Consider an experiment for patients who underwent CPR for a heart attack and then was sent
to the hospital. Patients were randomly divided into a treatment group where they received a
blood thinner or the control group where they did not. We're interested in understanding what
proportion of patients survived in the first 24 hours in the hospital. Here's the data:
Control
Treatment
Survived
11
14
Died
39
26
With the help of Mathematics and R Studio: Conduct a (full) hypothesis test to determine if
the treatment group survived at a higher rate than the control group.
Q2) Paired-Samples t Test
A research project has been tracking the health and cognitive functions of the elderly population in
Arizona. The table below shows the memory test scores from some elderly residents, tested first
when they were 65 years old and again when they were 75 years old. The researcher wants to
know if there is a significant decline in memory functions from age 65 to age 75 based on this
sample. In other words, it is hypothesized that the memory score at age 75 is significantly lower
than the memory score at age 65. So the null and alternative hypotheses should be directional.
The alpha level was set at a = .05 for a one-tailed hypothesis test.

According to a recent survey 45% of health care workers ages 18-29 reported feeling burnout from their jobs. Researchers believe that the level of burnout among older workers is even higher than that of younger workers. To test this belief they collected data from a random sample of 237 healthcare workers ages 50-64, and observed that 55% of healthcare workers in this age group reported feeling burnout from their jobs.
