Pharmacist lara was developing a new drug to lower blood pressure and performed an experiment to try to demonstrate its effectiveness. lara performed an appropriate hypothesis test with the error probabilities α=0.05, and got out p-value = 0.03 . Suppose now that we know the truth (which we do not do under normal circumstances) and that the drug actually works (the drug works). Each of the following statements is true: accept the null hypothesis and e works accept the null hypothesis e. does not work e. type II error e. neither e. type I error

A decade old study found that the proportion of high school seniors who felt that getting rich was an important personal goal was 69%. Suppose that we have reason to believe that this proportion has changed, and we wish to carry out a hypothesis test to see if our belief can be supported. State the null hypothesis H o and the alternative hypothesis H 1 that we would use for this test. H o: H 1:
It is clairmeu that the proportion of high school students in the United States who use computers for educational purposes is at most 72%. Suppose that we have reason to believe otherwise and wish to carry out a hypothesis test for this claim. State the null hypothesis H, and the alternative hypothesis H, that we would use for this test. H, :0 H, :0 O
You are testing the null hypothesis µ=30 versus the two tailed alternative. You fail to reject the null hypothesis. If in reality, µ does equal 30, you have made a: Type I error Type II error Correct Decision
A presidential candidate claims that the proportion of college students who are registered to vote in the upcoming election is at least 64%. Suppose that we want to sample a number of college students and carry out a hypothesis test to see if this daim may be refuted. State the null hypothesis H, and the alternative hypothesis H, that we would use for this test. H: 0 H;: 0 A OSO D=0
You may need to use the appropriate technology to answer this question. Suppose a certain state university's college of business obtained the following results on the salaries of a recent graduating class: Finance Majors Business Analytics Majors n1 = 140 n2 = 30 x1 = $48,337 x2 = $55,217 s1 = $19,000 s2 = $10,000 (a) Formulate hypotheses so that, if the null hypothesis is rejected, we can conclude that salaries for Finance majors are significantly lower than the salaries of Business Analytics majors. Use ? = 0.05. (Let ?1 = the population mean salary for Finance majors, and let ?2 = the population mean salary for Business Analytics majors. Enter != for ≠ as needed.)

A well-known brokerage firm executive claimed that at least 86 % of investors are currently confident of meeting their investment goals. An XYZ Investor Optimism Survey, conducted over a two week period, found that out of 61 randomly selected people, 50 of them said they are confident of meeting their goals.Suppose you are have the following null and alternative hypotheses for a test you are running:H0:p=0.86Ha:p≠0.86Calculate the test statistic, rounded to 3 decimal places
Robert, a starting player for a major college basketball team, made only 38.4% of his free-throws in previous seasons. During the summer, he worked on developing a softer shot in hopes of improving his free throw accuracy. In the first eight games of the season, Robert made 25 free throws of 40 (or 62.5%). We wish to test if the practice helped. Which of the following are the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses, letting p denote his new free-throw shooting probability The null hypothesis is H0: ["", "", "", ""] The alternative hypothesis is Ha:

You watch people exiting Dodgers stadium after a game and you write down the number of males and the number of females that exit the stadium past you during the 20 minutes that you spend watching. You assumed that there would be a perfectly equal number of males and females attending a Dodgers game, but you look at the number of males and females that you actually counted, and you see if you still think that is actually true. What kind of hypothesis test would allow you to do this? a. One-Factor, Independent-Measures ANOVA b. Two-Factor ANOVA c. Correlation/Regression d. Chi-Square Goodness of Fit

(b) A t-test has two possible outcomes: reject or do not reject the null hypothesis. Suppose the null hypothesis is true. If the null hypothesis is rejected, the result is statistically significant, which would be a Type I error; if the null hypothesis is not rejected, the result is not statistically significant, which would not be a Type I error. Let S represent a statistically significant result, and let Nrepresent a result that is not statistically significant. (i) If P(S)=0.05, what is the value of P(N) ?
