Question
In a study of 420,088 cell phone users, 131 subjects developed cancer of the brain or nervous system. Test the claim of a somewhat common belief that such cancers are affected by cell phone use. That is, test the claim that cell phone users
develop cancer of the brain or nervous system at a rate that is different from the rate of 0.0340% for people who do not use cell phones. Because this issue has such great importance, use a 0.005 significance level. Identify the null hypothesis,
alternative hypothesis, test statistic, P-value, conclusion about the null hypothesis, and final conclusion that addresses the original claim. Use the P-value method and the normal distribution as an approximation to the binomial distribution.
Which of the following is the hypothesis test to be conducted?
O A. Ho: p<0.00034
O B. Ho: p#0.00034
H1: p=0.00034
H,: p=0.00034
%3D
O C. Ho: p=0.00034
O D. Ho: p>0.00034
H1:p=0.00034
H: p<0.00034
E. Ho: p=0.00034
H4: p>0.00034
O F. Ho: p= 0.00034
H,: p#0.00034
What is the test statistic?
(Round to two decimal places as needed.)
What is the P-value?
P-value =
(Round to four decimal places as needed.)
What is the conclusion on the null hypothesis?
O A. Reject the null hypothesis because the P-value is greater than the significance level, a.
B. Reject the null hypothesis because the P-value is less than or equal to the significance level, a.
O C. Fail to reject the null hypothesis because the P-value is greater than the significance level, a.
D. Fail to reject the null hypothesis because the P-value is less than or equal to the significance level, a.
