁: P < 0.31 (Type integers or decimals. Do not round.) Find the test statistic, Zo. Zo = (Round to two decimal places as needed.) less than 5% of the population size, and the sample is given to be random, the requirements for testing the hypothesis areIn a fishing lodge brochure, the lodge advertises that 75% of its guests catch northern pike over 20 pounds. Suppose that last summer 71 out of a random sample of 86 guests did, in fact, catch northern pike weighing over 20 pounds. Does this indicate that the population proportion of guests who catch pike over 20 pounds is different from 75% (either higher or lower)? Use ? = 0.05. (a) What is the level of significance? State the null and alternate hypotheses. H0: p = 0.75; H1: p > 0.75H0: p ≠ 0.75; H1: p = 0.75 H0: p < 0.75; H1: p = 0.75H0: p = 0.75; H1: p ≠ 0.75H0: p = 0.75; H1: p < 0.75 (b) What sampling distribution will you use? The Student's t, since np > 5 and nq > 5.The standard normal, since np > 5 and nq > 5. The Student's t, since np < 5 and nq < 5.The standard normal, since np < 5 and nq < 5.

(c) Find the P-value of the test…A social psychologist records the number of outbursts in a smaple of different classrooms at a local school. Based on the statement below, what are the sample size, decision (retain or reject the null hyp), and effect size in this study? The number of outbursts among students at this local school (M = 3) was significantly less than that in the general population, t(39) = 4.19, p < .05 (d = 0.25)
- Solid fats are more likely to raise blood cholesterol levels than liquid fats. Suppose a nutritionist analyzed the percentage of saturated fat for a sample of 6 brands of stick margarine (solid fat) and for a sample of 6 brands of liquid margarine and obtained the following results: Stick:[25.5,26.7,26.5,26.6,26.3,26.4] Liquid:[16.5,17.1,17.5,17.3,17.2,16.7] We want to determine if there a significant difference in the average amount of saturated fat in solid and liquid fats. What is the test statistic? a) z = 39.604 b) t = 25.263 c) t = 39.604 d) z = 39.104 e) t = 39.104An airport official wants to prove that the proportion of delayed flights for Airline A (denoted as p1) is less than the proportion of delayed flights for Airline B (denoted as p2). Random samples for both airlines after a storm showed that 51 out of 200 flights for Airline A were delayed, while 60 out of 200 of Airline B's flights were delayed. The test statistic for this problem is -1.00. The p-value for the test statistic for this problem is: p = 0.0228 p = 0.0668 p = 0.3413 p = 0.1587The Youth Risk Behavior Survey (a study of public high school students) showed that 45 of 675 girls and 103 of 621 boys had been in a physical fight on school property one or more times during the past 12 months Using 5% significance, perform an appropriate test of hypothesis that the proportion of girlsinvolved in a physical fight on school property is less than the proportion of boys involved in a physical fight on school property.Step 1: H0: ________________ Ha: ____________________ Significance level α =0.05Step 2: Check necessary data conditions and compute an appropriate test statistic:Step 3: Compute corresponding p-value
- You are conducting a study to see if the proportion of voters who prefer the Democratic candidate is significantly larger than 50% at a level of significance of a = 0.10. According to your sample, 49 out of 92 potential voters prefer the Democratic candidate.Would you favor spending more federal tax money on the arts? Of a random sample of n1 = 204 women, r1 = 70 responded yes. Another random sample of n2 = 178 men showed that r2 = 48 responded yes. Does this information indicate a difference (either way) between the population proportion of women and the population proportion of men who favor spending more federal tax dollars on the arts? Use ? = 0.05. (a) What is the level of significance?State the null and alternate hypotheses. H0: p1 = p2; H1: p1 > p2H0: p1 = p2; H1: p1 < p2 H0: p1 = p2; H1: p1 ≠ p2H0: p1 < p2; H1: p1 = p2 (b) What sampling distribution will you use? What assumptions are you making? The standard normal.

The number of trials is sufficiently large.The Student's t. We assume the population distributions are approximately normal. What is the value of the sample…(1 point) According to a recent marketing campaign, 100 drinkers of either Diet Coke or Diet Pepsi participated in a blind taste test to see which of the drinks was their favorite. In one Pepsi television commercial, an anouncer states that "in recent blind taste tests, more than one half of the surveyed preferred Diet Pepsi over Diet Coke." Suppose that out of those 100, 42 preferred Diet Pepsi. Test the hypothesis, using a = 0.05 that more than half of all participants will select Diet Pepsi in a blind taste test by giving the following: (a) the test statistic (b) the critical z score
- 60 illiterate preschool children were randomly divided into four groups of 15 children. Each group used a different method to teach reading skills. Afterwards, reading skills were tested with the following results.Group X ̄i group Xi S2i 1 65 224 2 62 241 3 68 233 4 61 245 Test the null hypothesis that the methods are equally effective. Use a five percent significance level. Functions from excel or R should not be used to test this.The proportion of defective items is not allowed to be over 12%. A buyer wants to test whether the proportion of defectives in his shipment of 1000 items exceeds the allowable limit. The buyer takes a SRS of 100 items and finds that 19 are defective. State the null and alternative hypotheses for this test. Group of answer choices Ho: p = 0.12 vs Ha: p > 0.12 Ho: p = 0.19 vs Ha: p ≠ 0.12 Ho: p = 0.12 vs Ha: p < 0.19 Ho: p = 0.12 vs Ha: p = 0.19A Gallup poll to survey the top concerns of Americans was conducted. Suppose that 566 women and 465 men were independently and randomly selected and that 322 women and 172 men chose the state of the economy as their biggest concern. Can we conclude that the proportion of women ( p1 ), choosing the state of the economy as their biggest concern, exceeds the proportion of men ( p2 )? Use a significance level of α=0.1 for the test.
