In a clinical trial, 26 out of 896 patients taking a prescription drug daily complained of flulike symptoms. Suppose that it is known that 2.5% of patients taking competing drugs complain of flulike symptoms. Is there sufficient evidence to concludethat more than 2.5% of this drug's users experience flulike symptoms as a side effect at the a = 0.01 level of significance?Because npo (1- Po) =10, the sample size is5% of the population size, and the samplethe requirements for testing the hypothesissatisfied.(Round to one decimal place as needed.)What are the null and alternative hypotheses?Ho:versus H1:(Type integers or decimals. Do not round.)Find the test statistic, zo.Zo(Round to two decimal places as needed.)%3DFind the P-value.P-value =(Round to three decimal places as needed.)Choose the correct conclusion below.A. Since P-value a, do not reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is not sufficient evidence that more than 2.5% of the users experience flulike symptoms.C. Since P-value a, reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is not sufficient evidence that more than 2.5% of the users experience flulike symptoms.

In a clinical trial, 17 out of 900 patients taking a prescription drug complaint of flu like symptoms. Suppose that it is known that 1.3% of the patients taking competing drugs complain of flu like symptoms. Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that more than 1.3% of the drugs user experience food like symptoms as a side effect at the 0.01 level of significance? what are the normal and alternative hypothesis?
A large manufacturing company investigated the service it received from its suppliers and discovered that, in the past, 41% of all material shipments were received late. However, the company recently installed a just-in-time system in which suppliers are linked more closely to the manufacturing process.A random sample of 150 deliveries since the just-in-time system was installed reveals that 29 deliveries were late. If we want to test whether the proportion of late deliveries was reduced significantly at α = 0.10. Calculate the null and alternative hypothese.
A large manufacturing company investigated the service it received from its suppliers and discovered that, in the past, 44% of all material shipments were received late. However, the company recently installed a just-in-time system in which suppliers are linked more closely to the manufacturing process. A random sample of 170 deliveries since the just-in-time system was installed reveals that 34 deliveries were late. If we want to test whether the proportion of late deliveries was reduced signicantly at = 0:01 the null and alternative hypotheses are a. Null hypothesis (H0) b. Alternative hypothesis (HA)
In a clinical trial, 29 out of 853 patients taking a prescription drug daily complained of flulike symptoms. Suppose that it is known that 2.9% of patients taking competing drugs complain of flulike symptoms. Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that more than 2.9% of this drug's users experience flulike symptoms as a side effect at the α=0.1 level of significance. What is the P-value?
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
In a controlled laboratory experiment, scientists at the University of Minnesota discovered that 25% of a certain strain of rats subjected to a 20% coffee bean diet and then force-fed a powerful cancer-causing chemical later developed cancerous tumors. Would we have reason to believe that the proportion of rats developing tumors when subjected to this diet has increased if the experiment were repeated and 16 of 48 rats developed tumors? Use a 0.05 level of significance.

An LED light bulb manufacturer claims that the average lifespan of its 60-watt LED light bulbs is 43,000 hours.A corporate watchdog group is suspicious of the company's claim and thinks that the true average lifespan of the 60-watt LED light bulbs produced by the company may be less than the advertised 43,000 hours. The group collected and tested a random sample of 240 light bulbs and found the average lifespan of the sample was 42,958 hours.Use the p-value method to test the hypothesis that the mean lifespan of this brand of 60-watt LED light bulb is less than 43,000 hours, using α=0.025α=0.025. Assume the standard deviation of the lifespan of all such light bulbs is known to be 430 hours.State the null and alternative hypothesis for this test.H0:H0: H1:H1: Determine if this test is left-tailed, right-tailed, or two-tailed. right-tailed two-tailed left-tailed Should the standard normal (zz) distribution or Student's (tt) distribution be used for this…

English Air continually monitors the proportion of overweight items checked by passengers on its flights in order to evaluate the appropriateness of their overweight fees. Recently, a random sample of 231 items checked on English Air flights to North America contained 44 overweight items, and an independent, random sample of 248 items checked on English Air flights within Europe contained 29 overweight items. Based on these samples, can we conclude, at the 0.10 level of significance, that there is a difference between the proportion p1 of all items on English Air flights to North America that are overweight and the proportion p2 of all items on English Air flights within Europe that are overweight? Perform a two-tailed test. Then complete the parts below. Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places and round your answers as specified in the parts below. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.)
. A taxi company has been using Brand A tires, and the distribution of kilometers to wear-out has been found to be approximately normal with mean =114,000 and σ = 11,600. Now it tries 12 tires of Brand B and finds a sample mean 117,200. Test at the 5% level of significance to see whether there is a significant difference (positive or negative) in kilometers to wear-out between Brand A and Brand B. In the problem above, if the true kilometers to wear-out is 114,000, what is the 95% confidence interval for sample means? First show how to get the critical z values.
