Suppose that the Federal Communications Commission would like to determine whether or not Americans have internet capable of supporting remote online instruction. A local cable company contends that 88% of the people in your community have internet capable of facilitating remote instruction. a. Write the null and alternative hypothesis to test the cable company's claim. Write both hypotheses in symbols and in sentences. b: Suppose that you survey 750 residents of your community. Do you have the requirements met to run the test? Justify your reasoning in complete sentences. c. Suppose that 620 people have internet that will support remote instruction. Find the test statistic and p-value for the test. d. Suppose that a=.05. Using the p-value method, what is the conclusion to the test? Justify your reasoning using your findings. State all of your answers in complete sentences.

3. Today, in a random sample of 30 people, Trump received an approval rating of 30% world- wide. On his last day in office, Trump had an approval rating of 22% world-wide. Using a hypothesis test, is his approval rating getting better?
Country Magazine reports that celebrity MySpace accounts have an average of 4 million friends. Celebologist Chuck Norris thinks that it's actually different than that. Norris randomly samples 43 celebrities on MySpace and finds an average of 3 million friends. Which is the best set of hypotheses to test Chuck Norris's claim?
a. Set up the null and alternative hypothesis (using mathematical notation/numbers and interpretthem in context of the problem) b. Calculate the test statistic for the test from part a.
A study considered the question, “Are you a registered voter?” Accuracy of response was confirmed by a check of city voting records. Two methods of survey were used: a face-to-face interview and a telephone interview. A random sample of 93 people were asked the voter registration question face-to-face. Seventy-nine respondents gave accurate answers. Another random sample of 83 people was asked the same question during a telephone interview. Seventy-four respondents gave accurate answers. Assume that the samples are representative of the general population. Test the claim that there is a difference in the proportion of accurate responses from face-to-face compared with telephone interviews. Use alpha=.05 What is the null hypothesis? What is the alternative hypothesis? What distribution are you using? What test are you running? What is your conclusion?

The term error is used two different ways in the context of a hypothesis test. First, there is the concept of standard error, and, second, there is the concept of a Type I error.a. What factor can a researcher control that will reduce the risk of a Type I error? Explain the logic.b. What factor can a researcher control that will reduce the standard error? Explain the logic.

Explain what the statements below mean:A)A Rasmussen Reports national survey of 1000 adult Americans found that 18% dreaded Valentine's Day. The margin of error for the survey was 4.5 percentage points with 95% confidence. B)A Gallup poll of 547 adults Americans employed full or part time asked, "Generally speaking, would you say your commute to work is - very stressful, somewhat stressful, not that stressful at all?" Gallup reported that 24% of American workers said that their commute was "very" or "somewhat" stressful. The margin of error was 4 percentage points with 95% confidence.
a) What is the correct p-value for this test?
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.
A researcher claims that 75% of votors favor gun control. Determine whether the hypothesis test for this claim is left-tailed, right-tailed, or two-tailed. right-tailed two-tailed left-tailed
One of the questions in a study of marital satisfaction of dual-career couples was to rate the statement, "I'm pleased with the way we divide the responsibilities for childcare." The ratings went from 1 (strongly agree) to 5 (strongly disagree). The table below contains ten of the paired responses for wives and husbands. Conduct a hypothesis test at the 5% level to see if wife's satisfaction levels are lower than their husband's satisfaction level (meaning that, within the partnership, the husband is happier than the wife). Wife's score 3 2 3 3 4 2 1 1 2 4 Husband's score 2 2 1 3 2 1 1 1 2 4 NOTE: If you are using a Student's t-distribution for the problem, including for paired data, you may assume that the underlying population is normally distributed. (In general, you must first prove that assumption, though.) Part (a) State the null hypothesis. H0: ?d = 0 H0: ?d > 0 H0: ?d < 0 H0: ?d ≠ 0 Part (b) State the alternative hypothesis. Ha: ?d > 0 Ha:…
