Two types of phone operating system are being tested to determine

if there is a difference in the proportions of system failures (crashes). Fifteen out of a random sample of 150 phones with OS1had system failures within the first eight hours of operation. Nine out of another random sample of 150 phones with OS2had system failures within the first eight hours of operation. OS2is believed to be more stable (have fewer crashes) than OS1.

What can you conclude about the two operating systems?

Short Answer

Expert verified

There is insufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis at the 5 percent level of significance, thus the data do not reveal that OS2has fewer system failures thanOS1.

Step by step solution

01

Given information  

Phone operating systemsOS1andOS2.

02

Conclusion about the two operating systems 

The level of significance is at 5% that is α=0.05.

The output of the previous exercise 10.49 is :

If α<pis a positive number, the null hypothesis is not rejected.

There is insufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis at the 5%level of significance, thus the data do not reveal that OS2has fewer system failures than localid="1652985249407" OS1.

The mean number of English courses taken in a two–year time period by male and female college students is believed
to be about the same. An experiment is conducted and data are collected from 29 males and 16 females. The males took an
average of three English courses with a standard deviation of 0.8. The females took an average of four English courses with
a standard deviation of 1.0. Are the means statistically the same?

Draw the graph of p-value

Use the following information to answer the next twelve exercises. In the recent Census, three percent of the U.S. population reported being of two or more races. However, the percent varies tremendously from state to state. Suppose that two random surveys are conducted. In the first random survey, out of 1,000 North Dakotans, only nine people reported being of two or more races. In the second random survey, out of 500 Nevadans, 17 people reported being of two or more races. Conduct a hypothesis test to determine if the population percents are the same for the two states or if the percent for Nevada is statistically higher than for North Dakota.
Is this a test of means or proportions?

What is the sample mean difference?

Five ball players think they can throw the same distance with their dominant hand (throwing) and off-hand (catching hand). The data were collected and recorded in the table given below. Conduct a hypothesis test to determine whether the mean difference in distances between the dominant and off-hand is significant. Test at the 5%level.
