In a clinical trial of the effectiveness of echinacea for preventing colds, the results in the table below were obtained. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that getting a cold is independent of the treatment group. What do results suggest about the effectiveness of echinacea as a prevention against colds?

An owner of an ice cream shop wants to investigate whether a new training program affects the scooping skills of ice cream shop employees. To assess this, the owner divides employees into two groups: those who receive training (CT) and those who do not (NT). The owner evaluates their scooping skills using a scooping proficiency test. The dataset includes the test scores of the NT (no training) group: 15.00, 7.00, 18.00, 10.00, 6.00, and 20.00, and the CT (trained) group: 15.00, 10.00, 14.00, 7.00, 21.00, and 21.00. The owner is aware of the known population mean for scooping proficiency, which is 20. The hypothesis is that employees who did not receive training (NT) will likely have lower scooping proficiency than the population mean. To investigate this hypothesis, the owner conducts a one-sample t-test with a significance level (alpha) set at 0.05. The objective is to determine if the mean scooping proficiency of the NT group is significantly different from the established population…
This question refers to excavations at a national monument. One question the archaeologists asked was: Is raw material used by prehistoric Indians for stone tool manufacture independent of the archaeological excavation site? Two different excavation sites gave the information in the following table. Use a chi-square test with 5% level of significance to test the claim that raw material used for construction of stone tools and excavation site are independent. Stone Tool Construction Material Material Site B Row Total Basalt 768 547 1315 Obsidian 101 94 195 Pedernal chert Other Column Total 536 499 1035 179 1496 1228 2724 (a) What is the level of significance?

Four brands of lightbulbs are being considered for use in the final assembly area of the Ford F-150 truck plant in Dearborn, Michigan. The director of purchasing asked for samples of 100 from each manufacturer. The numbers of acceptable and unacceptable bulbs from each manufacturer are shown below. At the .05 significance level, is there a difference in the quality of the bulbs? (Round your answers to 3 decimal places.) H0: There is no relationship between quality and manufacturer. H1: There is a relationship. 1. Reject H0 if X2 >____ 2. X2 = ____ (Reject or Do Not Reject) H0. Ther (is a/is no) relationship between quality and manufacturer.

Individual actions can play a large role in the overall health of our planet. A researcher interested in evaluating environment friendly behaviors evaluated how often people recycle (per month) based on whether they have an overall optimistic or an overall pessimistic attitude toward eco-friendly behaviors. The results from this hypothetical study are given in the table. Test whether or not recycling behaviors differed between groups using a .05 level of significance. State the value of the test statistics and the decision to retain or reject the null hypothesis. Compute effect size using eta- squared (n^2).

The General Social Survey (GSS) collects data on demographics, eduction and work, among many other characteristics of US residents. Suppose we want to estimate the difference between the average number of hours worked by all Americans with a college degree and those without a college degree. Is there sufficient evidence that there is a significant difference between the average number of hours worked by those Americans with a college degree vs. those Americans without a college degree? Use the following output: Welch Two Sample t-testdata: yes and not = 3.1181, df = 1098.5, p-value = 0.001867alternative hypothesis: true difference in means is not equal to 095 percent confidence interval: 1.011652 4.445822sample estimates:mean of x mean of y 42.81574 40.08701 Using the provided output, find the 95% confidence interval for the difference of the average amount of hours worked for those that have a college degree vs. those that do not have a college degree (ie: for the difference of two…
K Winning team data were collected for teams in different sports, with the results given in the accompanying table. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that home/visitor wins are independent of the sport. Given that among the four sports included here, baseball is the only sport in which the home team can modify field dimensions to favor its own players, does it appear that baseball teams are effective in using this advantage? Click the icon to view the data table. Determine the null and alternative hypotheses. Choose the correct answer below. OA. Ho: The home/visitor win is independent of the sport. H₁: The home/visitor win is not independent of the sport. OB. Ho: Basketball games are not more likely to win at home than any other sport. H₁: Basketball games are more likely to win at home than any other sport. OC. Ho: The home/visitor win is dependent on the sport. H₁: The home/visitor win is not dependent on the sport. OD.
