Suppose you test the claim that people (on average) spend less than 10 seconds washing their hands, using the following hypotheses: H.:µ > 10 HA:H < 10 where u is the average time (seconds) spent washing hands. Suppose your hypothesis test provides statistically significant evidence that the average time-spent-washing-hands is under 10 seconds, but the true average is actually 13 seconds. What type of error, if any, was made? O type 1 error type 2 error O no error was made O not information to know

The NAEP considers that a national average of 283 is an acceptable performance. Using α = .05, run a two-tail t-test for one sample to test Ho: µ=283 for the 2019 scores. Report the t-obt, df, and p-values. Would you reject the null hypothesis that the 2019 scores come from a population with average 283? If this is the case, does it come from a population from larger or smaller average?
A consumer group is investigating a producer of diet meals to examine if its prepackaged meals actually contain the advertised 6 ounces of protein in each package. Assume the weights of all the prepackaged meals are normally distributed. Based on the following data, is there any evidence that the meals do not contain the advertised amount of protein? Run the appropriate test at a 5% level of significance. A. What are the appropriate hypotheses? B. What is the critical value(s) of the test? C. What is the test statistic? D. What is the decision rule using the critical values? E. What is the p-value of the test? G. What is your decision?
Historically, the proportion of people who trade in their old car to a car dealer when purchasing a new car is 48%. Over the previous six months, in a sample of 115 new car buyers, 46 have traded in their old car. To determine (at the 10% level of significance) whether the proportion of new car buyers that trade in their old car has this is statistically significantly decreased, what can you conclude concerning the null hypothesis? A) reject the null hypothesis Or B) fail to reject the null hypothesis
Based on her own experiences in court, a prosecutor believes that some judges provide more severe punishments than other judges for people convicted of domestic violence. Five of the most recent domestic violence sentences (in years) handed down by three judges are recorded below. Judge 1 Judge 2 Judge 3 1 3 3 1 2 5 3 4 5 2 3 6 2 4 4 Using this information, test the null hypothesis at the .05 level of significance that judges do not vary in the sentence lengths imposed on individuals convicted of domestic violence. In so doing, please: (1) identify the research and null hypotheses, (2) the critical value needed to reject the null, (3) the decision that you made upon analyzing the data, and (4) the conclusion you have drawn based on the decision you have made.
A researcher is concerned that his new antihypertensive medication may be causing insomnia in some of his patients. Suppose he gathers an SRS of 65 patients treated with the study drug with a sample average of 6.6 hours of sleep and a σ=1.1. Assuming that insomnia can be quantified as an average of 4.5 hours of sleep, can we determine with 95% confidence that his drug avoids diagnosis of insomnia as a side-effect?
A major credit card company is interested in the proportion of individuals who use a competitor’s credit card. Their null hypothesis is H0: p=0.65H0: p=0.65, and based on a sample they find a sample proportion of 0.70 and a pp-value of 0.053. Is there convincing statistical evidence at the 0.05 level of significance that the true proportion of individuals who use the competitor’s card is actually greater than 0.65 ? Yes, because the sample proportion 0.70 is greater than the hypothesized proportion 0.65. A Yes, because the pp-value 0.053 is greater than the significance level 0.05. B No, because the sample proportion 0.70 is greater than the hypothesized proportion 0.65. C No, since the sample proportion 0.70 is exactly 0.05 away from the hypothesized proportion 0.65. D No, because the pp-value 0.053 is greater than the significance level 0.05.
Consider the following: In general, when people diet they typically lose 10 lbs. (?σ = 2). A random sample of 16 people on the keto diet lost 15 lbs. Do people on the keto diet lose more or less weight than people on diets in general? 3. What is the Null Hypothesis? a)On average, weight loss in the keto diet sample does not differ from weight loss in the population of dieters in general. (H0: X-bar = Mu)) b)On average, weight loss in the keto diet sample does not differ from weight loss in the population of dieters in general. (H0: X-bar does not equal Mu) c)On average, weight loss in the keto diet sample differs from weight loss in the population of dieters in general. (H0: X-bar does not equal Mu) d)On average, weight loss in the keto diet sample differs from weight loss in the population of dieters in general. (H0: X-bar = Mu)
The National Institute of Mental Health published an article stating that in any one-year period, approximately 9.5 percent of American adults suffer from depression or a depressive illness. Suppose that in a survey of 100 people in a certain town, seven of them suffered from depression or a depressive illness. Conduct a hypothesis test to determine if the true proportion of people in that town suffering from depression or a depressive illness is lower than the percent in the general adult American population. find the p value
