4. Conceptual Question: A one sample t-test is conducted for a data set and you fail to reject the null hypothesis
at a =.05. If you conducted the same hypothesis test, but use a =.01 what would be the outcome of the t-test?
Q3. If the null hypothesis is not rejected when the null hypothesis is in error, what type of error, if any, has been made?

- The following problem submitted by Daniel Hahn of Blairstown, Iowa, appeared in the Ask Marilyn column of Parade magazine. Source: Parade magazine. You discover two booths at a carnival. Each is tended by an honest man with a pair of covered coin shakers. In each shaker is a single coin, and you are allowed to bet upon the chance that both coins in that booths shakers are heads after the man in the booth shakes them, does an inspection, and can tell you that at least one of the shakers contains a head. The difference is that the man in the first booth always looks inside both of his shakers, whereas the man in the second booth looks inside only one of the shakers. Where will you stand the best chance?arrow_forwardQuestion 5 (10 marks) a. Write the null and alternative hypothesis for the following and determine if it is a two-tailed, a left-tailed or a right-tailed test. i. A researcher is studying the effects of radical exercise program on knee surgery patients. There is a good chance the therapy will improve recovery time, but there's also the possibility it will make it worse. Average recovery times for knee surgery patients is 8.2 weeks. ii.

Suppose that a national survey finds that 73 percent of restaurant employees say that work stress has a negative impact on their personal lives. A random sample of 200 employees of a large restaurant chain finds that 141 employees say that work stress has a negative impact on their personal lives. a. Formulate the null and alternative hypotheses needed to attempt to provide evidence that the percentage of work-stressed employees for the restaurant chain differs from the national percentage. b.

These two statements are called the null and the alternative hypotheses. Usually, the researcher hopes the sample evidence will be in favor of the alternative hypothesis, the new theory. It is important to be able to state the theories that are being put to a test. Do a minority of Michigan residents clear snow from sidewalks before 9 am after snow has fallen?For this scenario, write out the hypotheses to be put to the test and define the parameter of interest in context of the problem.

If the sample is used for a hypothesis test, what does the null hypothesis ( H 0) put forth about the treatment? a. The treatment multiplies each anxiety score by a constant. b.
