Chapter 8: Q. 9.37 (page 364)

This exercise contain graphs portraying the decision criterion for a one-mean 2-test. The curve in each graph is the normal curve for the test statistic under the assumption that the null hypothesis is true. For each exercise, determine the

a. rejection region.

c. critical value(s).

b. nonrejection region.

d. significance level.

e. Construct a graph similar to that in Fig. 9.3 on page 361 that depicts your results from parts (a)-(d).

f. Identify the hypothesis test as two tailed, left tailed or right tailed.

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The rejection regions are z<-2.33

(b) The non rejection region is z>-2.33

(c)The critical values for the test are z=-2.33

(d) The significance level is 0.01.

(e)

(f) Here the hypothesis is left-tailed test.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given

The curve in each graph is the normal curve for the test statistic under the assumption that the null hypothesis is true.

02

Part(a) Step 2. Determine the rejection region

From the above graph it is clear that is that the rejection regions arez<-2.33

03

Part (b) Step 3.  Determine the non-rejection region 

From the above graph it is clear that is that the non- rejection regions arez>-2.33.

04

Part(c) Step 4. Determine the critical values.

The critical values for the test arez0=-2.33.

05

Part( d) Step 5. Determine the significance level

The graph shows the critical region in the one-tail so the area under the rejection region is the significance level. That is,伪=0.01.

06

Part(e) Step 6. Construct a graph similar to that in Fig. 9.3 on page 361 that depicts your results from parts (a)-(d). 

The graph that depicts critical region, non critical region and critical value is shown below:

07

Part (f) Step 7. Identify the hypothesis test as two tailed, left tailed or right tailed.

Here the hypothesis is left-tailed test.

Testing Claims About Proportions. In Exercises 9鈥�32, 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. Use the P-value method unless your instructor specifies otherwise. Use the normal distribution as an approximation to the binomial distribution, as described in Part 1 of this section.

Medical Malpractice In a study of 1228 randomly selected medical malpractice lawsuits, it was found that 856 of them were dropped or dismissed (based on data from the Physicians Insurers Association of America). Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that most medical malpractice lawsuits are dropped or dismissed. Should this be comforting to physicians?

P-Values. In Exercises 17鈥�20, do the following:

a. Identify the hypothesis test as being two-tailed, left-tailed, or right-tailed.

b. Find the P-value. (See Figure 8-3 on page 364.)

c. Using a significance level of 伪 = 0.05, should we reject H0or should we fail to reject H0?

The test statistic of z = -2.50 is obtained when testing the claim that p<0.75

Testing Claims About Proportions. In Exercises 9鈥�32, 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. Use the P-value method unless your instructor specifies otherwise. Use the normal distribution as an approximation to the binomial distribution, as described in Part 1 of this section.

Mendelian Genetics When Mendel conducted his famous genetics experiments with peas, one sample of offspring consisted of 428 green peas and 152 yellow peas. Use a 0.01 significance level to test Mendel鈥檚 claim that under the same circumstances, 25% of offspring peas will be yellow. What can we conclude about Mendel鈥檚 claim?

In Exercises 9鈥�12, refer to the exercise identified. Make subjective estimates to decide whether results are significantly low or significantly high, then state a conclusion about the original claim. For example, if the claim is that a coin favours heads and sample results consist of 11 heads in 20 flips, conclude that there is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the coin favours heads (because it is easy to get 11 heads in 20 flips by chance with a fair coin).

Exercise 5 鈥淥nline Data鈥�

Testing Hypotheses. In Exercises 13鈥�24, assume that a simple random sample has been and test the given claim. Unless specified by your instructor, use either the P-value method or the critical value method for testing hypotheses. Identify the null and alternative hypotheses, test statistic, P-value (or range of P-values), or critical value(s), and state the final conclusion that addresses the original claim.

Course Evaluations Data Set 17 鈥淐ourse Evaluations鈥� in Appendix B includes data from student evaluations of courses. The summary statistics are n = 93, x = 3.91, s = 0.53. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the population of student course evaluations has a mean equal to 4.00.
