Suppose a hypothesis test was performed with a level of significance of 0.05. Then if the null hypothesis is actually true, then there is a 5% chance that the researcher will end up rejecting the null hypothesis in error. True False
If a null hypothesis is rejected at the 0.05 level of significance, it must be rejected at the 0.01 level. True or False?
If the p-value found in an experiment is 0.85. We reject the null hypothesis. True False
When a null hypothesis is rejected, the test is said to be "statistically significant." If aresearcher reports a statistically significant test at the 1% significance level, can we concludethat it would have been significant at the 5% level? Clearly explain your answer.
A USA Today article claims that the proportion of people who believe global warming is a serious issue is 0.63, but given the number of people you've talked to about this same issue, you believe it is less than 0.63. The hypotheses for this test are Null Hypothesis: p ≥ 0.63, Alternative Hypothesis: p < 0.63. If you randomly sample 20 people and 12 of them believe that global warming is a serious issue, what is your test statistic and p-value? Question 3 options: 1) Test Statistic: 0.278, P-Value: 0.391 2) Test Statistic: 0.278, P-Value: 0.609 3) Test Statistic: -0.278, P-Value: 0.782 4) Test Statistic: -0.278, P-Value: 0.391 5) Test Statistic: -0.278, P-Value: 0.609
It is more difficult to reject a null hypothesis if we use a 10% level of significance compared with a 5% level of significance. True or False
If you use a 0.05 level of significance in a two-tail hypothesis test, what decision will you make if ZSTAT = -0.76? If you use a 0.05 level of significance in a two-tail hypothesis test, what decision will you make if ZSTAT = +2.21? If you use a 0.10 level of significance in a two-tail hypothesis test, what is your decision rule for rejecting a null hypothesis that the population mean equals 500 if you use the Z test? If you use a 0.01 level of significance in a two-tail hypothesis test, what is your decision rule for rejecting H0 : m = 12.5 if you use the Z test? What is the p-value if, in a two-tail hypothesis test, ZSTAT = +2.00? What is the p-value if, in a two-tail hypothesis test, ZSTAT = -1.38?
Which is cheaper: eating out or dining in? The mean cost of a flank steak, broccoli, and rice bought at the grocery store is $13.04 (Money.msn website, November 7, 2012). A sample of 100 neighborhood restaurants showed a mean price of $12.75 and a standard deviation of $2 for a comparable restaurant meal. Answer questions 4-7.
State why a non-significant outcome does not mean the null hypothesis is probably true?
An environmentalist wishes to conduct a hypothesis test on the percentage of cars driven in the city that are hybrids. Is it sufficient for him to use a simple random sample of 143 cars if hybrids currently account for 4% of the car sales in the country and he claims that the percentage of hybrids in the city is higher than that?
