In a test of the effectiveness of garlic for lowering cholesterol, 36 subjects were treated with raw garlic. Cholesterol levels were measured before and after the treatment. The changes (before minus after) in their levels of LDL cholesterol (in mg/dL) have a mean of 0.6 and a standard deviation of 1.83. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that with garlic treatment, the mean change in LDL cholesterol is greater than 0. What do the results suggest about the...

6. A random sample of 154 recent donations at a certain blood bank reveals that 84 were type A blood. Does this suggest that the actual percentage of type A donations differs from 40%, the percentage of the population having type A blood? Carry out a test of the appropriate hypotheses using a significance level of 0.01. (20 points) a. State the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses. b. Calculate the test statistic and determine the P-value. (Round your test statistic...

3. Do you see any striking difference between problem 1 and 2? At a certain university, the mean income of parents of the entering class is reported to by $91,600. The president of another university feels that the parents’ income for her entering class is more than $91,600. She surveys 100 randomly selected families and finds the mean income to be $96,321. Given σ = $9555. With α = 0.05, is she correct? State the null and alternative hypotheses which...

A recent broadcast of a television show had a 10 share, meaning that among 5000 monitored households with TV sets in use, 10% of them were tuned to this program. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim of an advertiser that among the households with TV sets in use, less than 15% were tuned into the program. Identify the null hypothesis, alternative hypothesis, test statistic, P-value, conclusion about the null hypothesis, and final conclusion that addresses the original...

A U.S. Web Usage Snapshot indicated a monthly average of 36 Internet visits per user from home. A random sample of 24 Internet users yielded a sample mean of 42.1 visits with a standard deviation of 5.3. At the 0.01 level of significance, can it be concluded that this differs from the national average? Step 1: State hypotheses by filling in the symbol (=, <, >, or not equal) and the population mean: Ho: μ Blank H1: μ Blank Step...

A recent survey showed that in a sample of 180 high school teachers, 36 were single. In a sample of 120 elementary school teachers, 18 were single. Using a 0.01 level of significance, is the proportion of high school teachers who were single greater than the proportion of elementary teachers who were single? a.) Write the claim using an appropriate math expression b.) Define the Null and Alternate Hypotheses c.) Find the p-value d.) Make your conclusion
