4. Researchers claim that more than 10% of all football helmets have man- ufacturing defects that could cause injury to the player. A sample of 200 helmets revealed that 24 helmets contained such faults. Do we have significant evidence in favor of the researcher’s declaration? Calculate the p − value and make a decision with α = 5%. A) p − value=0.3472. At α = 5%, the evidence in favor of the re- searcher’s declaration is significant. B) p −...

Use the following information for questions 1-10: A researcher is creating a new treatment protocol for Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS), a form of preleukemia. Following the old treatment protocol, 32% of patients with MDS will develop leukemia within 5 years of MDS diagnosis. He believes his new treatment protocol will lead to fewer MDS patients developing leukemia. He takes a random sample of 100 individuals on his new treatment protocol. Of these 100 individuals, 27 develop leukemia...
