Previously, 4% of mothers smoked more than 21 cigarettes during their pregnancy. An obstetrician believes that the percentage of mothers who smoke 21 cigarettes or more is less than 4% today. She randomly selects 140 pregnant mothers and finds that 2 of them smoked 21 or more cigarettes during pregnancy. Test the researcher's statement at the a = 0.1 level of significance. What are the null and alternative hypotheses? Họ: P = 0.04 versus H,: P < 0.04 (Type integers or decimals. Do not round.) Because npo (1- Po) -0 < 10, the normal model may not be used t approximate the P-value. (Round to one decimal place as needed.)

Past studies have indicated that the percentage of smokers was estimated to be about 34%. Given the new smoking cessation programs that have been implemented, you now believe that the percentage of smokers has reduced. You randomly surveyed 1708 people and found that 544 smoke. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the percentage of smokers has reduced.a) Identify the null and alternative hypotheses?H0H0: H1H1: b) What type of hypothesis test should you conduct (left-, right-, or two-tailed)? left-tailed right-tailed two-tailed c) Identify the appropriate significance level.d) Calculate your test statistic (Use ˆpp^ rounded to 4 decimal places). Write the result below, and round your test statistic to 4 decimal places.e) Calculate your p-value. Write the result below, rounded to four decimal places.f) Do you reject the null hypothesis? We reject the null hypothesis, since the p-value is less than the significance level. We reject the…
Suppose 206 subjects are treated with a drug that is used to treat pain and 54 of them developed nausea. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that more than 20% of users develop nausea. Identify the null and alternative hypotheses for this test. Choose the correct answer below. OA. Ho: p=0.20 H₁: p0.20 OC. Ho:p>0.20 H₁: p=0.20 OD. Ho: p=0.20 H₁: p0.20 Identify the test statistic for this hypothesis test. The test statistic for this hypothesis test is (Round to two decimal places as needed.) Identify the P-value for this hypothesis test. The P-value for this hypothesis test is (Round to three decimal places as needed.) Identify the conclusion for this hypothesis test. A. Fail to reject Ho. There is sufficient evidence to warrant support of the claim that more than 20% of users develop nausea. OB. Fail to reject Ho.

The recidivism rate for convicted sex offenders is 11%. A warden suspects that this percent is different if the sex offender is also a drug addict. Of the 337 convicted sex offenders who were also drug addicts, 30 of them became repeat offenders. What can be concluded at the a = 0.10 level of significance? For this study, we should use Select an answer The null and alternative hypotheses would be: Ho: ? ✓ Select an answer H₁: ? ✓ Select an answer (please enter a decimal) (Please enter a decimal) The test statistic ? ✓ = The p-value = The p-value is? ♥ α Based on this, we should [Select an answer the null hypothesis. Thus, the final conclusion is that ... (please show your answer to 3 decimal places.) (Please show your answer to 4 decimal places.) O The data suggest the population proportion is not significantly different from 11% at a = 0.10, so there is statistically insignificant evidence to conclude that the population proportion of convicted sex offender drug addicts who become…
In a recent poll 1049 randomly selected adults were asked whether they approve of labor unions; 62% said yes. In 1936, about 65% of adults approved of labor unions. At the 1% significance level, do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the percentage of adults who approve of labor unions has decreased since 1936? Use the one-proportion z-test to perform the appropriate hypothesis test, after checking the conditions for the procedure. What are the hypotheses for the one-proportion z-test? Ho: p=D: Hạ: p U (Type integers or decimals.) What is the test statistic? z= (Round to two decimal places as needed.) Identify the critical value(s). (Round to three decimal places as needed.) What is the correct conclusion for the hypothesis test? O A. Do not reject Ho; the data do not provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the percentage of adults who approve of labor unions has decreased since 1936. O B. Reject Hn; the data do provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the…
A newsletter publisher believes that less than 36%36% of their readers own a laptop. For marketing purposes, a potential advertiser wants to confirm this claim.

USA Today reported that about 47% of the general consumer population in the United States is loyal to the automobile manufacturer of their choice. Suppose Chevrolet did a study of a random sample of 1007 Chevrolet owners and found that 482 said they would buy another Chevrolet. Does this indicate that the population proportion of consumers loyal Chevrolet is more than 47%? Use a = 0.01. (a) What is the level of significance? State the null and alternate hypotheses. O Ho: P = 0.47; H,: p 0.47 O Ho: p > 0.47; H,: p = 0.47 O Ho: p = 0.47; H1: p + 0.47 (b) What sampling distribution will you use? O The Student's t, since np 5 and ng > 5. O The standard normal, since np 5 and ng > 5. What is the value of the sample test statistic? (Round your answer to two decimal places.) (c) Find the P-value of the test statistic. (Round your answer to four decimal places.) Sketch the sampling distribution and show the area corresponding to the P-value.
Previously, 12.1% of workers had a travel time to work of more than 60 minutes. An urban economist believes that the percentage has increased since then. She randomly selects 80 workers and finds that 18 of them have a travel time to work that is more than 60 minutes. Test the economist's belief at the x = 0.1 level of significance. What are the null and alternative hypotheses? P = 0.121 versus H1: p Ho: p (Type integers or decimals. Do not round.) > 0.121 Because npo (1- Po) = < 10, the normal model may not be used to approximate the P-value. (Round to one decimal place as needed.)
