Watch Out for Lions after a Full MoonScientists studying lion attacks on humans in Tanzania found that lion attacks happened between pm and pm within either five days before a full moon or five days after a full moon. Of these, happened during the five days after the full moon while the other happened during the five days before the full moon. Does this sample of lion attacks provide evidence that attacks are more likely after a full moon? In other words, is there evidence that attacks are not equally split between the two five-day periods? (Note that this is a test for a single proportion since the data come from one sample.)
1.)State the null and alternative hypotheses.
2.)find the P-value
3.)What is the conclusion that can be drawn?(which one is correct?)
A:Do not reject Ho, attacks are more likely after a full moon.
B:Reject Ho , attacks are more likely after a full moon.
C:Reject Ho , there is no evidence that attacks are more likely after a full moon.
D:Do not reject Ho , there…
The NFL believes the chance of the Patriots winning the coin toss is greater than 50%. In a random sample of 300 coin tosses, the Patriots won 165 times. Is there enough evidence to suggest the Patriots are cheaters? Use the level of significance 0.01.
What is the appropriate statistical test to assess whether there is an association between obesity status (normal weight, overweight, obese) and 5-year incident cardiovascular disease (CVD)? Suppose each participant’s obesity status (category) is known as is whether they develop CVD over the next 5 years or not.
