Under current Major League Baseball rules, a baseball must weigh approximately 5 ounces. One team, who shall remain unidentified, is accusedof using "heavy" baseballs to enhance pitching velocity. An MLB executive weighs a random sample of 26 baseballs from that team's clubhouseand records the following summary statistics:y= 5.3 ouncess= 0.6 ouncesA hypothesis test is conducted based on the following null and alternative hypotheses:Ho: H=5 ouncesHA:H>5 ouncesUsing complete sentences, explain a Type I and Type Il error in context of this scenario.

Researchers interested in lead exposure due to car exhaust sampled the blood of 52 police officers subjected to constant inhalation of automobile exhaust fumes while working traffic enforcement in a primarily urban environment. The blood samples of these officers had an average lead concentration of 124.32 µg/l and an SD of 37.74 µg/l; a previous study of individuals from a nearby suburb, with no history of exposure, found an average blood level concentration of 35 µg/l. Write down the hypotheses that would be appropriate for testing if the police officers appear to have been exposed to a higher concentration of lead. Explicitly state and check all conditions necessary for inference on these data. Test the hypothesis that the downtown police officers have a higher lead exposure than the group in the previous study. Interpret your results in context. Based on your preceding result, without performing a calculation, would a 99% confidence interval for the average blood concentration…
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)

You are working on the standard KALLAX shelving unit that holds around 20 lbs per shelf. You adjust the reinforcers for the shelves and then test the first 15 units. On average, they held 26 lbs with a standard deviation of 2.2 lbs. Construct a hypothesis test with alpha of .05 to test if the new bolstered shelving units have a higher weight capacity.

Formulate the null and alternative hypothesis and identify the type of test. Tge manufacturer if a certain brand of cigarettes claims that the average nicotine cpntent does not exceed 2.5 mg. State the Ho and H1 in testing and determine what type of test to be utikized.
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?
