The provided text outlines a statistical problem involving hypothesis testing:The problem states that the proportion of students who passed the Virginia 8th grade SOL test before 2005 on their first try was greater than 84%. A new random sample of 1250 test scores is used to determine if the pass rate still exceeds 84%, with 1075 students passing.The task is to find the P-value and make a decision based on a one-sample Z-test for proportions at the 0.05 level of significance. All conditions for the test are assumed to be met.Four options are given regarding the P-value and the corresponding decision:1. **P-value = 0.9731. Reject the null hypothesis.**2. **P-value = 0.9731. Do not reject the null hypothesis.**3. **P-value = 0.0269. Do not reject the null hypothesis.**4. **P-value = 0.0269. Reject the null hypothesis.**The correct choice is highlighted, indicating that:- **P-value = 0.9731. Do not reject the null hypothesis.**

Given information- Population proportion, p = 0.84 Sample size, n = 1250 Sample proportion is- We…

The proportion of students who pass the Virginia 8th grade SOL test before 2005 on the first try was greater than 84%. If a new random sample of 1250 test scores is collected to determine if the pass rate is still above 84% and 1075 students passed, what is the P-value and decision of this test? Test at the 0.05 level of significance. Assume all conditions are met and use the one sample Z-test on the proportion. P-value = 0.9731. Reject the null hypothesis. P-value = 0.9731. Do not reject the null hypothesis. P-value = 0.0269. Do not reject the null hypothesis. P-value = 0.0269. Reject the null hypothesis.

The Nero Match Company sells matchboxes that are supposed to have an average of 40 matches per box, with o = 8. A random sample of 92 matchboxes shows the average number of matches per box to be 42.9. Using a 1% level of significance, can you say that the average number of matches per box is more than 40?

Available below are amounts of arsenic in samples of brown rice from three different regions. The amounts are in micrograms of arsenic and all samples have the same serving size. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the three samples are from populations with the same mean. Do the amounts of arsenic appear to be different in the different regions? Given that the amounts of arsenic in the samples from region C have the highest mean, can we conclude that brown rice from region C poses the greatest health problem? view the data table of the arsenic amounts.

Is the conclusion for the test that there is a significant difference or that there is not a significant difference? You should fully explain how you can use this information to draw a conclusion.

In the US, the average one-way commuting time is 26.4 minutes. Is this different in Atlanta? One survey of 35 Atlanta commuters found an average one-way commuting time of 30.7 minutes. (a) The test statistic is 1.1846. What is the meaning of this test statistic? The average error between different sample results and the hypothesized mean is 1.1846.The current sample result is 1.1846 standard errors above the hypothesized mean. The maximum error between different sample results and the hypothesized mean is 1.1846. (b) Based on the test statistic of 1.1846, what is the p-value to test if the average commuting time in Atlanta is different than the rest of the US? (4 decimals.) (c) On the basis of the above p-value, what can be said regarding a 95% confidence interval for the true average commuting time? The interval contain the value 26.4, because this value .
