In a recent study, 100 males used a new weight-loss supplement, and 70 of them experienced weight loss after two weeks. In the same study, 50 females used the same supplement, and 41 of them experienced weight loss after two weeks. Fill in the blanks of the statement below to make the statement the most reasonable possible. The new weight-loss supplement was less effective on ? in the study because % of them failed to lose weight after two weeks, whereas onlyO% of the ? v failed to lose weight after two weeks.

A certain affects virus 0.8% of the population. A test used to detect the virus in a person is positive 88% of the time if the person has the virus (true positive) and 13% of the time if the person does not have the virus (false postive). Fill out the remainder of the following table and use it to answer the two questions below. (enter answer with no commas, i.e. as 1000 not 1,000.) Infected Not Infected Total Positive Test [a] [b] [c] Negative Test [d] [e] [f] Total 800 99,200 100,000 i) Find the probability that a person has the virus given that they have tested positive. (Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a percent and do not include a percent sign.)[g]_______ % ii) Find the probability that a person does not have the virus given that they test negative. (Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a percent and do not include a percent sign.)[h]________ %
AD (Alzheimer's disease) causes progressive cognitive impairment. A diagnostic blood test for AD was proposed. An evaluation of the blood text involved fifty known AD patients and forty control who did not have AD. Of those who had AD, forty eight tested positive on the blood test and two tested negative. Of those without AD, three tested positive on the blood test and thirty seven tested negative. g. What is the NPV? Use this in a sentence explaining to a person what their negative test results suggests.
Seven percent of those who invest in mutual funds consider corporate stocks to be “very safe”, 58% consider them “relatively safe”, 24% consider them “not very safe”, 4% consider them “not safe” and 7% "They are not safe at all." Business / Week / Harris asked 550 mutual fund investors how they would rate corporate bonds for safety. The answers were the following Seguridad Frecuencia Very safe 62 Relatively safe 323 Not very safe 76 Not safe 26 Not safe at all 63 Does the attitude of mutual fund investors differ from corporate bonds from their attitude to corporate stocks? Support your conclusion by giving a statistical test. Use α = 0.01. For this problem you must present: -Hypothesis-Result of the expected values, residuals and the calculation of the test statistic.-Analysis of the results in the chi square test and its conclusion in applied terms of the problem
In a study of pain relievers, 20 people were given product A, and 15 experienced relief. In the same study, 100 people were given product B, and 59 experienced relief. Fill in the blanks below to make the most reasonable statement possible. Product (Choose one) performed worse in the study. That is because % failed to get relief with this product, whereas only% failed to get relief with Product (Choose one) ▼ B X S
According to a report, 62.8% of murders are committed with a firearm. (a) If 100 murders are randomly selected, how many would we expect to be committed with a firearm? (b) Would it be unusual to observe 73 murders by firearm in a random sample of 100 murders? Why? (a) We would expect to be committed with a firearm. (b) Choose the correct answer below. A. Yes, because 73 is greater than u + 20. B. No, because 73 is less than u - 20. C. Yes, because 73 is between u - 20 and u + 20. D. No, because 73 is between u - 20 and u + 20. E. No, because 73 is greater than u + 20.

A study found that 13% of Americans have seen or sensed the presence of an angel. A contingent doubts that the percent is really that high. It conducts its own survey. Out of 76 Americans surveyed, only two had seen or sensed the presence of an angel. As a result of the contingent's survey, would you agree with the study? What is the p-value?
Maddie conducts a study to see if listening to music helps students learn math. She surveys a random sample of 250 college sophomores who completed a math class within the past six months. She asks them to indicate how frequently they listened to music while studying math. The students also report their final grade in the math class at the end of the semester. Select the statement below that is false. There is no placebo in this study. Maddie conducted an observational study. A confounding variable could be how often the participants studied math. The population Maddie studied was 250 college sophomores.
A psychologist wanta to determine the effect of relaxing music on a person's reaction to a stressful event. Participants were randomly assigned to one of three groups. A participant was brought into a room with no windows and only one door. In the background, either soft classical music, or no music at all was playing. After a set amount of time, a fire alarm went off, and smoke started to come from under the door. A hidden video camera records the participants behavior that is later scored by the experimenter for level of panic from 0-100. Which statistical test would be best to determine if there is a significant difference between groups? One sample t test Dependent samples t test Independent t test ANOVA
In a series of studies, Sebastian Deri and his colleagues (2017) asked multiple groups about the number of friend groups they had and how often they attended different social events. They then asked participants how they thought their own numbers compared to other people's: Did participants see themselves as less social, the same as, or more social than others? In the first study, the researchers reported that: "Three hundred four participants from Amazon's Mechanical Turk (150 women; Mage = 37.1; 78% White, 10% Black, and 6% Asian) completed a survey in exchange for modest payment" (p. 860). What do the researchers mean by "Amazon's Mechanical Turk" with respect to their sample of participants? O A. An archival data set that already exists and from which researchers can use data O B. An online tool that researchers can use to recruit people to participate in research in exchange for a small payment O C. An e-book sold by Amazon that includes contact information for possible…
A report described teens' attitudes about traditional media, such as TV, movies, and newspapers. In a representative sample of American teenage girls, 42% said newspapers were boring. In a representative sample of American teenage boys, 45% said newspapers were boring. Sample sizes were not given in the report. A button hyperlink to the SALT program that reads: Use SALT. (a) Suppose that the percentages reported had been based on a sample of 50 girls and 40 boys. Is there convincing evidence that the proportion of those who think that newspapers are boring is different for teenage girls and boys? Carry out a hypothesis test using ? = 0.05. (Use pgirls − pboys.) Find the test statistic. (Round your answer to two decimal places.) z = Find the P-value. (Round your answer to four decimal places.) P-value = State your conclusion. Reject H0. We do not have convincing evidence that the proportion of girls who say that newspapers are boring is different from the proportion of boys who…
