For the situation described below, indicate whether it makes more sense to use a relatively large significance level (such as α = 0.10) or a relatively small significance level (such as α = 0.01).

The accompanying table shows results of challenged referee calls in a major tennis tournament. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the gender of the tennis player is independent of whether a call is overturned.
Kevin, a Human Resources professional, would like to make the claim that the average hourly wage for administrative workers at his company is less than $9.69. Kevin samples 15 workers and obtains a sample mean of $8.80 per hour. At the 1% significance level, should Kevin reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis given the sample data below?
Determine whether the alternative hypothesis is supported at a 0.05 significance level. would B be correct?
A grassroots group opposed to a proposed increase in the gas tax claimed that the increase would hurt working-class people the most, since they commute the farthest to work. Suppose that the group randomly surveyed 24 individuals and asked them their daily one-way commuting mileage. The results are in Table below. Using a 5% significance level, test the hypothesis that the three mean commuting mileages are the same. working-class professional (middle incomes) professional (wealthy) 17.8 16.5 8.5 26.7 17.4 6.3 49.4 22.0 4.6 9.4 7.4 12.6 65.4 9.4 11.0 47.1 2.1 28.6 19.5 6.4 15.4 51.2 13.9 9.3
Since an instant replay system for tennis was introduced at a major tournament, men challenged 1403 referee calls, with the result that 417 of the calls were overturned. Women challenged 741 refereecalls, and 215 of the calls were overturned. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that men and women have equal success in challenging calls.
A health insurance company wants to determine if more than 25% of US residents have been to a hospital emergency room within the past year. It was found that in a sample of 1000 people, 28% indicated that they had been to an emergency room within the past year. With a significance level of 0.01, is there evidence to suggest that the proportion of US residents that have been to the emergency room in the past year is actually higher than 25%?
The City of South Lake Tahoe, CA, has an Asian population of 1,419 people, out of a total population of 23,609. Suppose that a survey of 1,419 self-reported Asians in the Manhattan, NY, area yielded the data in the table below. Conduct a goodness-of-fit test to determine if the the self-reported sub-groups of Asians in the Manhattan area fit that of the Lake Tahoe area. (Use a significance level of 0.05.)

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.
