The National Electronic Injury Surveillance System tracks injuries reported from hospital admissions across the United States (Consumer Product Safety Commission 2018). For the data in 2017, we extracted all incidences of hand injuries that referenced punching a wall. There were 1843 such cases. The surveillance system also records some of the properties of the patients, including gender. Of all cases where a person was admitted to a hospital for injuries from punching a wall, 1352 were recorded as male and 491 were recorded as female. a. Do an appropriate hypothesis test to ask whether the proportion of males among wall-punchers is 50%.

A study conducted at the University of Denver investigated whether babies take longer to learn to crawl in cold months, when they are often bundled in clothes that restrict their movement, than in warmer months. Infants born during the study year were split into twelve groups, one for each birth month. We consider the average crawling age of babies in each group against the average temperature when the babies are six months old (that's when babies often begin trying to crawl). Temperature is measured in degrees Fahrenheit and age is measured in weeks. 34 33 32 31 30- 29 30 40 50 60 70 Temperature (F) a) Describe the relationship between temperature and crawling age.

An aircraft emergency locator transmitter (ELT) is a device designed to transmit a signal in the case of a crash. The Altigauge Manufacturing Company makes 80% of the ELTS, the Bryant Company makes 15% of them, and the Chartair Company makes the other 5%. The ELTS made by Altigauge have a 4% rate of defects, the Bryant ELTS have a 6% rate of defects, and the Chartair ELTS have a 9% rate of defects (which helps to explain why Chartair has the lowest market share). i) If an ELT is randomly selected from the general population of all ELTS, find the probability that it was made by the Altigauge Manufacturing Company. If a randomly selected ELT is then tested and is found to be ii) defective, find the probability that it was made by the Altigauge Manufacturing Company.

There is an antigen kit for COVID-19. If a person is infected, the kit will correctiy report 989% of the time. If a person is not infected, the kit will incorrectly report that the person is infected 19% of the time. The kit is used in two communities called A and B. A and B differ in the percentage of the infected individuals. In A, 98% of the people have no virus. In B, 70% of the people have no virus. Alice lives in A. Bob lives in B. Both Alice and Bob use the antigen kit. They both have positive results. Compare their chances of actually having the virus.

Cintas has installed three smoke detectors in its stockroom. The installer asserts that each detector is 90% likely to detect a fire within 30 seconds of ignition. Assuming the three detectors function independently, how likely is it that a fire will be detected within 30 seconds?

A study was performed to evaluate the support for increasing the speed limit between the residents. A random sample of 500 residents of Marietta - Georgia found that 385 were in favor of increasing the highway speed limit to 75 mph, while another sample of 400 residents of Kennesaw - Georgia found that 267 were in favor of the increased speed limit. Do these data indicate that there is a difference in the support for in increasing the speed limit between the residents of the two cities? Use a = 0.05. (a) Test the hypothesis Ho: P1 = p2 versus H1: P1 # P2. What is zo? (b) Is it reasonable to conclude that there is a difference in the support for increasing the speed limit between the residents of the two cities?

A recent drug survey showed an increase in the use of drugs and alcohol among local high school seniors as compared to the national percent. Suppose that a survey of 100 local seniors and 100 national seniors is conducted to see if the proportion of drug and alcohol use is higher locally than nationally. Locally, 65 seniors reported using drugs or alcohol within the past month, while 60 national seniors reported using them.

According to​ scientists, the cockroach has had 300 million years to develop a resistance to destruction. In a study conducted by​ researchers, 6 comma 0006,000 roaches​ (the expected number in a​ roach-infested house) were released in the test kitchen. One week​ later, the kitchen was fumigated and 18 comma 10718,107 dead roaches were​ counted, a gain of 12 comma 10712,107 roaches for the​ 1-week period. Assume that none of the original roaches died during the​ 1-week period and that the standard deviation of​ x, the number of roaches produced per roach in a​ 1-week period, is 1.61.6. Use the number of roaches produced by the sample of 6 comma 0006,000 roaches to find a 9595​% confidence interval for the mean number of roaches produced per week for each roach in a typical​ roach-infested house.   Find a 95​% confidence interval for the mean number of roaches produced per week for each roach in a typical​ roach-infested house.

