In a study of 420,109 cell phone users, 115 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,
fest 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, altemative 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
H: p<0.00034
H: p+0.00034
O C. Ho p> 0.00034
O D. Ho p+0.00034
H p=0.00034
H,: p=0.00034
O E. Ho p= 0.00034
H p>0.00034
OF. Ha p<0.00034
H1: 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. Fail to reject the null hypothesis because the P-value is less than or equal to the significance level, a.
O B. Reject the null hypothesis because the P-value is less than or equal to the significance level, a.
ns
O C. Fail to reject the null hypothesis because the P-value is greater than the significance level, a.
O D. Reject the null hypothesis because the P-value is greater than the significance level, a.
What is the final conclusion?
O A. There is sufficient evidence to support 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%.
O B. There is not sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of 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%
O C. There is not sufficient evidence to support 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%.
O D. There is sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of 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%
