What would be your decision?A. There is insufficient data to make a decision.B. do not reject the null hypothesis.C. Reject the null hypothesis.D. Reject the alternative hypothesis. According to a dietary study, high sodium intake may be related to ulcers, stomach cancerand migraine headaches. The human requirement for salt is only 220 mg/day, which issurpassed in most single servings of ready-to-eat cereals. If a random sample of 25 similarservings of Special K has a mean of sodium content of 244 mg of sodium and a standarddeviation of 24.5 mg, does this suggest at the 0.01 level of significance that the averagesodium content of single serving of Special K is greater than 220 mg? Assume thedistribution of sodium contents to be normal.

3. A claim is made that the proportion of college students who have Netflix accounts is 0.85. Noah believes this claimed value is too high. He is able to survey a random sample of 240 college students, and he finds that the sample proportion who have Netflix accounts is 0.82. Noah proceeds to use this data to conduct a hypothesis test. Based on this information, which one of the following statements is correct? A. The p-value will be smaller than 0.01 but larger than 0. B. The p-value will be between 0.01 and 0.05. C. The p-value will be between 0.05 and 0.10. D. The p-value will be larger than 0.10.
A decade-old study found that the proportion of high school seniors who felt that "getting rich" was an important personal goal was 71%. Suppose that we have reason to believe that this proportion has changed, and we wish to carry out a hypothesis test to see if our belief can be supported. State the null hypothesis H0 and the alternative hypothesis H1 that we would use for this test.

The governor claims that the percentage of adults over 24 who have graduated from high school is greater than 75%, the national average. What is the null hypothesis? A. The percentage of adults over 24 who have graduated from high school is 75%. B. The percentage of adults over 24 who have graduated from high school is greater than 75%. C.

Suppose that you are considering whether to publish a weekly alternative newspaper on campus. You decide to survey a random sample of students on your campus to ask if they would be likely to read such a newspaper. Your plan is to proceed with publication only if the sample data provide strong evidence that more than 10% of all students on your campus would be likely to read such a newspaper. The parameter of interest is the proportion of all students who would likely read an alternative campus newspaper. The null hypothesis = 0.10 and the alternative hypothesis is greater (>) than 0.10. -What is power in the context of this problem?
