An organization published an article stating that in any one-year period, approximately 8.2 percent of adults in a country suffer from depression or a depressive illness. Suppose that in a survey of 100 people in a certain town, six of them suffered from depression or a depressive illness. Conduct a hypothesis test to determine if the true proportion of people in that town suffering from depression or a depressive illness is lower than the percent in the general adult population in the country.
p' =
Calculate ?x.
Find the p-value.
A certain financial services company uses surveys of adults age 18 and older to determine if personal financial fitness is changing over time. A recent sample of 1,000 adults showed 410 indicating that their financial security was more than fair. Suppose that just a year before, a sample of 1,200 adults showed 420 indicating that their financial security was more than fair.
(a)
State the hypotheses that can be used to test for a significant difference between the population proportions for the two years. (Let p1 = population proportion most recently saying financial security more than fair and p2 = population proportion from the year before saying financial security more than fair. Enter != for ≠ as needed.)
H0:
p1−p2=0
Ha:
p1−p2!=0
(b)
Conduct the hypothesis test and compute the p-value. At a 0.05 level of significance, what is your conclusion?
Find the value of the test statistic. (Use
p1 − p2.
Round your answer to two decimal places.)

- A university wants to investigate 'low-performance' modules - where low-performance is defined as a module with an average final mark lower than 50 in a given year. To test whether ECO242 is a 'low-performance' module, a researcher gathers data on final marks for 31 first ECO242 students from past years. If the mean and variance of this sample is estimated, respectively, as 48 and 38, test the hypothesis, at α=0.05, that the true mean is 50 against the hypothesis that it is less than 50.

This effect was qualified by the expected interaction with [perseverance], F (1,108) = 4.52, p = .036, n2 = .05". What size are the effects for the main effect of depletion and for the interaction between depletion and perseverance, according to Cohen's conventions? a. These are small- to -medium effects b. These are non existent effects c. These are large effects d.

Car and Taxi Ages When the author visited Dublin, Ireland (home of Guinness Brewery employee William Gosset, who first developed the t distribution), he recorded the ages of randomly selected passenger cars and randomly selected taxis. The ages can be found from the license plates. (There is no end to the fun of traveling with the author.) The ages (in years) are listed below. We might expect that taxis would be newer, so test the claim that the mean age of cars is greater than the mean age of taxis.arrow_forward
- A researcher is concerned that his new antihypertensive medication may be causing insomnia in some of his patients. Suppose he gathers an SRS of 65 patients treated with the study drug with a sample average of 6.6 hours of sleep and a σ=1.1. Assuming that insomnia can be quantified as an average of 4.5 hours of sleep, can we determine with 95% confidence that his drug avoids diagnosis of insomnia as a side-effect?arrow_forwardIn Exercises 5–20, assume that the two samples are independent simple random samples selected from normally distributed populations, and do not assume that the population standard deviations are equal.

IQ and Lead Exposure Data Set 7 “IQ and Lead” in Appendix B lists full IQ scores for a random sample of subjects with low lead levels in their blood and another random sample of subjects with high lead levels in their blood. The statistics are summarized below. a. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the mean IQ score of people with low blood lead levels is higher than the mean IQ score of people with high blood lead levels. b. Construct a confidence interval appropriate for the hypothesis test in part (a). c.

Explain your answer, and explain why it makes intuitive sense. The range would be with 625 donors compared to a sample of 2,500 donors since the standard deviation of the sampling distribution would be . This makes intuitive sense because if fewer donors are included in the sample, the proportion will be reliable as an estimate of the proportion.arrow_forward
