In women, calcitonin levels decrease after menopause. A study to examine this was done in 1989 by Reginster et. al. They found the following results in pg/ml (do NOT use R): Before menopause: 86 104 74 86 86 50 83 71 119 83 After menopause: 42 25 51 72 Use a Mann-Whitney U test. Use α = .01. Do calcitonin levels drop after menopause? 3) (a) Repeat problem (2), but this time use a t-test (Welch's). Do NOT use R. Use α = .01. Are you surprised by the results? (b) Now use R and read the data into R and make q-q plots. Does this explain what happened? Only solve for bold

A survey of 90 recently delivered women on the rolls of a county welfare department revealed that 27 had a history of intrapartum or postpartum infection. Can we conclude that the population proportion with a history of intrapartum or postpartum infection is less than or equal to 0.25. Let alpha = 0.05
A researcher obtained a result of t(9)=1.22, p>.05 for their study using a one sample t-test. Are the results significant using an alpha level of .05 and how many participants were in the group?
Dr. Stevenson reported the following in a journal: “F (4, 106) = 10.09, p = .04.” Should Dr. Stevenson state that there are significant differences among the variable means at a .01 alpha level?
A nationwide study of undergraduate students reported that the mean number of drinks consumed per week during the spring semester is 7.96. The mean number of drinks consumed per week at USC is 7.64 (s.d.=2.55, N=412 Health services is concerned that USC students are consuming significantly more alcohol per week than the national average. Using an alpha level of .05, Is there sufficient evidence to be concerned? Be sure to select the correct critical value for the alternative hypothesis, and then use this evidence to make your conclusion
31% of all pygmy softshell tortoises have stripes on their shells. A herpetologist in Cititon collects a sample of 28 pygmy softshell tortoises and finds that 8 of them have stripes on their shells. Is there enough evidence to conclude, at a significance of alpha = 0.05, that the proportion of pygmy softshell tortoises in Cititon with stripes on their shells is less than 31%? What is the claim? What is the null hypothesis? What is the alternative hypothesis? What is the test statistic? What is/are the critical value(s)? Do we reject the null hypothesis? What conclusion do we draw? What is the P-value for the problem above?
A researcher believes that there is a difference in how cautious male stray cats and female stray cats are when approaching people. He knows that the stray cat population is 50% male and 50% female. In order to test this hypothesis, he visits 15 different areas where stray cats live and records the gender of the first cat to approach him. He finds that 11 of the 15 cats that approach him are male. Using a sign test and an alpha of .05: Calculate the p-vlaue (or significance) of the obtained value (Hint: in a two - tailed test make sure to double the p-value).
