a. State the hypotheses and identify the claim.
b. Find the critical value(s).
c. Compute the test value.
d. Make the decision.

24. Medical Supply Sales According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, approximately equal numbers of men and women are engaged in sales and related occupations. Although that may be true for total numbers, perhaps the proportions differ by industry. A random sample of 200 salespersons from the industrial sector indicated that 114 were men, and in the medical supply sector, 80 of 200 were men. At the 0.05 level of significance, can we conclude that the proportion of men in industrial sales differs from the proportion of men in medical supply sales?

Determine whether a statement is false. OD. None of the abovearrow_forwardDetermine the first step of hypothesis testing, and explain the procedure and logic of this step. Choose the correct answer below. A. The first step is to determine the level of significance at which to conduct the hypothesis test. The conventional levels of significance used are 5% and 1%, which are described as the 0.05 significance level and the 0.01 significance level, respectively. When a sample score is so extreme that researchers reject the null hypothesis, the result is said to be statistically significant. B. The first step is to restate the question as a research hypothesis and a null hypothesis about the populations. Since researchers are interested in the results in terms of the population, it is useful to restate the research question in terms of populations. The research hypothesis represents the research question being asked. C. The first step is to determine the characteristics of the comparison distribution.

The measure of reliability is a strength rating based on the quality of the sample used to make the inference; it is a measure of the validity of the inference. B. The measure of reliability separates the science of statistics from the art of fortune-telling; it provides a bound on the estimation error. C. The measure of reliability is a strength rating based on the sources providing the inference. The better the sources, the stronger the rating, and the more likely that the inference is true. D. The measure of reliability is a value (probability) assigned by the individual making the inference to indicate the accuracy of their inference; it is based on what they believe the strength of their research was and the quality of the sample. Without this value, there is no way to differentiate the validity of the inference from pure guessing.arrow_forward
