3) A certain country claims that their COVID-19 vaccine is more than 80% effective. In their clinical trial test, 810 out of 1000 subjects received protection and prevented them from the virus infection. a) For a one-tailed test, what should be the hypotheses? b) What is the t-value/ z-value?

Find the Type II error given that the null hypothesis, H0, is: there are no more than 15% of structures in the county were built without permits.And, the alternative hypothesis, Ha, is: a building inspector claims that more than 15% of structures in the county were built without permits. Select the correct answer below: The building inspector concludes that more than 15% of the structures in the county were built without permits when, in fact, no more than 15% of the structures were built without permits. The building inspector concludes that more than 15% of the structures in the county were built without permits when, in fact, more than 15% of the structures were built without permits. The building inspector cannot conclude that more than 15% of the structures in the county were built without permits when, in fact, no more than 15% of the structures were built without permits. The building inspector cannot conclude that more than 15% of the structures in the county were…
The manufacturer of a spot remover claims that hisproduct removes 90 percent of all spots. If, in a random sample, only 174 of 200 spots were removed with the man-ufacturer’s product, test the null hypothesis θ = 0.90 against the alternative hypothesis θ < 0.90 at the 0.05level of significance.
A doctor claims that less than 30 percent of all per-sons exposed to a certain amount of radiation will feel any ill effects. If, in a random sample, only 1 of 19 per-sons exposed to such radiation felt any ill effects, test the null hypothesis θ = 0.30 against the alternative hypothe-sis θ < 0.30 at the 0.05 level of significance.
If a researcher were conducting a two-tailed/non-directional hypothesis test with an alpha of 0.10 and a sample of size n=120, what would the Zcrit value be?
If the same hypothesis is tested often enough, it is likely to be rejected at least once, even if it is true. A pro-fessor of biology, attempting to demonstrate this fact, ran white mice through a maze to determine if white miceran the maze faster than the norm established by manyprevious tests involving various colors of mice.(a) If the professor conducts this experiment once withseveral mice (using the 0.05 level of significance), what isthe probability that he will come up with a “significant”result even if the color of the mouse does not affect itsspeed in running the maze?(b) If the professor repeats the experiment with a new setof white mice, what is the probability that at least oneof the experiments will yield a “significant” result evenif the color of a mouse does not affect its maze-runningspeed?(c) If the professor has 30 of his students independentlyrun the same experiment, each with a different groupof white mice, what is the probability that at least oneof these…
An organization published an article stating that in any one-year period, approximately 7.5 percent of adults in a country suffer from depression or a depressive illness. Suppose that in a survey of 100 people in a certain town, six of them suffered from depression or a depressive illness. Conduct a hypothesis test to determine if the true proportion of people in that town suffering from depression or a depressive illness is lower than the percent in the general adult population in the country.
A manufacturer of nickel-hydrogen batteries randomly selects 100 nickel plates for test cells, cycles them a specified number of times, and determines that 14 of the plates have blistered.a. Does this provide compelling evidence for concluding that more than 10% of all plates blister under such circumstances? State and test the appropriate hypotheses using a significance level of .05. In reaching your conclusion, what type of error might you have committed?b. If it is really the case that 15% of all plates blister under these circumstances and a sample size of 100 is used, how likely is it that the null hypothesis of part (a) will not be rejected by the level .05 test?Answer this question for a sample size of 200.c. How many plates would have to be tested to have B(.15) 5 .10 for the test of part (a)?
In random samples, 46 of 400 tulip bulbs from onenursery failed to bloom and 18 of 200 tulip bulbs fromanother nursery failed to bloom. Use the χ2 statistic totest the null hypothesis θ1 = θ2 against the alternativehypothesis θ1 Z θ2 at the 0.05 level of significance.
Production records indicate that in normal operation for a certain electronic component, 93% have no faults, 5% have one fault, and 2% have more than one fault. For a random sample of 500 of these components from a week’s output, 458 were found to have no faults; 30, to have one fault; and 12, to have more than one fault. Test, at the 5% level, the null hypothesis that the quality of the output from this week conforms to the usual pattern.

Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the population mean response for X=2. _______≤μY|X=2≤_____________ (Round to two decimal places as needed.)
Suppose a random sample of 110 companies taken in 2005 showed that 26 offered high-deductible health insurance plans to their workers. A separate random sample of 120 firms taken in 2006 showed that 31 offered high-deductible health insurance plans to their workers. Based on the sample results, can you conclude that there is a higher proportion of companies offering high-deductible health insurance plans to their workers in 2006 than in 2005? Conduct your hypothesis test at a level of significance α=0.02. Let p1 be the population proportion from 2006, and let p2 be the population proportion from 2005. F. H0: p1−p2≤0 HA: p1−p2>0 Determine the critical value(s). z Subscript alpha zα =2.052.05 (already done) (Use a comma to separate answers as needed. Round to two decimal places as needed.) Calculate the test statistic. z=_____ (Round to four decimal places as needed.)
An organization published an article stating that in any one-year period, approximately 11.5 percent of adults in a country suffer from depression or a depressive illness. Suppose that in a survey of 100 people in a certain town, nine of them suffered from depression or a depressive illness. Conduct a hypothesis test to determine if the true proportion of people in that town suffering from depression or a depressive illness is lower than the percent in the general adult population in the country.
