in order to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of new rapid test for COVID-19 results of the screening test were compared to the Reference golden standard (PCR test) in 2000 individuals. from 120 individuals who tested negative by the rapid test. only 8 were found COVID-19 positive. from 1880 individuals who tested positive by the rapid test, 176 were found COVID-19 negative. the FP rate is equal to: 38.9% or 2.2% or 61.1% or 60%

A researcher randomly selected a sample of n = 500 individuals from a population with µ = 120 and administered an experimental treatment to the sample. What the researcher should expect if the treatment has no significant effect?
A new cream that advertises that it can reduce wrinkles and improve skin was subject to a recent study. A sample of 68 women over the age of 50 used the new cream for 6 months. Of those 68 women, 39 of them reported skin improvement(as judged by a dermatologist). Is this evidence that the cream will improve the skin of more than 40% of women over the age of 50? Test using a= 0.05 (a) Test statistic: z= (b) The final conclusion is...A. There is not sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis that p=0.4 . That is, there is not sufficient evidence to reject that the cream can improve the skin of more than 40% of women over 50.B. We can reject the null hypothesis that p=0.4 and accept that p>0.4. That is, the cream can improve the skin of more than 40% of women over 50.
A sample of 100 individuals has a mean depression score of 20 with an SD of 2. What is the standard error of depression for this sample?
Researchers wanted to test the hypothesis that living in the country is better for your lungs than living in a city. To eliminate the possible variation due to genetic dif- ferences, they located seven pairs of identical twins with one member of each twin living in the country, the other in a city. For each person, they measured the percentage of in- haled tracer particles remaining in the lungs after one hour: the higher the percentage, the less healthy the lungs. They found that for six of the seven twin pairs the one living in the country had healthier lungs. Based on the sample size and distance between the null value and the observed proportion, estimate the strength of evidence: inconclusive, weak but suggestive, moder- ately strong, strong, or overwhelming.
The recommended daily dietary allowance for zinc among males older than age 50 years is 15 mg/day. An article reports the following summary data on intake for a sample of males age 65-74 years: n = 115, x = 12.7, and s = 6.84. Does this data indicate that average daily zinc intake in the population of all males age 65-74 falls below the recommended allowance? (Use a = :0.05.)
How many stomach cancer patients and controls would be required to estimate the difference in proportion of patients with sufficient concentrations of plasma antioxidant vitamins with a margin of error not exceeding 5% using a 95% CI? The data in table 8-2 were reported recently from a similar study investigating the sufficiency of plasma antioxidant vitmians in throat cancer patients.
The Energy Information Administration reported that 51.7% of homes in the United States were heated by natural gas. A random sample of 198 homes found that 115 were heated by natural gas. Does the evidence support the claim, or has the percentage changed? Useα =0.10 and the P-value method. Use a TI-83 Plus/TI-84 Plus
Suppose that the prevalence of breast cancer in a certain population of women is 0.30. Assume that the sensitivity of a mammogram to detect breast cancer is 0.83, and the specificity of a mammogram is 0.90. What is the predictive value positive for this test, in this population?
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 = 0.01? Because the P-value of 0.0176 > a…
