A random sample of 80 poultry farms of one variety gave an average production of 240 eggs per bird. Another random sample of 50 poultry farms of another variety gave an average production of 195 eggs per bird. At a=0.05 is there sufficient evidence to support that there is a significant difference between the egg production of the two varieties of birds. Assume o1 =18 eggs and o2=15 eggs

A survey among the workers in a large manufacturing company was taken, in order to findout from which company the workers had purchased their mobile phones, and to find outwhether the choice of mobile phone company was related to the type of worker. The resultsare shown in the table below. ls there evidence, at 5% level, that the choice of Phone Company is independent of the type ofworker?
A medical research team conducted a study to test the effect of a cholesterol reducing medication. At the end of the study, the researcher found that out of the 4700 randomly selected subjects who took the medication, 301 died of heart diseases. Of the 4300 randomly selected subjects who took a placebo, 357 died of heart disease. At α = 0.01, can you conclude that the death rate due to heart disease is lower for the subjects who took the medication than those who took the placebo? d. Find the p-value and interpret its meaning? e. Decide whether to reject or fail to reject the null. f. Interpret the results in context of the claim. g. Make an inference of this claim using the Confidence Interval Method.

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 a 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. 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 level of police officers contain 35 µg/l? Based on your preceding result, without performing a calculation, would a 99% confidence interval for this difference contain 0? Explain why or why not.

A nationwide study of undergraduate students reported that the mean number of drinks consumed per week during the spring semester is 7.96. The mean number of drinks consumed per week at USC is 7.64 (s.d.=2.55, N=412 Health services is concerned that USC students are consuming significantly more alcohol per week than the national average. Using an alpha level of .05, Is there sufficient evidence to be concerned? Be sure to select the correct critical value for the alternative hypothesis, and then use this evidence to make your conclusion
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 .
In a winter with a flu epidemic, a well-known pharmaceutical company studied 2,000 babies to determine if the company's new drug was effective after two days. Among 120 babies who had the flu and were given the drug, 29 were cured within two days. Among 280 babies who had the flu but were not given the drug, 56 were cured within two days. Is there any significant indication to support the company's claim of the drug's effectiveness? Note:The exercise in the image is the original, it is in Spanish, but it is easy to understand.
A researcher did a one-tailed one-sample t-test to test the hypothesis that babies prefer the color blue over the color red. He collected a sample of 26 babies and presented them with a red plastic star and a blue plastic start for 12 seconds. The researcher measured the amount of time each baby spent watching the blue star out of the 12 seconds. What is the critical t value, assuming the alpha level used was .05?
A researcher hypothesizes that in a certain country the net annual growth of private sector purchases of government bonds, B, is positively related to the nominal rate of interest on the bonds, NI, and negatively related to the rate of inflation Π: Bt = a0 + a1NIt + a2Π t + ut Note that it may be hypothesized that B depends on the real rate of interest on bonds, R, where R = NI – Π. Using a sample of 56 annual observations, s/he estimates the following equations: (1) Bt = 0.43 + 0.90NIt - 0.97Πt R21 = 0.962, SSR1 = 2.20, QRESET(F1,52) = 16.6 (3.58) (8.80) (-1.05) (2) Bt = 0.44 + 0.94Rt R22 = 0.960, SSR2 = 2.22, QRESET(F1,53) = 0.9 (9.70) (16.7) (3) Bt = 0.44 + 1.14NIt SSR3 = 9.20, QRESET(F1,53) = 59.9 (8.84) (36.1) (4) NIt = 0.08 + 0.94Πt R24 = 0.997, SSR4 = 0.18, QRESET(F1,53) = 1.4…
