Scientists at a pharmaceutical company want to compare their new drug to an existing one. Let's call the new drug A and the old drug B. In a random sample of 120 subjects who took drug A, 40% developed sever side effects. Whereas, in a random sample of 100 subjects who took drug B, 45% developed severe side effects. These scientists are interested to see if there is significant evidence that their new drug reduces severe side effects in patients the a = 0.05 significance level.

An article published in the American Journal of Hypertension reported the results of a longitudinal study on blood pressure. Ten years ago, 51 out of 188 people evaluated were classified as having high blood pressure. This year, 63, out of 194 people evaluated were classified as having high blood pressure. Based on the results of this study, can one conclude that the proportion of people in the population with high blood pressure has increased in the last ten years? Use a = 0.05. I can't find the sign=a I hope someone will know what I am talking about.
You take a survey that is supposed to measure whether you are an extrovert or not. The score you get on the extrovert survey is a z-score of 2.0. What does that mean about your level of extraversion compared to the average score?
You are a researcher who wants to know what the mean (µ) level of anxiety would be for the whole population if they were all receiving a new anti-anxiety therapy. You can’t give the therapy to the whole population, so you give it to a sample, and you get M = 32.1 as the average anxiety level for the sample on the therapy. What is the reason that you can’t just simply assume that µ = 32.1? You didn’t use random assignment Sampling error Descriptive statistics Inferential statistics
In addition to therapy, anti-depressant drugs are used in the treatment of depression. The data below are from a study comparing two anti-depressant drugs. A baseline measurement for symptomatic behavior for depression is taken. After treatment with medication, another measurement taken. The data given in the table is for improvement which is for the reduction in symptomatic behavior.
You are supervising a clinical trial of a medicine that appears to have a serious side effect in about 5 % of patients. To determine the magnitude of the side effect to within 1 %, e.g. 5 +/- 1 %, how big does the clinical trial have to be? Show your work/how you figure it out.
On average, a sample of n = 36 scores will provide a better estimate of the population mean than a sample of n = 49 scores from the same population.
A pharmaceutical company wanted to study the effectiveness of a new hair growth product in women. It recruited 1100 random women from the L.A. area and measured the length of their hair. They gave 500 women the new product in unmarked bottles to use over a 6-month period. The other 600 women received unmarked bottles with mostly water and fragrance to use over a 6-month period. None of the women knew which product they received. They found that 450 out of 500 women that received the new product showed hair growth of 1-2 inches. Only 90 out of 600 women that used the water/fragrance combination showed hair growth of 1-2 inches. Women who received the treatment are Blank %/ blank % = Blank times to show hair growth.
As humans we consume food. The body extracts good things such as proteins and vitamins and throws away waste. A typical waste product is uric acid. High levels of uric acid can be an indication of conditions such as gout, kidney disease, and cancer. For females a high level of uric acid is 6 mg/dL or more and for males a high level of uric acid is 7 mg/dL or more. Suppose, over a period of months, an adult female was given 5 blood tests for uric acid. The results of each blood test are shown below. results 6.75 6.68 12.07 10.29 6.68 The distribution of uric acid in healthy adult females is normally distributed with known population standard deviation, σ=2.09σ=2.09 mg/dl.Find a 95% confidence interval for the population mean of uric acid in this adult female's blood.

You are concerned that nausea may be a side effect of Tamiflu, but you cannot just give Tamiflu to patients with the flu and say that nausea is a side effect if people become nauseous. This is because nausea is common for people who have the flu. From past studies you know that about 30% of people who get the flu experience nausea. You collected data on 1744 patients who were taking Tamiflu to relieve symtoms of the flu, and found that 572 experienced nausea. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that the percentage of people who take Tamiflu for the relief of flu symtoms and experience nausea is greater than 30%.a) Identify the null and alternative hypotheses?�0: �1: 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.

A researcher is studying two types of medication that both treat hives. 23 out of the random sample of 270 adults given medication A still had hives 30 minutes after taking the medication. 15 out of another random sample of 300 adults given medication B still had hives 30 minutes after taking the medication. Test to see if the proportion of people who still had hives after medicine A is different than the proportion of people who still had hives after medicine B. Use a 0.01 level of significance. The correct hypotheses are: Ho:PA PB (claim) Ho :PA PB H A:PA < PB (claim) Но :РА На :РА # рв (claim) = PB Since the level of significance is 0.01 the critical value is 2.576 and -2.576 The test statistic is: 1.684 x (round to 3 places) The p-value is: 0.092 x (round to 3 places) The decision can be made to:
A personal trainer wanted to test the effectiveness of two different workout routines. She took a random sample of 70 of her clients and, in a random order, had them complete one of the two routines for two weeks. Then, after a one-month waiting period, she asked them to come back and do the other routine for two weeks. After each two-week period of the exercise routines, she measured their performance on a physical fitness aptitude test. She found the average difference in aptitude scores between the two routines for each client was 30.4 with a standard error of 3.2. What would be her 85% confidence interval for the average difference in the effectiveness of the two routines? (3 decimal places) ( , )
PLEASE HELP ME ANSWER THIS QUESTION IMMEDIATELY Ali has recently started a new job on the sales team of a very competitive corporation. He closed the business for an average of RM108 with a standard variation of RM12 in a sample of 16 sales calls. At 5% significance, compare the population mean of at least RM100 against the alternative of less than RM100. According to company regulation, new members of the sales force must earn more than RM100 per contract during their trial period. Can we infer that Ali accomplished this condition at the 95 percent level of significance?
