management dean claims that out of 14,700 students who took the midterm examination, 10,016 received a leakage of the test. To validate this claim, a random sample of 800 has been selected, and 506 of them had received an examination leakage. At 1% significance level, is there sufficient evidence to reject the dean’s claim? a. Use the critical-value approach. b. Use the p-value method

A management dean claims that out of 14,700 students who took the midterm examination, 10,016 received a leakage of the test. To validate this claim, a random sample of 800 has been selected, and 506 of them had received an examination leakage. At 1% significance level, is there sufficient evidence to reject the dean’s claim? a. Use the critical-value approach.b. Use the ?-value method.
A well-known brokerage firm executive claimed that at least 90% of investors are currently confident of meeting their investment goals. An XYZ Investor Optimism Survey, conducted over a two week period, found that in a sample of 800 people, 88% of them said they are confident of meeting their goals. What practical conclusion can we make about the claim? What would be our formal conclusion if we used a 0.01 significance level?
In a nationally representative sample of 1,668 adult Americans, 510 indicated that they had checked their credit score within the last 12 months. Suppose of the 510 people that had checked their credit report within the last 12 months, 39% had done so as part of their regular financial planning. Does this provide convincing evidence that more than one-third of adult Americans who have checked their credit scores within the past 12 months did so as part of regular financial planning? Carry out a test using a significance level of 0.01. Find the test statistic and P-value. (Use a table or SALT. Round your test statistic to two decimal places and your P-value to four decimal places.) z=P-value= State the conclusion in the problem context. Fail to reject H0. We have convincing evidence that more than one-third of adult Americans who have checked their credit scores within the past 12 months did so as part of regular financial planning.Fail to reject H0. We do not have convincing evidence…
An author argues that more American-born baseball players have birth dates in the months immediately following July 31 because that was the age cutoff date for nonschool baseball leagues. The table below lists months of births for a sample of American-born baseball players and foreign-born baseball players. Using a 0.01 significance level, is there sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that months of births of baseball players are independent of whether they are born in America? Do the data appear to support the author's claim? Jan. Feb. March April May June July Aug. Sept. Oct. Nov. Dec.

An author argues that more American-born baseball players have birth dates in the months immediately following July 31 because that was the age cutoff date for nonschool baseball leagues. The table below lists months of births for a sample of American-born baseball players and foreign-born baseball players. Using a 0.01 significance level, is there sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that months of births of baseball players are independent of whether they are born in America? Do the data appear to support the author's claim? a. Identify the test statistic. (Round to three decimal places as needed.) b. Identify the P-value. (Round to three decimal places as needed.)
In a studyy 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. 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. a) What is the null hypothesis? b) What is the alternative hypothesis? c) What is the value of the standard score for the sample proportion? d) What is the P-value? e) Describe a type I error for this test. f) Describe a type II error for this test.
Determine whether the alternative hypothesis is supported at a 0.05 significance level. would B be correct?
