Past studies have indicated that the percentage of smokers was estimated to be about 32%. Given the new smoking cessation programs that have been implemented, you now believe that the percentage of smokers has reduced. You randomly surveyed 1836 people and found that 552 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. Write the result below, and be sure to round your final answer to two decimal places.e) Calculate your p-value. Write the result below, and be sure to round your final answer 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.

The recidivism rate for convicted sex offenders is 13%. A warden suspects that this percent is different if the sex offender is also a drug addict. Of the 309 convicted sex offenders who were also drug addicts, 31 of them became repeat offenders. What can be concluded at the a = 0.01 level of significance?

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.
