- 32 How to interpret the result according to the above data? a) Since p < 0.05, Ho is accepted. B) Since p < 0.5, Ho is accepted. NS) Ho is rejected because p < 0.5. D) Ho is rejected since p < 0.05. TO) Since p > 0.05, Ho is accepted.arrow_forwardIn 2001, the polls found that 81% of American adults believed that there was a conspiracy in the death of President Kennedy. Assume a recent poll asked 1160 American adults if they believe there was a conspiracy in the assassination and it found that 897 believe there was a conspiracy. Does the data show that the proportion of Americans who believe in this conspiracy is now lower? Test at the 9% level. Check those assumptions: 1. npnp = which is 2. n(1−p)n(1-p) = which is 3. NN = which is The formula set up of the test statistic is as follows.: (Leave any values that were given as fractions as fractions) z=pˆ−p√p(1−p)n=z=p̂-pp(1-p)n= Final answer for the test statistic from technology. Round to 2 decimal places: z =arrow_forward1. An online website on pregnancy testing says that *Usually, if all care has been taken, [home) pregnancy tests are 97% accurate." [R314] Assume that "97% accurate" means a false positive rate and a false negative rate of 3%. Since a woman is unlikely to use a home pregnancy test unless she thinks she's probably pregnant, assume that 80% of the women who try one are in fact pregnant. Explain why a positive test indicates pregnancy more than 99% of the time even thought the false positive rate is 3%.arrow_forward

It falls within ±2 SD of the mean and is thus not likely to be due to chance 3. It falls outside ±3 SD of the mean and is thus likely to be due to chance 4. It falls outside ±3 SD of the mean and is thus not likely to be due to chancearrow_forward60) The National Association of Realtors would like to test the hypothesis that 26% of home buyers in the state of Florida are foreigners. A random sample of 110 home buyers was selected and the number of foreigners was counted. Assume that the true proportion of home buyers that are foreigners is 0.216.

She finds a study on 3000 random attorneys that says that 78% of attorneys are hired after they finish their degree. Is this enough information to say that the percentage of attorneys is greater then what was though before? 19) For the situation in #18 what is the only type of error that can occur? 20) Interpret your error from #19 in wordsarrow_forward
