In one trip of the Royal Caribbean cruise ship Freedom of the Seas, 168 of the 698 passengers became ill with Norovirus. At about the same time, 118 of the 455 passengers on the Queen Elizabeth II cruise ship became ill with Norovirus. Treat the sample results as simple random samples from large populations. Test the claim that the rate of Norovirus illness on Freedom of the Seas is less than the rate on the Queen Elizabeth II at the.10 significance level. The test statistic is: [Select] The range of the P-value is: [Select] Based on this we: Select] Conclusion There [Select ] appear to be enough evidence to support the claim that the rate of Norovirus illness on Freedom of the Seasis less than the rate on the Queen Elizabeth II.

Colorectal surgery is associated with a high rate of surgical site infection (SSI). Complications arising from SSI significantly increase an individual's length of hospital stay, reduce quality of life, and can also lead to additional health care needs. Outcomes of 2,919 colorectal surgeries were collected for research, including age and whether an individual developed a surgical site infection. Medical researchers would like to use this sample data to learn about health outcomes for colorectal surgery. One question medical researchers were hoping to answer is whether the difference in the ages of colorectal surgery patients who develop SSI and those who do not is too great to have resulted from sampling error alone. Perform a two-sample t-test for comparing two population means to answer this question.
The Ahmadi Corporation wants to increase the productivity of its line workers. Four different programs have been suggested to help increase productivity. Twenty employees, making up a sample, have been randomly assigned to one of the four programs and their output for a day's work has been recorded. You are given the results below. At 95% confidence, conduct the ANOVA test to determine whether there is a significant difference in the mean output under the four programs.

In a random sample of males, it was found that 23 write with their left hands and 225 do not. In a random sample of females, it was found that 59 write with their left hands and 470 do not. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the rate of left-handedness among males is less than that among females.
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 1991, a person was working as an engineer at a paper company when they were laid off in round 2 of several rounds of layoffs by the company. This person sued the company for age discrimination. The engineer claimed that the laid off workers were older than others. The age of randomly selected 10 workers who were laid off and not lay off in round 2 are given below. Test the engineer's claim at 1% level of significance. Note that the data for two samples are in different column.

A national organization that conducts research on the cost and quality of health care in the U.S. reported that, in 2012, U.S. families spent an average of $9,590 on health care expenses. Suppose you decide to test whetherthe average in 2015 is greater than the average in 2012. After conducting the appropriate statistical test, you find a P-value of 0.022. If the level of significance is 0.05, which of the following is the best interpretation of the P-value? a. The P-value of 0.022 indicates that there is a 2.2% chance that the 2015 average is greater than the average amount spent in 2012.b. The P-value of 0.022 provides weak evidence that the average in 2015 average is greater than the average amount spent in 2012.c. The P-value of 0.022 provides strong evidence that the 2015 average is greater than the average amount spent in 2012.d. The P-value of 0.022 indicates that there is a very low probability that the 2015 average is different than average amount spent in 2012.
Acne is a common skin disease that affects most adolescents and can continue into adulthood. A study compared the effectiveness of three acne treatments and a placebo, all in gel form, applied twice daily for 12 weeks. The study's 517 teenage volunteers were randomly assigned to one of the four treatments. Success was assessed as clear or almost clear skin at the end of the 12 week period. The results of the study can be seen in the table below. Using the appropriate statistical test, determine if there is significant evidence that the four treatments perform differently. If so, how do they compare.

In the previous year, 40% of women over the age of fifty had regularly scheduled mammograms. Following last year's test, a campaign was initiated to encourage women to be tested regularly. This year, a cancer research group surveys a random sample of 450 women, and 195 respond affirmatively. With a 5% significance level, test to see if the campaign was effective.
