You are conducting a hypothesis test on the body weights of male fraternity members. The null hypothesis is that the averge weight is less than or equal to 200 lbs. Your test will be at the 0.01 significance level. You take a sample of 64 men, and find that the sample average is 210 lbs, and the standard deviation is 20 lbs. What is/are the critical values for this test? Group of answer choices -1.96 -2.33 and 2.33 2.33 -1.64

The government of a certain country says that the literacy rate (the proportion of people who are literate) in the country is 73%. A nongovernmental organization believes that the rate is lower than that. To test their belief at the 1% significance level, the organization studies a random sample of 420 people and finds that 283 of them are literate. Ho: p=0.73 Ha: P< 0.73 Find the P-value. Round your answer to 3 decimal places.
A random sample of 49 cans of soda is obtained and the contents are measured. The sample mean is 12.01 oz and the standard deviation is 0.13 oz. Test the claim that the contents of all such cans have a mean different from 12.00 oz, as indicated by the label. Use a 0.05 significance level. Find the Z score And the P value. Do you reject the hypothesis?
You work for a soft-drink company in the quality control division. You are interested in the variance of one of your production lines as a measure of consistency. The product is intended to have a mean of 12 ounces, and your team would like the variance to be as low as possible. You gather a random sample of 16 containers.

According to a report on consumer fraud and identity theft, 20% of all complaints for a year were for identity theft. In that year, Rhode Island had 717 complaints of identity theft out of 3498 consumer complaints. Does this data provide enough evidence to show that Rhode Island had a higher proportion of identity theft than 20%? Test at the 5% level. State the hypotheses. Họ: p ? Ha: P Calculate the test statistic. Round to four decimal places. Calculate the standardized test statistic. Round to three decimal places. z = Find the p-value. Round to four decimal places. p-value = State your decision. O Since the p-value is less than .05, reject Ho. O Since the p-value is greater than .05, fail to reject Hg. O Since the p-value is less than .05, fail to reject Hg. O Since the p-value is greater than .05, reject Ho. Interpret the results.

z Scores LeBron James, one of the most successful basketball players of all time, has a height of 6 feet 8 inches, or 203 cm. Based on statistics from Data Set 1 “Body Data” in Appendix B, his height converts to the z score of 4.07. How many standard deviations is his height above the mean?
A statistician changes her level of significance from .001 to .05. What impact will this change have on her risk of making a Type I and Type II error? Is the change in the level of significance a good decision? Why or why not?
Suppose a researcher wants to estimate the population proportion of defective light bulbs. He took a random sample of 800 light bulbs and 40 of them found out to be defective. Suppose the researcher claims that the defective proportion of light bulb is less than 7%. Suppose he wants to test this claim at 5% significance level. Calculate the test statistics.

study is designed to investigate whether there is a difference in response to various treatments in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. The outcome is patient's self-reported effect of treatment. The data are shown on the next page. Is there a significant difference in effect of treatment? Hint: Are severity of symptoms and treatment independent? Run the test at a 5% level of significance. Demonstrate the five steps for hypothesis testing and draw a conclusion based on your results. Remember to determine the p- value, if relevant.
