In a study of 420,124 cell phone users, 119 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 0.001 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 H,: p>0.00034 B. Ho: 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 H4:p= 0.00034 OF. Ho: p#0.00034 H,: p= 0.00034 What is the test statistic? (Round to two decimal places as needed.)

In a study, 28 adults with mild periodontal disease are assessed before and 6 months after implementation of a dental-education program intended to promote better oral hygiene. After 6 months, periodontal status improved in 15 patients, declined in 8, and remained the same in 5. 9.1 Assess the impact of the program statistically (use a two-sided test). Suppose patients are graded on the degree of change in periodontal status on a 7-point scale, with +3 indicating the greatest improvement, 0 indicating no change, and −3 indicating the greatest decline. The data are given in Table 9.9. 9.2 What nonparametric test can be used to determine whether a significant change in periodontal status has occurred over time? 9.3 Implement the procedure in Problem 9.2 and report a p-value.
In a study, 28 adults with mild periodontal disease are assessed before and 6 months after implementation of a dental-education program intended to promote better oral hygiene. After 6 months, periodontal status improved in 15 patients, declined in 8, and remained the same in 5.9.1 Assess the impact of the program statistically (use a two-sided test).
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.
In order to investigate a claim that the average time required for the county fire department to respond to a reported fire is greater than 15 minutes, county staff determined the response times for 40 randomly selected fire reports. The data was used to test H0H0: μ = 15 versus HaHa: μ > 15 and the computed P‐value was 0.12. If a 0.05 level of significance is used, what conclusions can be drawn? There is convincing evidence that the mean response time is 15 minutes (or less). There is convincing evidence that the mean response time is greater than 15 minutes. There is not convincing evidence that the mean response time is greater than 15 minutes.

After 6 months, periodontal status improved in15 patients, declined in 8, and remained the same in 5. A) Assess the impact of the program statistically (use a two-sided test). Suppose patients are graded on the degree of change in periodontal status on a 7-point scale, with +3 indicating the greatest improvement, 0 indicating no change, and −3 indicating the greatest decline. The data are given in Table 9.9.
Does St. John wort (an herb) have a siginifact effect in treating major depression? A study looked at 340 adult outpatients suffering as measured by their HAM-Dscore, randomly assiging each subject to either a placebo, St.John's wort, or a second active treatment for comparison. The study found the diiference in treating major depression as measured by improvement in HAM-D scores between St.John's wort and the placebo was not statistically significant This means that: A. a difference this big could easily occur just by chance even if St. John's wort does not better than the placebo B. We cannot make a 95 percent confidence statement C.The placebo makes no difference in the subjects' depression D. The study was badly designed
According to the U.S. Transportation Security Administration (TSA), 2% of the 771,556,886 travelers who utilized 440 federalized airports in 2017 waited more than 20 minutes in the TSA security line. The File TSAWaitTimes contains waiting Times in TSA security lines at a major U.S. airport for a recent random sample 10,531 travelers. Use these Data to test the hypothesis that the proportion of travelers waiting more than 20 minutes in TSA security lines at this airport is the same as the national proportion at α = .05 Data given: Time In Line Mean 11.99496 Median 11.97536 Standard Deviation 3.992043 Confidence Level(95.0%) 0.076253 Provide a 95% confidence interval with interpretation
In a study of cell phone use and brain hemispheric dominance, an internet survey was e-mailed to 5000 subjects randomly selected from an online group involved with ears. 717 surveys were returned. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that the return rate is less than 15%.
In a sample of 150 hospital emergency admissions with a certain diagnosis, 128 listed vomiting as a presenting symptom. Do these data provide sufficient evidence to indicate, at the 0.01 level ofsignificance, that the population proportion is less than 0.92? What is the null hypothesis? What is the test statistic? What is the p-value? What is the conclusion?
In a study of 420,055 cell phone users, 107 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.
