- A news station reports that 60% of the people in a certain community are in favor of requiring masks to be warn when residents are not In their homes. A survey is conducted to verify this claim and found that 25 out of 44 people surveyed agreed that masks should be warn when people are out in public. Test the claim at an alpha of 0.10.A public research company says that 63% of U.S. adults are concerned about their jobs because of the current state of the economy. A social services group surveys 500 adults and has a result of 70%. Using an alpha of.05 test the hypothesis claim of 63%We tested to see if people who consumed caffeine had a lower average reaction time than those who didn’t consume caffeine at the alpha = 0.08 level. Assume we found a p-value of 0.5437. Which below would be an appropriate conclusion and interpretation? With an alpha of 0.08, and a p-value of 0.5437, we fail to reject the null and state we have insufficient evidence to support that the true average reaction time of caffeine consumers was less than that of non-caffeine consumers.

- A survey of 90 recently delivered women on the rolls of a county welfare department revealed that 27 had a history of intrapartum or postpartum infection. Can we conclude that the population proportion with a history of intrapartum or postpartum infection is less than or equal to 0.25. Let alpha = 0.05We tested to see if the true percentage of caffeine drinkers who smoke is greater than than non-caffeine drinkers who smoke at the alpha = 0.05 level.

With an alpha of 0.05, and a p-value of 0.002189, we reject the null and state we have sufficient evidence to support that the true proportion of caffeine drinkers who smoke is greater than that of non-caffeine drinking smokers.

- 31% of all pygmy softshell tortoises have stripes on their shells. A herpetologist in Cititon collects a sample of 28 pygmy softshell tortoises and finds that 8 of them have stripes on their shells. Is there enough evidence to conclude, at a significance of alpha = 0.05, that the proportion of pygmy softshell tortoises in Cititon with stripes on their shells is less than 31%? What is the claim? What is the null hypothesis? What is the alternative hypothesis? What is the test statistic? What is/are the critical value(s)? Do we reject the null hypothesis? What conclusion do we draw? What is the P-value for the problem above?A survey of 90 recently delivered women on the rolls of a county welfare department revealed that 27 had a history of intrapartum or postpartum infection.

Let alpha = 0.05.Is it more conservative to use an alpha level of .01 or an alpha level of .05? Would beta be higher for an alpha of .05 or for an alpha of .01?
- Researchers interested in lead exposure due to car exhaust sampled the blood of 52 police officers subjected to constant inhalation of automobile exhaust fumes while working traffic enforcement in a primarily urban environment. The blood samples of these officers had an average lead concentration of 124.32 µg/l and an SD of 37.74 µg/l; a previous study of individuals from a nearby suburb, with no history of exposure, found an average blood level concentration of 35 µg/l. Write down the hypotheses that would be appropriate for testing if the police officers appear to have been exposed to a higher concentration of lead. Explicitly state and check all conditions necessary for inference on these data. Test the hypothesis that the downtown police officers have a higher lead exposure than the group in the previous study. Interpret your results in context. Based on your preceding result, without performing a calculation, would a 99% confidence interval for the average blood concentration…In a survey of 460 drivers from the South, 397 wear a seat belt.
