The advertised claim for batteries for cell phones is set at 48 operating hours with proper charging procedures. A study of 5000 batteries is carried out and 15 stop operating prior to 48 hours. Do these experimental results support the claim that less than 0.2 percent of the company’s batteries will fail during the advertised time period, with proper charging procedures? Use a hypothesis-testing procedure with α = 0.01.

A new screening test for Lyme disease is developed for use in the general population. The sensitivity and specificity of the new test are 60% and 70%, respectively. Five hundred people are screened at a clinic during the first year the new test is implemented. Assume the true prevalence of Lyme disease among clinic attendees is 10%. Calculate the predictive value of a positive test.
In an area where there is no radioactive fallout, 1% of newborns show genetic disorders. Genetic disorders were observed in 150 out of 10000 babies born in a year in a region with radioactive fallout as a result of atomic bomb trials.Test whether radioactive fallout increases the rate of genetic defects at α = 0.05 significance level.
According to a certain government agency for a large country, the proportion of fatal traffic accidents in the country in which the driver had a positive blood alcohol concentration (BAC) is 0.34. Suppose a random sample of 109 traffic fatalities in a certain region results in 50 that involved a positive BAC. Does the sample evidence suggest that the region has a higher proportion of traffic fatalities involving a positive BAC than the country at the x = 0.01 level of significance? Because npo (1-Po) = 24.5 > 10, the sample size is (Round to one decimal place as needed.) What are the null and alternative hypotheses? p = 0.34 versus H₁: p > 0.34 Ho: p (Type integers or decimals.

Prior to an intensive TV advertising campaign, the producers of Nike athletic shoes find that 29 of a random sample of 200 upper-income adults are aware of their new leisure shoe line. A second random sample of 300 such adults is taken after the campaign. Now 96 of the persons sampled can identify the new line. Is the increase in the proportion of upper income adults showing brand awareness significant? Test the claim using alpha = .05.
The drug Tamiflu (oseltamivir phosphate) is used to attack the influenza virus to reduce symptoms for patients. The manufacturer label states that 6% of patients will develop nausea as a side effect. Patients report that nausea occurs at a higher rate than the label indicates. In clinical trials, among 724 patients treated with Tamiflu, 72 experienced nausea as a side effect. Using an α=0.05 level of significance, complete the following steps to determine whether the rate of developing nausea is higher than the manufacturer’s label. (NOTE: All areas are reported to four decimal places; all z-scores are reported to two decimal places except the two special cases listed at the bottom of the table.) Insert the following values from the question: p = % = q = x = n = p̂ = α = Set up the hypothesis statements (no spaces between characters): H0: H1: Based on the hypothesis statements, will you use α or (1 - α) to solve for zcrit?

Denny studied factors affecting cardiovascular reactivity to a postural change in a sample of healthy men and women. Change in systolic blood pressure (SBP) from supine to standing position was used as the measure of cardiac reactivity in a sample of 842 adults. Supine measurement of blood pressure was taken after participants had lain on an examination table for 15 minutes. Blood pressure was determined every 30 seconds using a Dinamap device for 2 minutes, and the measurements were averaged. Participants then stood up immediately, and additional measurements were made for another 2 minutes. Below is a table describing the characteristics of Denny’s sample: Which measures of dispersion, if any, are presented in this table (Ranges, SDs)? If age is normally distributed, approximately what percent of the sample would be younger than 50? If BMI is normally distributed, approximately what percent of the sample would have a BMI higher than 33.1?
A study is planned to investigate risk factors for sudden cardiac death. A cohort of men and women between the ages of 35 and 70 is enrolled and followed for up to 20 years. As part of the study, participants provide data on demographic and behavioral characteristics; they also undergo testing for cardiac function and provide blood samples to assess lipid profiles and other biomarkers. A new measure of inflammation is hypothesized to be related to sudden cardiac death. Describe its strengths and weaknesses.

The local Hannaford was tracking the proportion of customers who bought flour in their stores. In mid-March they found that 65% of customers were buying flour when it was available. They want to know if that percentage has decreased now that flour is more readily available. Their hypotheses are: Ho: p 2 .65 and Ha: p < .65. They sample 200 customers and found that 120 of them bought flour. What is the computed test statistic? Calculate the z or t, whichever is appropriate, and give the result rounded to 2 decimal places. If it's a negative number, put the negative sign before the number with no spaces between it and the number.
