"The Craven," by Mark Salangsang

Once upon a morning dreary

In stats class I was weak and weary.

Pondering over last night鈥檚 homework

Whose answers were now on the board

This I did and nothing more.

While I nodded nearly napping

Suddenly, there came a tapping.

As someone gently rapping,

Rapping my head as I snore.

Quoth the teacher, 鈥淪leep no more.鈥

鈥淚n every class you fall asleep,鈥

The teacher said, his voice was deep.

鈥淪o a tally I鈥檝e begun to keep

Of every class you nap and snore.

The percentage being forty-four.鈥

鈥淢y dear teacher I must confess,

While sleeping is what I do best.

The percentage, I think, must be less,

A percentage less than forty-four.鈥

This I said and nothing more.

鈥淲e鈥檒l see,鈥 he said and walked away,

And fifty classes from that day

He counted till the month of May

The classes in which I napped and snored.

The number he found was twenty-four.

At a significance level of 0.05,

Please tell me am I still alive?

Or did my grade just take a dive

Plunging down beneath the floor?

Upon thee I hereby implore.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The null hypothesis is not rejected and the proportion of children sleeping at class is 44%.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

Sample size, n=50

According to the teacher, the percentage of students who slept in the class is44%

02

Explanation

Hypothesis: The null hypothesis states that 44%of children sleep in class, while the alternate hypothesis states that less than 44%of children sleep in class.

H0:p=0.44H0:p<0.44

The normal distribution is:

N0.44,0.440.5650

The Z test statistic is,

Where n is the sample size of 50respondents:

z=p-pp1-pnP=xn=2450=0.48

Substitute the Pvalue in the Z test statistic

z=ppp1-pn=0.48-0.44p1-pn=0.040.0701=0.571

Over the past few decades, public health officials have examined the link between weight concerns and teen girls' smoking. Researchers surveyed a group of 273 randomly selected teen girls living in Massachusetts (between 12 and 15 years old). After four years the girls were surveyed again. Sixty-three said they smoked to stay thin. Is there good evidence that more than thirty percent of teen girls smoke to stay thin? The alternative hypothesis is:

a.p<0.30b.p0.30c.p0.30d.p>0.30

According to the Center for Disease Control website, in 2011 at least18%of high school students have smoked a cigarette. An Introduction to Statistics class in Davies County,KY conducted a hypothesis test at the local high school (a medium sized鈥揳pproximately 1,200 students鈥搒mall city demographic) to determine if the local high school鈥檚 percentage was lower. One hundred fifty students were chosen at random and surveyed. Of the150 students surveyed, 82have smoked. Use a significance level of 0.05 and using appropriate statistical evidence, conduct a hypothesis test and state the conclusions.

Previously, an organization reported that teenagers spent 4.5 hours per week, on average, on the phone. The organization

thinks that, currently, the mean is higher. Fifteen randomly chosen teenagers were asked how many hours per week they

spend on the phone. The sample mean was 4.75 hours with a sample standard deviation of 2.0. Conduct a hypothesis test.

The null and alternative hypotheses are:

a.Ho:x=4.5,Ha:x>4.5b.Ho:4.5,Ha:<4.5c.Ho:=4.75,Ha:>4.75d.Ho:=4.5,Ha:>4.5

The Weather Underground reported that the mean amount of summer rainfall for the northeastern US is at least 11.52 inches. Ten cities in the northeast are randomly selected and the mean rainfall amount is calculated to be 7.42 inches with a standard deviation of 1.3 inches. At the =0.05 level, can it be concluded that the mean rainfall was below the reported average? What if =0.01? Assume the amount of summer rainfall follows a normal distribution.

Previously, an organization reported that teenagers spent 4.5 hours per week, on average, on the phone. The organization thinks that, currently, the mean is higher. Fifteen randomly chosen teenagers were asked how many hours per week they spend on the phone. The sample mean was 4.75 hours with a sample standard deviation of 2.0. Conduct a hypothesis test, the TypeIerror is:

a. to conclude that the current mean hours per week is higher than 4.5, when in fact, it is higher

b. to conclude that the current mean hours per week is higher than 4.5, when in fact, it is the same

c. to conclude that the mean hours per week currently is 4.5, when in fact, it is higher

d. to conclude that the mean hours per week currently is no higher than , when in fact, it is not higher
