In an experiment, you flipped a coin 3 times and the result was (H,H,H). You have 2 hypotheses. The first one is that the coin is fair (the probability of the coin landing heads is equal to 0.5). The second hypothesis is that the coin is biased and that the probability of landing heads is 0.75. What is the Bayes factor in favor of hypothesis 2 relative to hypothesis 1

In a recent Super Bowl, a TV network predicted that 33 % of the audience would express an interest in seeing one of its forthcoming television shows. The network ran commercials for these shows during the Super Bowl. The day after the Super Bowl, and Advertising Group sampled 146 people who saw the commercials and found that 45 of them said they would watch one of the television shows.

A fair coin is flipped 80 times, and it turns up heads 30 times. You want to test the hypothesis that the coin does not turn up heads one-half of the time. Pick the correct null hypothesis. i. H0 : p = 3/8 ii .H0 : p = 1/2 iii. H0 : ˆp = 3/8 iv. H0 : ˆp = 1/2
A consumer magazine wants to figure out which of two major airlines lost a higher proportion of luggage on international flights. The magazine surveyed Standard Air (population 1) and Down Under airlines (population 2). Standard Air lost 45 out of 600 bags. Down Under airlines lost 30 of 500 bags. Does Standard Air have a higher population proportion of lost bags on international flights? Which of the following is the correct competing hypotheses?
