A candidate for political office wants to determine if there is a difference in his popularity between men and women. To test the claim of this difference, he conducts a survey of voters. The sample contains 250 men and 250 women, of which 110 of the men and 130 of the women favor his candidacy. Do these values indicate a difference in popularity? Use a 0.01 significance level. Hypothesis Statements Но Pm Pw Type "equals", "greater than" , "less than", or "not equal to" HA: Pm Pw Type "equals", "greater than" , "less than", or "not equal to" Z-stat = Round your answer to 2 decimal place. p-value = Decision: Type Retain Ho or Reject Ho

You are conducting a study to see if the proportion of voters who prefer Candidate A is significantly different from 61% at a significance level of αα = 0.025. According to your sample, 32 out of 54 potential voters prefer Candidate A.

in 2010, shortly before a country's midterm elections, people in that country were dissatisfied with government an59%of adults in the country thought that a third major party was needed. In a recent poll 62%of 1111 adults in the country felt the same way. At the 10%significance level, do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the percentage of all adults in the country who now think that a third major party is needed has changed from that in 2010? Use the one-proportion z-test to perform the appropriate hypothesis test. Question content area bottom Part 1 What are the hypotheses for the one-proportion z-test? H0:p= ; Ha:p not equals≠ What is the test statistic? z= (Round to two decimal places as needed.) Identify the P-value. The P-value is What is the correct conclusion for the hypothesis test? A. Do not reject H0; the data do not provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the percentage has changed from 59%.
Suppose a poll is taken that shows that 281 out of 500 randomly selected, independent people believe the rich should pay more taxes than they do. Test the hypothesis that a majority (more than 50%) believe the rich should pay more taxes than they do. Use a significance level of 0.05.
Assume that matched pairs of data from a poll of Internet users who were asked if they make travel plans through the Internet result in 341 positive signs, 283 negative signs, and 29 ties when the value of the second variable is subtracted from the corresponding value of the first variable. Use the sign test with a 0.05 significance level to test the null hypothesis of no difference. Does the null hypothesis of no difference hold? A. Since the P-value is less than the significance level, reject the null hypothesis of no difference. B. Since the P-value is greater than the significance level, reject the null hypothesis of no difference. C. Since the P-value is less than the significance level, fail to reject the null hypothesis of no difference. D. Since the P-value is greater than the significance level, fail to reject the null hypothesis of no difference.
A medical researcher claims that less than 24% of adults in a certain country are smokers. In a random sample of 250 adults from that country, 18% say that they are smokers. At the significance level, is there enough evidence to support the researcher’s claim? Find the p-value and interpret its meaning Decide whether to reject or fail to reject the null using the p-value approach. Make an interpretation of your decision in the context of the claim.

A large manufacturing company claims that less than 10% of its customers make a complaint about the company’s products. Test this claim at the 10% significance level, if a survey found that 29 out of a random sample of 320 of the company’s customers made a complaint about the company’s products.
An automobile company produces vehicles in 4 different colors: black, white, red and turquoise. The claim of the automobile company is that at the 0.01 significance level, there will be an equal demand for automobile colors. For the research, 100 people were asked for their opinions, 8 people stated that they would prefer a black, 13 people a white, 24 a red, 55 a turquoise car. Accordingly, what is the table value to be used in the test of the claim, what is the calculated value?
. A food company is planning to market a new flavor of ice cream. However, before marketing the flavor, the company wants to determine what percentage of all people like the flavor. The company's management decides that it will market the new flavor only if more than 35% of the people like it. The company's research department selected a random sample of 400 people and asked them to taste the flavor. Of the 400 people, 112 said that they liked it. Testing at the 3% significance level, can you conclude that the company should market the flavor? Perform a complete hypothesis and write a complete conclusion in words.
