A large research project showed that in a sample of 750 adults, 60 of them experienced a midlife crisis . Use this data to test the claim that the percentage of adults who experienced midlife crisis is less than 10%. Use (alpha)= 0.05 .
A random sample of 50 COS students contained 13 that owned an iPhone. A random sample of 200 Fresno State students contained 70 that owned an iPhone. Use these data to test the claim that the proportion of COS students who own an iPhone is the same as the proportion of Fresno State students who own an iPhone at the 0.05 level of significance.
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%
The NAEP considers that a national average of 283 is an acceptable performance. Using α = .05, run a two-tail t-test for one sample to test Ho: µ=283 for the 2019 scores. Report the t-obt, df, and p-values. Would you reject the null hypothesis that the 2019 scores come from a population with average 283? If this is the case, does it come from a population from larger or smaller average?
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 value
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 significantly less than or equal to 0.25? Let alpha = 0.05.
Each day for 200 days, a quality engineer samples 144 fuses rated at 15 A and measures the amperage at which they burn out. He performs a hypothesis test of H0 : μ = 15 versus H1 : μ ≠ 15, where μ is the mean burnout amperage of the fuses manufactured that day. a) On 10 of the 200 days, H0 is rejected at the 5% level. Does this provide conclusive evidence that the mean burnout amperage was different from 15 A on at least one of the 200 days? Explain. b) Would the answer to part (a) be different if H0 had been rejected on 20 of the 200 days? Explain.

The number of Muslims continues to grow throughout the world, and they are currently thesecond-largest religious group in the world. Knowing that this group has been the target of falsebeliefs about their religion, a researcher is interested in whether people who have moreinteractions with Muslim people are less likely to believe negative statements about Islam. To dothis, they surveyed a large sample of participants across Western Europe and asked themquestions about how frequently they interact with Muslim people as well as how much theyagreed with negative statements about Islam. What statistical test should be used to determine ifthere if how frequently survey participants interact with Muslim people predicts how likely theyare to agree with a negative statement about Islam? Assume parametric assumptions are met. A. Is this a relationship test or a difference test? Explain your rationale. B.
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. Calculate σx. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)/ Show the formula set-up. State the distribution to use for the hypothesis test. Find the p-value. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
