Write the null and alternative hypotheses you would use to test the following situation. A weight loss center provided a loss for 72% of its participants. The center's leader decides to test a new weight loss strategy to see if it's better. What are the null and altemative hypotheses? O A. Ho: p = 0.72 HA: P#0.72 O B. Ho: p> 0.72 HA:p< 0.72 OC. Ho:p= 0.72 HA:p> 0.72 O D. Ho: p = 0.72 HA:p<0.72 O E. Ho: p>0.72 HA:P= 0.72

Internet tax: The Gallup Poll asked 1043 U.S. adults whether they believed that people should pay sales tax on items purchased over the internet. Of these, 407 said they supported such a tax. Does the survey provide convincing evidence that the percentage of U.S. adults who favor an internet sales tax differs from 40%? Use the a = 0.05 level of significance. Part 1 of 5 State the appropriate null and alternate hypotheses. Ho: p = 0.40 H:p = 0.40 This hypothesis test is a two-tailed test. Part: 1/5 Part 2 of 5 Find the critical values. Round the answers to at least three decimal places. For a = 0.05, the critical values are and
If you use a 0.05 level of significance in a two tail hypothesis test, what decision will you make if z = +2.21?
A market research team thinks that their new ad campaign is better than their old one. They used to be able to sell to 50% of those who saw their ads. To test their thought, they will run a hypothesis test. They take a random sample of 100 potential buyers and find that they convinced 60 of these people to buy their product. The test will be run at a 1% significance level. O a. The test statistic is 2 and we conclude that the new ad campaign is not signficantly better. O b. The test statistic is 2 and we conclude that the new ad campaign is signficantly better. O. The test stat is 2.236 and we conclude that the new ad campaign is not significantly better. O d. The test stat is 2.236 and we conclude that the new ad campaign is significantly better. O e. The test stat is 2.5 and we are left with a test that is inconclusive.

What is the obtained statistic for this problem? The effect size for this problem is _______.
According to a recent study in New York, 15% of shoppers are unfairly being charged sales tax in non-taxable items. Mr. Hypothesis feels this proportion is too low. He tests his belief by conducting a survey of 200 random shoppers. Which of the following is the null hypothesis? a. The percent of shoppers unfairly being charged sales tax on non-taxable items < .15 b. The percent of shoppers unfairly being charged sales tax on non-taxable items > .15 c. The percent of shoppers unfairly being charged sales tax on non-taxable items = .15
Abnormalities In the 1980s it was generally believedthat congenital abnormalities affected about 5% of thenation’s children. Some people believe that the increasein the number of chemicals in the environment has ledto an increase in the incidence of abnormalities. A recentstudy examined 384 children and found that 46 of themshowed signs of an abnormality. Is this strong evidencethat the risk has increased?a) Write appropriate hypotheses.b) Check the necessary assumptions.c) Perform the mechanics of the test. What is theP-value?d) Explain carefully what the P-value means in context.e) What’s your conclusion?f) Do environmental chemicals cause congenitalabnormalities?
