Testing Claims About Proportions. In Exercises 7–22, test the given claim. Identify the null hypothesis, alternative hypothesis, test statistic, P-value or critical value(s), then state the conclusion about the null hypothesis, as well as the final conclusion that addresses the original claim.
License Plate Laws The Chapter Problem involved passenger cars in Connecticut and passenger cars in New York, but here we consider passenger cars and commercial trucks. Among 2049 Connecticut passenger cars, 239 had only rear license plates. Among 334 Connecticut trucks, 45 had only rear license plates (based on samples collected by the author). A reasonable hypothesis is that passenger car owners violate license plate laws at a higher rate than owners of commercial trucks. Use a 0.05 significance level to test that hypothesis.
a. Test the claim using a hypothesis test.
b. Test the claim by constructing an appropriate confidence interval.

- The chi-square goodness-of-fit test provides a method for performing a hypothesis test about the distribution of a variable that has c possible values. If the number of possible values is 2, that is, c = 2, the chi-square goodness-of-fit test is equivalent to a procedure that you studied earlier. a. Which procedure is that? Explain your answer. b. Suppose that you want to perform a hypothesis test to decide whether the proportion of a population that has a specified attribute is different from p0. Discuss the method for performing such a test if you use (1) the one-proportionarrow_forwardTechnology. In Exercises 9–12, test the given claim by using the display provided from technology.

Old Faithful Data Set 23 “Old Faithful” in Appendix B includes data from 250 random eruptions of the Old Faithful geyser. The National Park Service makes predictions of times to the next eruption, and the data set includes the errors (minutes) in those predictions. The accompanying Statdisk display results from using the prediction errors (minutes) to test the claim that the mean prediction error is equal to zero. Comment on the accuracy of the predictions.

- Rock-paper-scissors is a hand game played by two or more people where players choose to sign either rock, paper, or scissors; with their hands. We would like to test if players choose between these three options randomly, or if certain options are favored above others. What hypothesis test should we conduct to answer this research question?

Choose the correct answer below. A. The second step is to figure out the probability of getting a particular result if the research hypothesis is true. In this process, one wants to determine the probability of getting a sample score as extreme as the one found if the sample were from a population with a distribution corresponding to the research hypothesis being true. B. The second step is to determine if the test should use a directional hypothesis or a nondirectional hypothesis. Once this is determined, the correct cutoff sample scores can be obtained. C. The second step is to determine the characteristics of the comparison distribution. The overall logic of hypothesis testing involves figuring out the probability of getting a particular result if the null hypothesis is true.

- A one sample hypothesis test examines whether a sample significantly differs from a population. However, in “real” life, we rarely know the descriptive statistics of a population, which is why we do inferential statistics. Because we don’t have access to a data set that has information for a population, in the lab we are going to make a few assumptions in order to review one-sample hypothesis testing. One-Sample Hypothesis Testing Let’s assume that the United States population is evenly split; so exactly half of the U.S. are men and the other half of the U.S. are women. In SPSS, the variable sex has been coded as 1=male, 2=female. Recode it so that it equals 1=female, 0=male. Then, this variable’s mean can be interpreted as a proportion. Therefore, if we were to poll the entire U.S. population, we would expect a population mean of around .5, or 50% female. Is there a significant difference between the gender representation in our 2018 GSS sample and our hypothetical U.S. population?…arrow_forwardA study was done to ascertain whether the population average final exam percentages of Statistics and Economics are the same or not.

- Perform a statistical test for the given problem. Follow the steps in hypothesis testing when you present your results. To find out whether a new serum would arrest leukemia, 16 patients, who had all reached an advanced stage of the disease, were selected. Eight patients received the treatment and eight did not. The survival was taken from the time the experiment was conducted. Without Treatment: 1.8, 2.9, 3.3, 3.1, 2.4, 1.5, 1.5, 1.6 With Treatment: 3.9, 4.8, 4.7, 4.9, 4.2, 4.5, 5.5, 4.2arrow_forwardA medical researcher wishes to try three different techniques to lower cholesterol levels of patients with high cholesterol levels.
