Is there a link between watching television and aggressive acts in teenagers? Arandom sample of families with teenagers was obtained from two counties inupstate New York. A total of 707 teenagers (one from each family) participatedin the study. The study compared the amount of TV watched by the teens in atypical day (classified as either minimal (less than one hour per day) or moderate(more than one hour per day), to whether the teenager had committed anyaggressive acts (according to school and police reports). A two-way table of thedata is shown below.Minimal TVModerate TVTotal(Less than one(At least one hourhour per day)per day)Has documentedaggressive actsNo documentedaggressive acts515415983465548Total88619707QUESTIONS:1.

In a study of smokers who tried to quit smoking with nicotine patch therapy, 39 were smoking one year after the treatment, and 32 were not smoking one year after the treatment (based on data from. We want to use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that among smokers who try to quit with nicotine patch therapy, the majority are smoking a year after the treatment.
Are sexually active teenagers any better informed about AIDS and other potential health problems related to sex? A 15-item test of general knowledge about sex and health was administered to random samples of teens who are sexually inactive, teens who are sexually active but only with a single partner ("going steady"), and teens who are sexually active with more than one partner. Is there any significant difference in the test scores?
An online clothing retailer is testing a new e-mail campaign by sending one version of the e-mail with the word “free” in the subject line (version A) to a group of 1,500 customers and another version of the e-mail with word “discount” in the subject line (version B) to a different group of 1500 customers. After tracking the responses to the two versions of the e-mail advertising, the retailer finds that 75 responded to version A and 105 responded to version B. At 0.05 significance level, can it be concluded that the response rate for version B is higher than the response rate to version A What is your decision? Enter “R” if your decision is to reject the null hypotheses. Enter “F” if the decision is fail to/do not reject the null hypotheses. Your answer (R/F) is: Which of the followings is the most appropriate conclusion for the hypotheses test? Enter the number corresponding to the most appropriate conclusion in the answer box. For example, if statement number 2 is the most…

. Although there is a popular belief that herbal remedies such as Ginkgo biloba and Ginseng may improve learning and memory in healthy adults, these effects are usually not supported by wellcontrolled research (Persson, Bringlov, Nilsson, and Nyberg, 2004). In a typical study, a researcher obtains a sample of n = 16 participants and has each person take the herbal supplements every day for 90 days. At the end of the 90 days, each person takes a standardized memory test. For the general population, scores from the test form a normal distribution with a mean of μ = 50 and a standard deviation of σ = 12. The sample of research participants had an average of M = 54. Assuming a two-tailed test, state the null hypothesis in a sentence that includes the two variables being examined. Using the standard 4-step procedure, conduct a two-tailed hypothesis test with α = .05 to evaluate the effect of the supplements.
A sociologist wants to investigate the question, "Is there a relationship between texting during class and grade-point-average (GPA) among high school seniors in a large district?" Which study design is most appropriate? Before the semester starts, randomly select 40 seniors from each high school who do not text during class. Assign 20 to the texting treatment group (text three or more times during every class meeting) and 20 to the control group (no texting during class). At the end of the semester, obtain each student’s GPA from the appropriate admissions and records office. Compare the GPA of students who routinely text during class to the GPA of students who do not text during class. Before the semester starts, randomly select 40 seniors from each high school who do not text during class. Assign 20 to the texting treatment group (text three or more times during every class meeting) and 20 to the control group (no texting during class). At the end of the semester,…
In 2002 the Supreme Court ruled that schools could require random drug tests of students participating in competitive after-school activities such as athletics. Does drug testing reduce use of illegal drugs? A study compared two similar high schools in Oregon. Wahtonka High School tested athletes at random and Warrenton High School did not. In a confidential survey, 5 of 140 athletes at Wahtonka and 26 of 143 athletes at Warrenton said they were using drugs. Regard these athletes as SRSs from the populations of athletes at similar schools with and without drug testing. Wahtonka sample size: 142 Wahtonka drug users: 6 Warrenton sample size: 145 Warrenton drug users: 27(c) Give the plus four 96% confidence interval for the difference between the proportion of athletes using drugs at schools with and without testing.

The research department at the home office of New Hampshire Insurance conducts on-going research on the causes of automobile accidents, the characteristics of the drivers, and so on. A random sample of 400 policies written on single persons revealed 120 had at least one accident in the previous three-year period. Similarly, a sample of 600 policies written on married persons revealed that 150 had been in at least one accident. At the .05 significance level, is there a significant difference in the proportions of single and married persons having an accident during a three year period? Determine the p-value.
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 winter of an epidemic ﬂu, the parents of 2000 babies were surveyed by researchers at a well-known pharmaceutical company to determine if the company’s new medicine was effective after two days. Among 120 babies who had the ﬂu and were given the medicine, 29 were cured within two days. Among 280 babies who had the ﬂu but were not given the medicine, 56 recovered within two days. Is there any signiﬁcant indication that supports the company’s claim of the effectiveness of the medicine? Use a significance level of 0.10 A. What type of Hypothesis Testing should be used? B. What are the null and alternative hypothesis? C. What are the significance level and type of test? D. What is the critical value? E. What is the standardized test statistic? F. What is the Statistical Decision?
