Part A) State the null and alternative hypothesis for each of the following scenarios
Part B) State the hypothesis test (one sample t-test, one sample z-test, two sample t-test, two sample z-test, paired test) that applies to the situation
A) Weekly data on the percentage of damaged inventory for 10 weeks before and 10 weeks after the implementation of new environmentally friendly techniques meant to reduce waste. You wish to see if the green management techniques have significantly improved practices.
B) The percent change in weight as a result of water diffusion for a particular composite material to simulate the effect of weather. You wish to ascertain whether this material experiences less than 0.5% average weight gain for this type of diffusion.
C) The densities of a number of samples of a particular type of polymer compound. You would like to see whether the average density is larger than 3.50.

Q7) A hypothesis test is to be performed with a Null hypothesis and an alternative hypothesis , the population standard deviation is σ=3.0, the sample size is 30, and the significance level is α=0.025. What is a type I error? (1 mark) What is the chance of making a type I error in the above test? (1 mark) What is a Type II error?

For each of the following three scenarios, state which hypothesis test you would use from among the four: the z test, the single-sample t test, the paired-samples t test, and the independent-samples t test. Explain each answer in detail, including a discussion of the type of test, why it should be used, and the assumptions of the test. A. A study of 40 children who had survived a brain tumor revealed that the children were more likely to have behavioral...

Perform the appropriate Hypothesis Test (State the Null Hypothesis, Alternative Hypothesis, the appropriate test statistic, the p-value, whether you reject or fail to reject the null, and then interpret your conclusion): A simple random sample of 200 drivers were asked if they drive a car manufactured in a certain country. Of the 200 drivers surveyed, 107 responded that they did. Determine if more than half of all drivers drive a car made in this country. Use α=0.025.

The following experiments were conducted. State the null and alternative hypothesis and identify which analysis (e.g., one-sample t-test) the experimenter should use to analyze the data. Dr. Nordeng is interested in response to stress in cats following removal from their mother. Ten litters of 3 kittens were used. One kitten was removed from its mother at 6 weeks, one at 8 weeks, and the other 10 weeks after birth. A blood test at 20 weeks of age provided the data:...

A medical researcher is interested in finding out whether a new medication will have undesirable effects on patients pulse rates. Since she knows that the mean pulse rate for the population under the study is 82 beats per minute, the hypotheses for this situation are: b.

State the null hypothesis H 0 and alternative hypothesis H a Ha in each of the following cases. (a) A university gives credit in first-year calculus to students who pass a placement test. The mathematics department wants to know if students who get credit in this way differ in their success with second-year calculus. Scores in second-year calculus are scaled so the average each year is equivalent to a 79. This year 21 students who took second-year calculus passed the...

6.73 Hypotheses. In each of the following situations, state an appropriate null hypothesis H0 and alternative hypothesis Ha. Be sure to identify the parameters that you use to state the hypotheses. (We have not yet learned how to test these hypotheses.) (a) A sociologist asks a large sample of high school students which academic subject they like best. She suspects that a higher percent of males than of females will name economics as their favorite subject. (b) An education researcher...
