The data in Table 7–6 were collected in a clinical trial to evaluate a new compound designed to improve wound healing in trauma patients. The new compound was com- pared against a placebo. After treatment for 5 days with the new compound or placebo, the extent of wound heal- ing was measured. Is there a difference in the extent of wound healing between the treatments? (Hint: Are treat- ment and the percent wound healing independent?) Run the appropriate test at a 5% level of significance. Can you please show how to do it in excel.

You are conducting a study to see if the proportion of voters who prefer Candidate A is significantly more than 0.46. Your sample data produce the test statistic z=1.883. Find the p-value accurate to 4 decimal places.

We have seen that drinking tea appears to offer a strong boost to the immune system. In a study extending the results,' blood samples were taken on 5 participants before and after one week of drinking about five cups of tea a day (the participants did not drink tea before the study started). The before and after blood samples were exposed to e.coli bacteria, and production of interferon gamma, a molecule that fights bacteria, viruses, and tumors, was measured. Mean production went from 155 pg/mL before tea drinking to 448 pg/mL after tea drinking. The mean difference for the 5 subjects is 293 pg/mL with a standard deviation in the differences of 242. The paper implies that the use of the t-distribution is appropriate.

Refer to the data presented in Exercise 2.86. Note that there were 50% more accidents in the 25 to less than 30 age group than in the 20 to less than 25 age group. Does this suggest that the older group of drivers in this city is more accident- prone than the younger group? What other explanation might account for the difference in accident rates?

In 1995, it was determined that 78% of US citizens supported a ban on household aerosols.  Thinking that this proportion may have changed over the past few decades, a sample will be taken to test if a change has occurred. In a SRS of 400 citizens taken this year, 332 supported the ban.  Determine the value of the appropriate test statistic to perform this test. Round to 3 decimal places.

A company that has a 10% market share (they sell their product to 10% of all potential buyers) launches a marketing campaign. At the end of the campaign period, the company conducts a survey in order to assess whether its market share has increased. The result of the survey issued to 500 customers was 12.5%.h0= p=0.10, h1= p>0.10test statistic= 1.86P value= 0.0314 a. State your conclusion using ΅ = 0.05.b. What would be the potential Type I and Type II errors in this problem? Explain these possible errors in context.

In a recent year, some professional baseball player complained that umpires were calling more strikes than the rate of 61% called the previous year. At one point in the season, umpire Dan Morrison called strikes in 2231 out of 3581 pitches (based on data from USA Today. Úse a 0.10 significant level to test the claim that Morrison's strike rate is higher than 61%.
