- A medical researcher is interested in determining if there is a relationship between adults over 50 who exercise regularly and levels of blood pressure.

- A random sample of 81 tourists in Chattanooga showed that they spent an average of $2000(in a week) with a standard deviation of $100 and a sample of 64 tourists in Ontario showed that they spent an average of $2500(in a week) with a standard deviation of $144. We are interested in determining if there is any significant difference between the average expenditures of those who visited the two cities? Test the hypothesis at alpha=0.05 and write all the steps.arrow_forwardA hypothesis regarding the weight of newborn infants at a community hospital is that the mean is 6.6 pounds. A sample of seven infants is randomly selected and their weights at birth are recorded as 9.0, 7.3, 6.0, 8.8, 6.8, 8.4, and 6.6 pounds. If α = 0.05, what is the critical t value? 2) A hypothesis regarding the weight of newborn infants at a community hospital is that the mean is 6.6 pounds.

- Approximately 10% of Americans are left-handed (we will treat this as a knownpopulation parameter). A study on the relationship between handedness andprofession found that in a random sample of 105 lawyers, 16 of them were left-handed 1 . Test the hypothesis that the proportion of left-handed lawyers is higher thanthe proportion of left-handed Americans. Use α = 0.01.H 0 : Lawyers are just as likely to be left-handed as other Americans: p = 0.10H 1 : Lawyers are more likely to be left-handed than other Americans: p > 0.10. a. Check to see if the null hypothesis sampling distribution is normal. Keep in mindwhether you are dealing with means or proportions. b. Draw the null hypothesis sampling distribution (a normal curve). Label its center. c. Calculate your test statistic and draw it on your null hypothesis curve. This is justyour sample statistic ( or ) converted to a Z-score on your null hypothesis samplingdistribution. Make sure you are using the appropriate SE formula!

A sociologist tests whether this percentage is different today by conducting a random sample of 500 females aged 15 and older and finds that 285 are living alone. Is there sufficient evidence at the α = 0.1 level of significance to conclude the proportion has changed since 2000?arrow_forward
