The claim that "40% of those persons who retired from an industrial job before the age of 60 would return to work if a suitable job was available, is to be investigated at the 0.02 level of risk. If 74 out of the 200 workers sampled said they would return to work, what is our decision? Select one: a.Do not reject the null hypothesis because 27% lies in the area between 2% and 40% b.Do not reject the null hypothesis because -0.866 lies in the region between 0 and -2.33 c.Do not reject the nll hypothesis because 37% lies in the area between 0% and 40% O d.Reject the null hypothesis because 37% is less than 40% e.Do not reject the null hypothesis because -0.866 lies in the region between 0 and -2.58

Test the claim that the proportion of men who own cats is smaller than 40% at the .005 significance level. The null and alternative hypothesis would be:
Suppose we have a case-control study that completes and yields a study OR = 4.5. If we were told the true OR in the population was actually 2.25 (we normally wouldn’t know this, but suppose hypothetically someone was able to know this and told us), this again means our study OR is biased. Is our study OR biased towards or away from the null? A)Away from the null. B)Towards the null.
A simple random sample of size n = 200 drivers with a valid driver's license is asked if they drive an American-made automobile. Of the 200 drivers surveyed, 118 responded that they drive an American-made automobile. Determine if a majority of those with a valid driver's license drive an American-made automobile at the a = 0.05 level of significance. ..... What type of variable is "drive an American-made automobile, or not"? A. Qualitative with two possible outcomes B. Discrete C. Continuous…
(c) Calculate the test statistic. d) Decide whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis. Then interpret the decision in the context of the original claim.
Males and females were asked what they would do if they received a $100 bill in the mail that was addressed to their neighbor, but had been incorrectly delivered to them. Of the 70 males sampled, 55 said yes they would return it to their neighbor. Of the 130 females sampled, 120 said yes. The overall question is: Is this sufficient evidence to say that the two true proportions are different? Assume that the p-value turns out to be .027 (again not the correct p-value for this situation but use it to answer this question). What is your decision on this hypothesis test using a 5% level of significance? O Fail to reject the null hypothesis Reject the null hypothesis
Annie is concerned over a report that "a woman over age 40 has a better chance of being killed by a terrorist than of getting married." A study found that the likelihood of marriage for a never-previously-wed, 40-year-old university-educated American woman was 2.4%. To demonstrate that this percentage is too small, Annie uses her resources at the Baltimore Sun to conduct a simple random sample of 440 never-previously-wed, university-educated, American women who were single at the beginning of their 40s and who are now 45. Of these women, 12 report now being married. Does this evidence support Annie’s claim, at the 0.02 level of significance, that the chances of getting married for this group is greater than 2.4%? Step 1 of 3: State the null and alternative hypotheses for the test. Fill in the blank below. Step 2 of 3: Compute the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to two decimal places Step 3 of 3: Draw a conclusion and interpret the decision.
A newsletter publisher believes that 29% of their readers own a laptop. Is there sufficient evidence at the 0.05 level to refute the publisher's claim? State the null and alternative hypothesis for the above scenario
An educator believes that the proportion of finance majors seeking to earn an MBA degree equals the proportion of management majors seeking to earn an MBA degree in the population. A random sample of 100 finance majors is taken and 24 indicate that they will seek to earn an MBA degree. Likewise, a random sample of 400 management majors is taken and 65 indicate that they will seek to earn an MBA degree. Using this information, test the educator’s claim at the 0.05 level

Annie is concerned over a report that "a woman over age 40 has a better chance of being killed by a terrorist than of getting married." A study found that the likelihood of marriage for a never-previously-wed, 40-year-old university-educated American woman was 3.2%. To demonstrate that this percentage is too small, Annie uses her resources at the Baltimore Sun to conduct a simple random sample of 436 never-previously-wed, university-educated, American women who were single at the beginning of their 40s and who are now 45. Of these women, 20 report now being married. Does this evidence support Annie’s claim, at the 0.02 level of significance, that the chances of getting married for this group is greater than 3.2%? Step 1 of 3 : State the null and alternative hypotheses for the test. Circle the answer below. H0: p=0.032: Ha: p 0.032 A.<B.>C.≠ Step 2 of 3: Compute the value of the test statistic.
