The seller of a loaded die claims it will favor the outcome 6. We don’t believe that claim and roll the die 200 times to test an appropriate hypothesis. Our p-value turns out to be 0.03.
a. What null and alternative hypotheses make sense here?
b. Explain what is wrong with each conclusion below:
- There’s a 3% chance that the die is fair.
- There’s a 97% chance that the die is fair.
c. Write a meaningful conclusion for this hypothesis test, using the significance level ɑ = 0.05.

Please don't copy another solution. Make it original! A survey of 430 randomly chosen adults found that 21% of the 222 men and 18% of the 208 women had purchased books online. A researcher used a Z Test Difference of Proportions to investigate this observed difference in proportions and calculated p-value 0.22. a. Each of the following conclusions is wrong. Briefly explain why. There is strong evidence that men are more likely than women to purchase books online. There is...

Two human traits controlled by a single gene are the
ability to roll one’s tongue and whether one’s ear lobes are free
or attached to the neck. Genetic theory says that people will have
neither one, one, or both of these traits in the ratio 1:3:3:9
(1/16—attached, noncurling; 3/16—attached, curling; 3/16—free,
noncurling; 9/16— free, curling). A biology class of 122 students
collected these data:
Are these data consistent with the genetic
theory?...

Please don't copy another solution. Make it original! A random sample of 1,000 adult U.S. citizens were surveyed; 210 of them indicated that playing the lottery would be the most practical way for them to accumulate $200,000 in net wealth in their lifetime. A journalist reporting this story asks one of their statistician friends if this survey provides convincing evidence that more than 20% of adult U.S. citizens believe that playing the lottery is the best strategy for accumulating such...

Please don't copy another solution. Make it original! Carpal tunnel syndrome (a painful wrist condition) can be treated with surgery or with a less-invasive wrist splint. A study of 176 patients was performed in 2002. Among the 88 patients that had surgery, 80% showed improvement after three months, but only 48% of those 88 patients who used the wrist splints showed improvement. a. To construct a confidence interval for the difference in the proportions, what conditions must be checked? b....

Please don't copy another solution. Make it original! Researchers interested in lead exposure due to car exhaust sampled the blood of 52 road construction workers subjected to constant inhalation of automobile exhaust fumes while working downtown in a city. The blood samples of these workers had an average lead concentration of 124.32 μg/l and a SD of 37.74 μg/l; a previous study of people from a nearby suburb, with no history of exposure, found an average blood level concentration of...

Please don't copy another solution. Make it original! Highway safety engineers test new road signs, hoping that increased reflectivity will make them more visible to drivers. Volunteers drive through a test course with several of the new- and old-style signs and rate which kind is more visible. a. State null and alternative hypotheses to test if the new road signs increase visibility. b. In this context, what would a Type I error be? c. In this context, what would a...

The big idea behind hypothesis testing is that we have an assumption about reality, and we see if the data fits that assumption. The whole process gets complicated by all the notation and calculations, but essentially we’re deciding if the assumption is possible, or if the data leads us to reject it. 1.
