Radiation in Baby Teeth Listed below are amounts of strontium-90 (in millibecquerels, or mBq, per gram of calcium) in a simple random sample of baby teeth obtained from Pennsylvania residents and New York residents born after 1979 (based on data from “An Unexpected Rise in Strontium-90 in U.S. Deciduous Teeth in the 1990s,” by Mangano et al., Science of the Total Environment). Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the

Question 1. Let u denote the true average radioactivity level (picocuries per liter). The
value 5 pci/L is considered the dividing line between safe and unsafe water. Would you
recommend testing Ho: μ = 5 versus Ha: > 5 or Ho μ = 5 versus Ha: μ 5. A type II error in this case involves
deciding the water is safe when it isn't. This is a very serious error, so a test which ensures
that this error is highly unlikely is desirable. We prefer that the most serious error be a type
II error because it can be explicitly controlled.
One should test Ho: μ = 5 versus Ha> 5. A type I error in this case involves deciding
the water is safe when it isn't. This is a very serious error, so a test which ensures that this
error is highly unlikely is desirable. We prefer that the most serious error be a type I error
because it can be explicitly controlled.

- Pi- P2 Z. = %3D SE Suppose a drug company is developing a vaccine, designed to protect against a particular virus. The company states that the vaccine will be equally effective for men and women. In its initial stage, a researcher selects a random sample of 200 men and 100 women independently. At the end of the study, 15 of the men and 10 of the women showed symptoms of the virus after taking the vaccine. Is there enough evidence to conclude that there is a significant difference in the proportions of men and women who show symptoms of the virus after taking the vaccine?
