In the past, 37% of PBS (Public Broadcasting Station subscribers have accessed PBS-kids shows. A sample of 280 PBS subscribers in Fall 2020 showed that 115 of these had accessed PBS-kids shows. You want to test the claim that more than 37% of PBS subscriber are utilizing the PBS-kids shows during the Covid-19 pandemic, which was in full swing in Fall 2020.

Each year, more than 2 million people in the United States become infected with bacteria that are resistant to antibiotics. In particular, the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention have launched studies of drug-resistant gonorrhea.† Suppose that, of 189 cases tested in a certain state, 12 were found to be drug-resistant. Suppose also that, of 429 cases tested in another state, 8 were found to be drug-resistant. Do these data suggest a statistically significant difference between the proportions of drug-resistant cases in the two states? Use a 0.02 level of significance. (Let p1 = the population proportion of drug-resistant cases in the first state, and let p2 = the population proportion of drug resistant cases in the second state.) State the null and alternative hypotheses. (Enter != for ≠ as needed.) H0: ______ Ha: ______ Find the value of the test statistic. (Round your answer to two decimal places.) = What is the p-value? (Round your answer to four decimal places.) p-value =…
A researcher has access to 100 participants for an independent sample design study, and she is hoping to achieve power = .80.What effect size will her data need to achieve to make that possible?
A new drug is being proposed for the treatment of migraine headaches. Unfortunately, some users in early tests of the drug have reported mild nausea as a side effect. The FDA will reject the drug if it thinks that more than 15% of the population would suffer from this side effect. In an experiment to test this side effect, 400 people who suffer from migraine headaches receive the new drug and 80 of them report nausea as a side effect. Determine if the FDA should reject the drug using 5% level of significance. Provide the test statistic, critical value, and a conclusion in the box below.
A person with tuberculosis is given a chest x-ray. Four tuberculosis x-ray specialists examine each x-ray independently. If each specialist can detect tuberculosis 83% of the time when it is present, what is the probabilty that at least 1 of the specialists will detect a person positive.
A study published in JAMA in 2004 examined past results of other studies on bariatric surgery. Bariatric surgery is done to replace the size of the stomach in various ways. It is typically used on only obese patients, and one the traditional form of the surgery, gastric bypass has a 1% mortality (death) rate caused by surgery. However, in the studies reporting on the effects of the surgery on Type ll diabetes, 1417 of 1846 diabetic patients recovered completely from diabetes after surgery. These patients no longer need medication like insulin (which is injected into the skin) or pills to help manage blood sugar. In a study released a decade later, the percentage of patients who recover from diabetes has increased 80%. Using confidence intervals determine whether this is a significant change from the 2004 data. Use n=2000
A researcher took a random sample of 200 new mothers in the United States (Group 1) and found that 16% of them experienced some form of postpartum depression. Another random sample of 200 new mothers in France (Group 2), where mothers receive 16 weeks of paid maternity leave, found that 11% experienced some form of postpartum depression. Can it be concluded that the percent of women in the United States experience more postpartum depression than the percent of women in France? Use α=0.05. Select the correct alternative hypothesis and decision
Question 7 Immuno-oncologists wanted to examine whether combination therapy with nivolumab and ipilimumab improved survival in melanoma patients compared to treatment with ipilimumab alone. They plan to first obtain approval from the institutional review board, identify melanoma patients, randomly assign some patients to combination therapy and others to treatment with ipilimumab alone, and follow these patients a certain period of time to record their survival. This study is an example of (Choose one from choices given): O None of the choices are correct O Experimental design (aka: interventional) O Non-Experimental design (aka: observational O Survey design
Beryllium is an extremely lightweight metal that is used in many industries, such as aerospace and electronics. Long-term exposure to beryllium can cause people to become sensitized. Once an individual is sensitized, continued exposure can result in chronic beryllium disease, which involves scarring of the lungs. In a study of the effects of exposure to beryllium, workers were categorized by their duration of exposure (in years) and by their disease status (diseased, sensitized, or normal). The results were as follows: Duration of Exposure <1 1 to <5 ≥5 Diseased 14 13 18 Sensitized 11 20 15 Normal 78 140 209 Test the hypothesis of independence. Use the a=0.10 level of significance and the P-value method with the TI-84 Plus calculator. What do you conclude? State the null and alternate hypotheses.

You are conducting a hypothetical retrospective study on use of plastics and prevalence of current medical problems in students. You hypothesize that participants who used more plastic cups in high school will exhibit more medical problems today. You ask all PH1 students to recall how many times they drank out of plastic cups in high school. Your participants struggle to recall this information and end up guessing how often they used plastic drinking containers in high school. Your study design will be negatively impacted by: (select one) A. Misrepresentation B. Recall error C. Negative associations D. Recall bias
The World Health Organization declared the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak a global pandemic on March 11, 2020. How did population movement change before and after the COVID-19 pandemic was declared? The United States' Bureau of Transportation has collected data that can help answer this question. In this activity we will focus on traveling patterns in the state of New York during 2019 and the first three seasons of 2020. The dataset consists of variables for the state of New York including the month the data were collected, a season year label, and the number of trips less than 1 mile from one's home as measured by a mobile device's movement. A trip is defined as movements that include a stay of longer than 10 minutes at an anonymized location away from home. Movements with multiple stays of longer than 10 minutes before returning home are counted as multiple trips. The months January, February, and March are categorized as winter; the months April, May and June are categorized…
