Independent random samples of individuals showed that of 200 women, 40 own dogs, and of 175 men, 27 own dogs. We want to determine at α = 0.1 if there is a difference in the proportion of women who own dogs and the proportion of men who own dogs. Assume all test conditions are satisfied. What are the null and alternate hypotheses (write in equation/inequality form)

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 significantly less than or equal to 0.25? Let alpha = 0.05.
Use the following information for questions 1 and 2. Independent random samples of individuals showed that of 200 women, 40 own dogs, and of 175 men, 27 own dogs. We want to determine at α = 0.1 if there is a difference in the proportion of women who own dogs and the proportion of men who own dogs. Assume all test conditions are satisfied. What are the null and alternate hypotheses (write in equation/inequality form)?
Two researchers are testing the null hypothesis that a population proportion p is equal to 0.30, and the alternative hypothesis that π = 0.30. Both take samples of 100 observations. Researcher A finds a sample proportion of 0.29, and Researcher B finds a sample proportion of 0.34. For which researcher will the p-value of the test be smaller? Explain without actually doing any computations.
The mayor of a town believes that above 47% of the residents favor construction of a new bridge. Is there sufficient evidence at the 0.05 level to support the mayor's claim? State the null and alternative hypotheses for the above scenario.
According to research, of all U.S. households that owned at least one TV set, 83% had two or more sets. A local cable company canvassing the town to promote a new cable service found that of the 295 households visited, 230 had two or more TV sets. At (alpha) = 0.10, is there sufficient evidence to conclude that the proportion is less than the one in the report? A. State the hypotheses and identify the claim with the correct hypothesis. B. Find the critical value(s). C. Compute the test value. D. Make the decision. E. Summarize the results.
A local chess club claims that the length of time to play a game has a mean of 23 minutes or more. Write sentences describing type I and type II errors for a hypothesis test of this claim.

A random sample of n 1 equals 125individuals results in x 1 equals 40 successes. An independent sample of n 2 equals 160 individuals results in x 2 equals 60 successes. Does this represent sufficient evidence to conclude that p 1 less than p 2p at the α=0.01level of significance? Determine the null and alternative hypotheses.
A certain percentage of items produced have some defects. To estimate the defect rate p, a collection of 100 items sampled from production revealed that 10 items contained suchdefects.1. Formulate and test the appropriate null H0 and alternative hypotheses H1 to verify the claim that the defect rate is smaller than 0.15 at level α = 0.1 2. Find the P-value. Based on the P-value, can you reject H0 at level α = 0.01?

For the given scenario, determine the type of error that was made, if any. (Hint: Begin by determining the null and alternative hypotheses.) A pharmaceutical company claims only 2% as the percentage of people taking a particular drug that experience significant side effects. One researcher claims that the percentage of people taking a particular drug that experience significant side effects is less than 2%. The researcher conducts a hypothesis test and fails to reject the null hypothesis. Assume that in reality, the percentage of people taking a particular drug that experience significant side effects is 0.5%. Was an error made? If so, what type?
