Suppose a recent survey found that 74% of dog owners say their pet appears cheerful, while only 59% of cat owners say their pet appears cheerful. If one wants to perform a test to see if these two proportions are significantly different, what would the null and alternative hypotheses be?

Random digit dialing telephone surveys used to exclude cell phone numbers. If the opinions of people who have only cell phones differ from those of people who have landline service, the poll results may not represent the entire adult population. The Pew Research Center interviewed separate random samples of cell-only and landline telephone users who were less than 30 years old. Here’s what the Pew survey found about how these people describe their political party affiliation. State the Null and Alternative Hypotheses.
Suppose we are interested in the relationship between individuals’ place of residence (rural versus urban) and their political affiliation (Republican versus Democrat). A random sample of 100 individuals yields the following crosstabulation: Political Affiliation Place of Residence Republican Democrat Rural 21 29 Urban 14 36 a) In words, what is the null hypothesis to be tested? b) Is the relationship between place of residence and political affiliation statistically significant at the .05 level? (Be sure to show the statistics that lead to your decision.) c) Compute and interpret an appropriate measure of association for the relationship between these two variables.
If Miller (2008) wanted to know if males consume significantly more energy drinks than the overall population average, which of the following are the correct hypotheses?
Forbes reports that women in general trust recommendations from Pinterest more than recommendations from any other social network platform. But does trust in Pinterest differ by gender? The following sample data show the number of women and men who state in a recent survey that they trust recommendations made on Pinterest. Sample Trust recommendations made on Pinterest Women 150 117 Men 170 102 We want to determine whether trust in Pinterest differ by gender. Formulate the null and the alternative hypotheses. Use 1 to represent women and 2 to represent men. H0: Ha: Null: p1 – p2 ≥ 0; Alternative: p1 – p2 < 0 Null: p1 – p2 = 0 ; Alternative: p1 – p2 ≠ 0 Null: p1 – p2 ≤ 0; Alternative: p1 – p2 > 0 B. What the test statistics? You probably need to find the pooled proportion first. Pooled proportion is ___________. 0.6 0.78 0.6844 C. Test statistic is ________. 3.46 1.28 66.41 4.36
In a clinical trial of a drug intended to help people stop smoking, 125 subjects were treated with the drug for 12 weeks, and 14 subjects experienced abdominal pain. If someone claims that more than 8% of the drug's users experience abdominal pain, that claim is supported with a hypothesis test conducted with a 0.05 significance level. Using 0.17 as an alternative value of p, the power of the test is 0.95. Interpret this value of the power of the test. The power of 0.95 shows that there is a % chance of rejecting the hypothesis of p = when the true proportion is actually That is, if the proportion of users who experience abdominal pain is actually then there is a % chance of supporting the claim that the proportion of than 0.08. users who experience abdominal pain is (Type integers or decimals. Do not round.)
A newsletter publisher believes that 48 % of their readers own a laptop. A testing firm believes this is inaccurate and performs a test to dispute the publisher's claim. After performing a test at the 0.10 level of significance, the testing firm fails to reject the null hypothesis. What is the conclusion regarding the publisher’s claim?
If a hypothesis test were conducted using a 5% level of significance, for which of the following p-values would the null hypothesis be rejected? A. 0.0367 B. 0.0501 C. 0.100 D. 0.299
A political scientist claims that 38% of first-year college students characterize themselves as being “moderate” or “middle of the road” as far as their political affiliation is concerned. Believing this claimed value is too high, you survey a random sample of 400 first-year college students and find that 120 characterize themselves as being “moderate” or “middle of the road.” Based on this information, what will the test statistic be? Choose the answer below that is closest to what you calculate, and try not to do a lot of rounding until you get to the very end of your calculations. 1. -0.3 2. -1.2 3. -2.6 4. -3.3 5. None of the other answer options are correct because the test statistic should be positive, not negative.
Suppose 230 subjects are treated with a drug that is used to treat pain and 52 of them developed nausea. Use a 0.10 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. A. H0:p=0.20 H1:p>0.20 B. H0:p=0.20H1: p≠0.20 C. H0:p=0.20 H1:p<0.20 D. H0:p>0.20 H1:p=0.20 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.
Researchers asked soda drinkers to view either the logo for their favorite soda or a graphic warning demonstrating the harmful effects of sugary beverages (e.g., tooth decay, obesity) and then measured their negative mood with a short survey. They found that those participants who saw the warnings reported significantly greater negative moods than those who saw the logos. Which statistical test should be used?
A university has decided to introduce the use of plus and minus grading as long as there is evidence that 60% of the faculty is in support of this change. Write an appropriate null hypothesis and alternate hypothesis to test if the proportion is greater than 60%.
If a researcher rejects the null hypothesis when conducting a hypothesis test, it means that the sample data failed to provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the treatment had an effect. true or false
