Using Technology. In Exercises 5鈥�8, identify the indicated values or interpret the given display. Use the normal distribution as an approximation to the binomial distribution, as described in Part 1 of this section. Use 伪= 0.05 significance level and answer the following:

a. Is the test two-tailed, left-tailed, or right-tailed?

b. What is the test statistic?

c. What is the P-value?

d. What is the null hypothesis, and what do you conclude about it?

e. What is the final conclusion?

Cell Phone Ownership A Pew Research Center poll of 2076 randomly selected adults showed that 91% of them own cell phones. The following Minitab display results from a test of the claim that 92% of adults own cell phones.

Short Answer

Expert verified

a. The test is two-tailed.

b. The value of the test statistic (z-score) is equal to -1.69.

c. The p-value is equal to 0.091.

d. The null hypothesis is that the proportion of adults who own cell phones is equal to 0.92.The decision is fail to reject the null hypothesis.

e. There is not enough evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the proportion of adults who own cell phones is equal to 92%.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

It is given that in a survey, out of 2076 adults, 92% of them own cell phones.

02

Tail of the Test

a.

According to the given claim, the proportion of adults who own cell phones is equal to 92%.

The null hypothesis is represented as follows:

H0:p=0.92

The alternative hypothesis is represented as follows:

H1:p鈮�0.92

Since there is an unequal sign in the alternative hypothesis, the test is two-tailed.

03

Test Statistic

b.

The test statistic to test the given claim is the z-score.

Here, the value of the test statistic (z-score) is equal to -1.69.

04

P-Value

c.

The p-value corresponding to the z-score of -1.69 is given to be equal to 0.091.

05

Null hypothesis and its conclusion

d.

The null hypothesis for this test is as follows:

Null Hypothesis: The proportion of adults who own cell phones is equal to 92%.

Symbolically, H0:p=0.92where

p is the proportion of adults who own cell phones.

Here, the p-value equal to 0.091 is greater than the significance level of 0.05. Thus, the null hypothesis fails to be rejected.

06

Conclusion of the Test

e.

There is not enough evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the proportion of adults who own cell phones is equal to 92%.

Hypothesis Test with Known 蟽 How do the results from Exercise 13 鈥淐ourse Evaluations鈥� change if 蟽is known to be 0.53? Does the knowledge of 蟽 have much of an effect?

Testing Hypotheses. In Exercises 13鈥�24, assume that a simple random sample has been selected 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.

Cans of Coke Data Set 26 鈥淐ola Weights and Volumes鈥� in Appendix B includes volumes (ounces) of a sample of cans of regular Coke. The summary statistics are n = 36, x = 12.19 oz, s = 0.11 oz. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that cans of Coke have a mean volume of 12.00 ounces. Does it appear that consumers are being cheated?

Technology. In Exercises 9鈥�12, test the given claim by using the display provided from technology. Use a 0.05 significance level. 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.

Airport Data Speeds Data Set 32 鈥淎irport Data Speeds鈥� in Appendix B includes Sprint data speeds (mbps). The accompanying TI-83/84 Plus display results from using those data to test the claim that they are from a population having a mean less than 4.00 Mbps. Conduct the hypothesis test using these results.

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.

Eliquis The drug Eliquis (apixaban) is used to help prevent blood clots in certain patients. In clinical trials, among 5924 patients treated with Eliquis, 153 developed the adverse reaction of nausea (based on data from Bristol-Myers Squibb Co.). Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that 3% of Eliquis users develop nausea. Does nausea appear to be a problematic adverse reaction?

Test Statistics. In Exercises 13鈥�16, refer to the exercise identified and find the value of the test statistic. (Refer to Table 8-2 on page 362 to select the correct expression for evaluating the test statistic.)
