A group of toxicologists investigated the impact of exposure to low oxygen on the mortality of rice weevils. In an experiment, 31,386 of 31,421 rice weevils were found dead after exposure to nitrogen gas for 4 days. In a second experiment, 23,515 of 23,676 rice weevils were found dead after exposure to nitrogen gas for 3.5 days. Conduct a test of hypothesis to compare the mortality rates of adult rice weevils exposed to nitrogen at the two exposure times. Is there a significant difference (at a= 0.10) in the mortality rates?

- A 2012 survey of 443 American adults indicates that 16% of cell phone owners do their browsing on their phone rather than a computer or other device. According to an online article, a report from a mobile research company indicates that 38% of Chinese mobile web users only access the internet through their cell phones. We wish to conduct a hypothesis test to determine if these data provide strong evidence that the proportion of Americans who only use their cell phones to access the internet is less than the Chinese proportion of 38%. (a) The standard error based on the null hypothesis is:_______ (b) Our data indicates a proportion of Americans who use their phones to browse is p-hat=0.16 . We need to use this to find a test statistic (in this case called a z-score). Recall that a test statistic is a measure for how many standard errors our data point is away from our assumed mean.test statistic = _________Historically, the proportion of people who trade in their old car to a car dealer when purchasing a new car is 48%. Over the previous six months, in a sample of 115 new car buyers, 46 have traded in their old car. To determine whether the proportion of new car buyers that trade in their old car has this is sickly significantly decreased, what is the null and alternative hypothesis?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.
- Of a random sample of 100 college students, 35 expected to achieve a higher standard of living than their parents, 43 expected a lower standard of living, and 22 expected about the same standard of living as their parents. Do these data present strong evidence that, for the population of students, more expect a lower standard of living compared with their parents than expect a higher standard of living?A well-known study of 22,000 male physicians was conducted to determine if taking aspirin daily reduces the chances of a heart attack. Half of the physicians were given a regular dose of aspirin while the other half was given placebos. Six years later, among those who took aspirin, 104 suffered heart attacks while among those who took placebos, 189 suffered heart attacks. Does it appear that the aspirin can reduce the number of heart attacks among the sample group that took aspirin? Use α = 0.05.Historically, the proportion of people who trade in their old car to a car dealer when purchasing a new car is 48%. Over the previous six months, in a sample of 115 new car buyers, 46 have traded in their old car. To determine (at the 10% level of significance) whether the proportion of new car buyers that trade in their old car has this is  statistically significantly decreased, what can you conclude concerning the null hypothesis? A) reject the null hypothesis Or B) fail to reject the null hypothesis
- A certain prescription drug is known to produce undersirable side effects in 30% of all patients who use the drug. Among a random sample of 6 patients using the drug, find the proabability of no patient having the undersirable side effects.. The National Institute of Mental Health published an article stating that in any one-year period, approximately 9.5 percent of American adults suffer from depression or a depressive illness. Suppose that in a survey of 100 people in a certain town, seven of them suffered from depression or a depressive illness. If you were conducting 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 American population, what would the null and alternative hypotheses be?A researcher took a random sample of 200 new mothers in the United States (Group 1) and found that 16% of them experienced some form of postpartum depression. Another random sample of 200 new mothers in France (Group 2), where mothers receive 16 weeks of paid maternity leave, found that 11% experienced some form of postpartum depression. Can it be concluded that the percent of women in the United States experience more postpartum depression than the percent of women in France? Use α=0.05. Select the correct alternative hypothesis and decision
- The National Institute of Mental Health published an article stating that in any one-year period, approximately 9.5 percent of American adults suffer from depression or a depressive illness. Suppose that in a survey of 100 people in a certain town, seven 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 American population. find the p valueA researcher is comparing the occurrence of nausea as a side-effect in two brands of medication: Brand A and Brand B. For a random sample of 150 Brand A users, 66 experienced nausea as a side-effect. For a random sample of 200 Brand B users, 118 experienced nausea as a side-effect. Can the researcher conclude that the proportion of all Brand A users who experience nausea as a side-effect is different from the proportion of all Brand B users who experience nausea as a side-effect. For the hypothesis testing scenario above, the researcher concludes that the two proportions are different at the 0.01 significance level. Compute the 99% confidence interval to estimate the difference.A randomized study was performed to determine whether a diet of processed meats causes a higher proportion of incidents of breast cancer. Researchers compared high intake versus low intake diets of processed meats for women with breast cancer and found the following results shown in the two-way table below: Breast Cancer No Breast Cancer Total High Intake processed meat 93 157 250 Low Intake processed meat 67 163 230 Conduct a hypothesis test for this problem, using for the proportion with diet high in processed meat who got breast cancer and for the proportion of women with diet low in processed meat who got breast cancer. PLEASE HELP WITH THE FOLLOWING - Find the p-value. Write generic conclusion. Write conclusion in context.
