Question Help ▼ In the June 2007 issue, Consumer Reports also examined the relative merits of top-loading and front-loading washing machines, testing samples of several different brands of each type. Suppose the study tested the null hypothesis that top- and front-loading machines don't differ in their mean costs, and the test had a P-value of 0.32. Would a 95% confidence interval for Pice -Hroet contain 0? Explain. Choose the correct answer below. O A. Yes. The high P-value means that we lack evidence of a difference, so 0 is a plausible value for Hon - Heeet OB. Yes. The high P-value means that we have evidence of a difference, so 0 is a plausible value for 4on -Hreet- OC. No. The high P-value means that we lack evidence of a difference, so 0 is not a plausible value for uon "Hrort O D. No. The high P-value means that we have evidence of a difference, so 0 is not a plausible value for uon "Htroet

Report an appropriate hypothesis test for a positive linear relationship and use a 5% significance level. Explain the potential error in words, in context. In the answer options below I have used the phrase “a certain relationship” because I don’t want to give away exactly what type of relationship it is. Group of answer choices We would be accepting that there was a certain relationship between Sale amount and Tip when actually there wasn’t. We would not be accepting that there was a certain relationship between Sale amount and Tip when indeed there wasn’t. We would not be accepting that there was a certain relationship between Sale amount and Tip when actually there was. We would be accepting that there was a certain relationship between Sale amount and Tip when indeed there was.
Russia has recently started a push for stronger smoking regulations much like those inWestern countries concerning cigarette advertising, smoking in public places, and soon. The DATAfile named Russia contains sample data on smoking habits of Russiansthat are consistent with those reported by the Wall Street Journal (the Wall StreetJournal, October 16, 2012). Analyze the data using Excel and answer the followingquestions.a. Develop a point estimate and a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of Russianswho smoke.b. Develop a point estimate and a 95% confidence interval for the mean annual per capitaconsumption (number of cigarettes) of a Russian.c. For those Russians who do smoke, estimate the number of cigarettes smoked per day.

Are they statistically different?
A trade magazine routinely checks the drive-through service times of fast-food restaurants. A 95% confidence interval that results from examining 734 customers in one fast-food chain's drive-through has a lower bound of 169.8 seconds and an upper bound of 173.4 seconds. What does this mean? Choose the correct answer below. O A. One can be % confident that the mean drive-through service time of this fast-food chain is between seconds and seconds. O B. There is a % probability that the mean drive-through service time of this fast-food chain is between seconds and seconds. O C. The mean drive-through service time of this fast-food chain is seconds % of the time. O D. One can be % confident that the mean drive-through service time of this fast-food chain is seconds.
In a study of the use of hypnosis to relieve pain, sensory ratings were measured for 8 subjects and the mean sensory ratings was found to be 2.8 and standard deviation to be 0.3. The sensory ratings are normally distributed. The 80% confidence interval for the mean sensory ratings of the population is (9.35,11.65) b. (3.58, 4.64) (2.65, 2.95) d. (3.09, 3.91) (6.27, 8.73) a.

Choose the appropriate statistical test. When computing, be sure to round each answer as indicated. A dentist wonders if depression affects ratings of tooth pain. In the general population, using a scale of 1-10 with higher values indicating more pain, the average pain rating for patients with toothaches is 6.8. A sample of 30 patients that show high levels of depression have an average pain rating of 7.1 (variance 0.8). What should the dentist determine? 1. Calculate the estimated standard error. (round to 3 decimals). [st.error] 2. What is thet-obtained? (round to 3 decimals). 3. What is the t-cv? (exact value) 4. What is your conclusion? Only type "Reject" or Retain"
I. Identify whether the conclusion is susceptible to a Type I error or a Type Il error (confidence level of 95%). Provide a justification for your answer. 1. Gong Di experimented on the effects of cursing on belief. He hypothesized that the more a person curses, the more people would believe in the power of the words being uttered. His p- value = 0.210. He decided that the null is false and should be rejected. 2. Difference between IQ scores of middle-aged Filipino men and women were measured. A p- value of 0.013 were found from comparing the difference of IQ scores between men and women. The researchers conclude that there was no significant difference between the IQ Scores of men and women.
Several years ago, 45% of parents who had children in grades K-12 were satisfied with the quality of education the students receive. A recent poll asked 1,025 parents who have children in grades K-12 if they were satisfied with the quality of education the students receive. Of the 1,025 surveyed, 484 indicated that they were satisfied. Construct a 99% confidence interval to assess whether this represents evidence that parents' attitudes toward the quality of education have changed.
A. True or False? A researcher compares the BMI of two populations of individuals from different socioeconomic backgrounds and finds that the proportion of individuals considered obese and from a poor background is .37 (n = 112), and the proportion of individuals considered obese and from an affluent background is .27 (n = 87); a 95% confidence interval for the risk difference for obesity among members of the poor population compared to the affluent population is (-0.03, 0.23). B. Why is it true or false?
In a study designed to determine whether there was a cluster of brain cancer cases at a Pratt & Whitney plant, record from 223,000 employees were studied and 723 employees with brain tumors were found. Treat those employees as a random sample and construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the proportion of all adults who develop such tumors. write a brief statement interpreting that confidence interval.