Researchers investigated two kinds of laugh tracks – one with posed laughter and one with spontaneous laughter. Recall that to create the posed laughter laugh track, the researchers asked people to laugh and recorded the results. The researchers also tested the same 40 jokes with a spontaneous laughing laugh track, which they created by having people watch funny videos and recording their laughter. The data can be found in the file LaughTypes in pictures. Put these data into the Matched Pairs applet to investigate whether the type of laughter makes a difference in the ratings of the jokes and also do parts (a) (b) and (c):

A researcher wants to determine the specificity of mammograms to determine how effective they are at diagnosing women who have breast cancer. Assume the researcher obtained the results below from a study:  Out of a total of 18 women with breast cancer, 12 screened positive and 6 screened negative on the mammogram. Out of a total of 82 women without breast cancer, 5 screened positive and 77 screened negative on the mammogram. Calculate and interpret the specificity of mammograms for detecting breast cancer.

A medical student at a community college in city Q wants to study the factors affecting the systolic blood pressure of a person (Y). Generally, the systolic blood pressure depends on the BMI of a person (B) and the age of the person A. She wants to test whether or not the BMI has a significant effect on the systolic blood pressure, keeping the age of the person constant. For her study, she collects a random sample of 150 patients from the city and estimates the following regression function: Y= 15.50 +0.90B + 1.10A. (0.48) (0.35) The test statistic of the study the student wants to conduct (Ho: B, =0 vs. H4: B, #0), keeping other variables constant is. (Round your answer to two decimal places.) At the 5% significance level, the student will v the null hypothesis. Keeping BMI constant, she now wants test whether the age of a person (A) has no significant effect or a positive effect on the person's systolic blood pressure. So, the test statistic associated with the one-sided test the…

Since muscle tension in the head region has been associated with tension headaches, a researcher reasoned that if the muscle tension could be changed, perhaps the headaches would also be changed. The researcher designed an experiment in which nine subjects with tension headaches participated. The subjects kept daily logs of the number of headaches they experienced during a 2-week baseline period. Then the researcher trained them to change their muscle tension in the head region, using a biofeedback device. For this experiment, the biofeedback device was connected to a muscle in the forehead region. The device indicated the subject's amount of tension in the muscle to which it was attached and helped them achieve low tension levels. After 6 weeks of training, during which the subjects became successful at maintaining low muscle tension, they again kept a 2-week log of the number of headaches experienced. The following are the number of headaches recorded during each 2-week period.…

Copepods are tiny crustaceans that are an essential link in the estuarine food web. Marine scientists designed an experiment to determine whether dietary lipid Diatoms Bacteria Macroalgae 421 304 290 (fat) content is important in the population growth of a copepod. Independent random samples of copepods were placed in containers containing lipid-rich diatoms, bacteria, or leafy macroalgae. There were 12 containers total with four replicates per diet. Five gravid (egg-bearing) females were placed in each container. After 14 days, the number of copepods in each container were as given to the right. At the 5% significance level, do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that a difference exists in mean number of copepods among the three different diets? 296 312 300 295 326 267 Click here to view page 1 of the F-distribution.

Ms. Fit investigates whether children exhibit a higher number of prosocial acts after watching a 30-minute cartoon containing multiple prosocial acts in comparison to watching a 30-minute educational cartoon. Before watching the cartoon, children were matched on empathy (as rated by one of their parents) and then one of each pair was assigned to either the prosocial cartoon or the educational cartoon. The number of prosocial acts for the children was analyzed and resulted in the output below. Write a directional alternative hypothesis. Identify the IV, its levels, and its scale of measurement. Identify the DV and its scale of measurement. Identify one limitation in the design of this specific study (not just this type of design). Explain why it is a limitation and suggest how a future study could avoid it. What specific procedures should the research have followed to ensure that the study is ethical? Explain your answer.
