In a large clinical trial, 390,256 children were randomly assigned to two groups. The treatment group consisted of 193,731 children given a vaccine for a certain disease, and 32 of those children developed the disease. The other 196,525 children were given a placebo, and 127 of those children developed the disease. Consider the vaccine treatment group to be the first sample. Complete parts (a) through (d) below. a.

Since an instant replay system for tennis was introduced at a major tournament, men challenged 1413 referee calls, with the result that 414 of the calls were overturned. Women challenged 754 referee calls, and 211 of the calls were overturned. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that men and women have equal success in challenging calls. Complete parts (a) through (c) below. Consider the first sample to be the sample of male tennis players who challenged referee calls and the second sample to be the sample of female tennis players who challenged referee calls.

Among drivers who have had a car crash in the last year, 110 were randomly selected and categorized by age, with the results listed in the table below. Age Under 25 25-44 45-64 Over 64 Drivers 44 24 15 27 If all ages have the same crash rate, we would expect (because of the age distribution of licensed drivers) the given categories to have 16%, 44%, 27%, 13% of the subjects, respectively. At the 0.05 significance level, test the claim that the distribution of crashes conforms to the distribution of ages. The test statistic is x²= The critical value is x² = The conclusion is OA. There is sufficient evidence to warrant the rejection of the claim that the distribution of crashes conforms to the distibuion of ages. OB. There is not sufficient evidence to warrant the rejection of the claim that the distribution of crashes conforms to the distibuion of ages.
Suppose that in a random selection of 100100 colored candies, 2323% of them are blue. The candy company claims that the percentage of blue candies is equal to 2525%. Use a 0.100.10 significance level to test that claim.
In the US, 45.1% of all people have type O blood, 40.9% have type A blood, 10.6% have type B blood and 3.4% have type AB blood. A researcher wants to see if the distribution of blood type is different for millionaires. The table below shows the results of a random sample of 3564 millionaires. What can be concluded at the αα = 0.10 significance level? Complete the table by filling in the expected frequencies.

In a large clinical trial, 395,241 children were randomly assigned to two groups. The treatment group consisted of 197,457 children given a vaccine for a certain disease, and 38 of those children developed the disease. The other 197,784 children were given a placebo, and 143 of those children developed the disease. Consider the vaccine treatment group to be the first sample. Complete parts (a) through (d) below. a.

An adventure company runs two obstacle courses, Fundash and Coolsprint, with similar designs. Since Fundash was built on rougher terrain, the designer of the courses suspects that the mean completion time of Fundash is greater than the mean completion time of Coolsprint. To test this, she selects 230 Fundash runners and 210 Coolsprint runners. (Consider these as independent random samples of the Fundash and Coolspring runners.) The 230 Fundash runners complete the course with a mean time of 77.9 minutes and a standard deviation of 6.6 minutes. The 210 individuals complete Coolsprint with a mean time of 76.6 minutes and a standard deviation of 7.3 minutes. Assume that the population standard deviations of the completion times can be estimated to be the sample standard deviations, since the samples that are used to compute them are quite large. At the 0.05 level of significance, is there enough evidence to support the claim that the mean completion time, U1, of Fundash is greater than…
