According to the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) sponsored by the U.S. government, a random sample of 712 males between 20 and 29 years of age and a random sample of 1,001 males over the age of 75 were chosen and the weight of each of the males were recorded (in kg). Do the data provide evidence that the younger male population weighs more (on average) than the older male population? Use “Y” for ages 20-29 and “S” for ages 75+. It was found that x̅Y=83.4, sY=18.7, x̅S=78.5, and sS=19.0. a)Suppose the test statistic is t = 2.398. What is the associated p-value? Group of answer choices 0.001 < p-value < 0.002 0.005 < p-value < 0.01 0.01 < p-value < 0.02 0.0005 < p-value < 0.001 b) Suppose the p-value is 0.02 < p-value < 0.04. At α = 0.10 what is the appropriate conclusion to make? Group of answer choices Fail to reject H0 and conclude that the mean weight of all males ages 20-29 is greater than the mean weight of all…
According to previous studies, the mean distance each visitor in Greenspan National Park hikes during their visit is 30 kilometers. The park recently closed its shuttle system, which used to transport hikers to many of the park's most popular hiking trails. Because of this, an administrator at the park suspects the mean distance, u, is now less than 30 kilometers. The administrator chooses a random sample of 45 visitors. The mean distance hiked for the sample is 27.2 kilometers. Assume the population standard deviation is 9.9 kilometers. Can the administrator conclude that the mean distance hiked by each visitor is now less than 30 kilometers? Perform a hypothesis test, using the 0.10 level of significance. (a) State the null hypothesis H, and the alternative hYpothesis H,. O
Clothes dried outside smell better than those dried in a dryer because of a process called photolysis. Sunlight breaks down compounds that cause odor. A trained smeller is asked to smell a random sample of 20 towels. The smeller does not know it, but all of the 20 towels have been dried in the sun. The smeller is blindfolded and is not allowed to touch the towels but leans forward to smell the towel then rates the towel on a smell-scale of 1 to 10, where 1 is the an extremely unpleasant smell and 10 is a very good smell. A smell rating of 8 is typically attributed to a towel that is dried in the dryer. The mean smell rating for these 20 towels is approximately normal with a mean of 8.45 and the standard deviation is 0.887. A statistician performs a test of Ho μ = 8 versus H₁ μ> 8 where is the true mean smell rating for all towels dried in the sun. This test yields a P-value of 0.0176. What conclusion would you make at the significance level a = 0.05? Because the P-value of 0.0176 < α =…
A genetics engineer was attempting to cross a tiger and a cheetah. She predicted a phenotypic outcome of the traits she was observing to be in the following ratio: 4 stripes only: 3 spots only: 9 both stripes and spots. When the cross was performed and she counted the individuals she found 50 with stripes only, 41 with spots only and 85 with both. According to the Chi-square test, did she get the predicted outcome?
