The desired percentage of SiO2 in a certain type of aluminous cement is 5.5. To test whether the true average percentage is 5.5 for a particular production facility, 16 independently obtained samples are analyzed. Suppose that the percentage of SiO2 in a sample is normally distributed with ? = 0.32 and that x = 5.21. (Use ? = 0.05.) (a) Does this indicate conclusively that the true average percentage differs from 5.5?State the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses. H0: ? = 5.5Ha: ? ≠ 5.5H0: ? = 5.5Ha: ? ≥ 5.5 H0: ? = 5.5Ha: ? < 5.5H0: ? = 5.5Ha: ? > 5.5 Calculate the test statistic and determine the P-value. (Round your test statistic to two decimal places and your P-value to four decimal places.) z = P-value = State the conclusion in the problem context. Do not reject the null hypothesis.

A researcher who wants to know whether the proportion of male births in a hospital is different from the established baseline of 51.07%, would like to test the following hypotheses: Ho:P = 0.51 vs. Ha :P = does not equal 0.51 a) Is the alternative hypothesis upper tail, lower tail, or two tailed? b) What do you conclude if the test results p-value of 0.03 at alpha value = 5% c) What do you conclude if the test results p-value of 0.08 at alpha value = 10%
Data from the 2014 General Social Survey (GSS) show that out of n=1,606 adult respondents, the proportion who reported having voted for Barack Obama in the 2008 presidential election was 0.61 Q: If I calculate a z test static of 4.84, and my alpha = 0.05, what decision should I make about the hypothesis? (Calculate the p-value for a 2-sided test to make your decision.) Options: A: fail to reject the null hypothesis that the proportion of American adults who voted for Obama in 2008 was 0.55 B: reject the null hypothesis that the proportion of American adults who voted for Obama in 2008 was 0.55 C: Reject the alternative hypothesis that the proportion of American Adults who voted for Obama in 2008 was not equal to 0.55 D: Fail to reject the alternative hypothesis that the proportion of American adults who voted for Obama in 2008 was not equal to 0.55
In a test of H0:p=0.4 against Ha:p≠0.4, a sample of size 100 produces z=1.28 for the value of the test statistic. Thus the p-value of the test is approximately equal to?
In a test of H0: p = .43 versus Ha: p ≠ .43, a sample of size 1500 leads to a p-value of 0.087. Which of the following must be true if a = 0.05? A. The Ho should be rejected at the 5% level B. The Ho should fail to be rejected at the 5% level C. The Ho should be accepted at the 5% level
A question of medical interest is whether jogging leads to a reduction in systolic blood pressure. To learn about this question, eight non-jogging volunteers have agreed to begin a 1-month jogging program. At the end of the month, their blood pressures were determined and compared with earlier values. The data are presented in the Table 1. a. The appropriate hypotheses are: H0 :μ1−μ2 =0 versus Ha :μ1−μ2 /= (does not equal) 0 H0 :μ1−μ2 =0 versus Ha :μ1−μ2 <0 H0 :μ1−μ2 =0 versus Ha :μ1−μ2 >0 b. The value of test statistic is 1. 0.577 2. −0.577 3. 0.237 4. -0.237 c. The p−value of test is 1. 0.816 2. 0.408 3. 0.582 4. 0.291 d. At the significance level calculated in part (c), we conclude that jogging i. Leads to reduction in systolic blood pressureii. Does not lead to reduction in systolic blood pressure
A hypothesis test was conducted, at α = 0.05, to determine whether a certain chemical compound lasts longer than 30 seconds under a certain specified condition. The hypotheses used were: H0: µ = 30 Ha: µ > 30 A sample mean of 37.4 seconds was obtained from a sample of size n = 80. All statistical assumptions were met, and a p-value of p = 0.0089 was obtained. Which of the following is correct? a) If the null hypothesis were in reality true that the population mean was equal to 30, then the probability of observing a sample mean of 37.4 seconds from a sample of size n = 80 would be only .0089. b) If the null hypothesis were in reality false that the population mean was equal to 30, then the probability of observing a sample mean of 37.4 seconds (or less) from a sample of size n = 80 would be only .0089. c) If the null hypothesis were in reality true that the population mean was equal to 30, then the probability of observing a sample mean of 37.4 seconds (or greater) from…

We ask a random sample of 1000 New Zealanders their opinion on whether New Zealand should become a republic with a president replacing the Queen as head of state and 350 answer ‘yes’. We are testing the following pair of hypotheses for the value of p, the true proportion of New Zealanders who think that New Zealand should become a republic with a president replacing the Queen as head of state: H0: p = 0.40 Ha: p > 0.40 Select the correct value (to 3 decimal places) of the z-test statistic for this sample from the list below.

An SRS of 100 flights by Speedy Airlines showed that 64 were on time. An SRS of 100 flights by Happy Airlines showed that 80 were on time. Let pS be the proportion of on-time flights for all Speedy Airline flights, and let pH be the proportion of all on-time flights for all Happy Airlines flights. Is there evidence of a difference in the on-time rate for the two airlines? To determine this, you test the hypotheses H0 : pS – pH  0, Ha : pS – pH  0. The P-value of your test is 0.0117. Which of the following is an appropriate interpretation of the P-value? a. If the on-time rates for the two airlines are equal, there is a 0.0117 probability of getting samples with a difference as far or farther from zero as these samples. b. If the on-time rates for the two airlines are not equal, the probability of getting samples with a difference as far or farther from zero as these samples is 0.9883. c. The probability of making a Type I error is 0.0117. d. The probability of making a Type II error…
