- What is meant by the sample space of an experiment?arrow_forwardCould you please help me with the following question.arrow_forwardCreate a research hypothesis that would be answered using either a z- or a t- test. Include the following: Introduction: Brief description of the study including the purpose and importance of the research question being asked. What is the null hypothesis? What is the research hypothesis? Participants/Sampling Method: Describe your sampling method. What is your sample size? Who is your population of interest? How representative is the sample of the population under study? Data Analysis: Describe the statistical analysis. What is your variable? What is its level of measurement? What is your alpha level? Results & Discussion: Did you reject the null hypothesis? What information did you use to lead you to your conclusion? Was your p value greater than or less than your alpha? NOTE: You can just make up numbers, but include your made-up p valuearrow_forward
- Please help me in the following question.arrow_forward(b) (c) (d) What is the value of the sample test statistic? Find (or estimate) the P-value. Based on your answers in parts (a) to (c), will you reject or fail to Teject the null hypothesis? Are the data statistically significant at level a? 6. Professor Jennings claims that only 35% of the students at Flora College work while attending school, Dean Benata thinks that the professor has underestimated the number of students with part-time or full-time jobs. A random sample of 76 students shows that 36 have jobs. Do the data indicate that more than 35% of the students bave jobs? Use a 5% level of significance. What are we testing in this problem? i) single proportion ii) single mean a) What is the level of significance? State the null and alternate hypotheses. what sampling distribution will you use? What assumptions are you making? b) What is the value of the sample test statistic? c) Find (or estimate) the P-value. d) Based on your answers in parts (a) to (c), will you reject or fail to…arrow_forwardA cigarette manufacturer claims that his cigarettes have nicotine content that does not exceed 2.0 milligrams.

- You want to run a hypothesis test on the proportion of a phenomenon occurring. You make the following choices: Significance level: 5% Null Hypothesis: p >= 0.6 Alternate Hypothesis: p < 0.6 A sample is then taken with the following properties: A sample size of 120 A sample proportion of 0.54 Run a hypothesis test and either reject or do not reject the null hypothesis.arrow_forwardWhich of the following decrease(s) power in hypothesis testing? A. Increasing the sample size. B. Decreasing αα level. C. Increasing the population variance. D. Increasing the difference in the means of the two conditions in an independent-samples design. E.
