It is claimed that in a bushel of peaches less than ten percent are defective. A sample of 400 peaches is examined and 50 are found to be defective. What is the critical value for Z if you were testing the hypothesis with α = 0.025 1.96 ±1.65 -1.96 -1.65
Which of the following is NOT a criterion for making a decision in a hypothesis test?Question content area bottomPart 1Choose the correct answer below.A.If the test statistic falls within the critical region, the decision is to reject the null hypothesis.B.If P-value≤α, the decision is to reject the null hypothesis. Otherwise, we fail to reject the null hypothesis.C.If the P-value is less than 0.05, the decision is to reject the null hypothesis. Otherwise, we fail to reject the null hypothesis.D.If a...
Use the following information to answer the next two questions. Please refer to question 9-90. A manufacturer of interocular lenses is qualifying a new grinding machine and will qualify the machine if there is evidence that the percentage of polished lenses that contain surface defects does not exceed 2%. A random sample of 250 lenses contains six defective lenses. Formulate and test an appropriate set of hypotheses to determine if the machine can be qualified. Use α = 0.05. What...
It is claimed that in a case of auto parts, less than 10% are defective. A sample of 400 parts is examined and 50 are found to be defective. What is the alternate hypothesis?
Null Hypothesis Conclusion 07 Use the given information to state the conclusion about the null hypothesis HO Assume a significance level of 0.01. Originalbec claim: The percentage of settled medical malpractice suits is. at least 50% The hypothesis test results in a P-value of 0.012. Answer 1. Reject Ho because the P-value is greater than alpha. 2.Fail to reject reject Ho because the P-value is less than alpha. 3. Fail to reject reject Ho because the P-value is greater than...
The P-value for a hypothesis test is shown. Use the P-value to decide whether to reject H when the level of significance is (a) a= 0.01, (b) a 0.05, and (c) a0.10. P 0.0749 (a) Do you reject or fail to reject Ho at the 0.01 level of significance? O A. Reject H because the P-value, 0.0749, is greater than a=0.01 O B. Fail to reject Ho because the P-value, 0.0749, is less than a = 0.01 O C. Reject...
In order to conduct a hypothesis test for the population mean, a random sample of 24 observations is drawn from a normally distributed population. The resulting sample mean and sample standard deviation are calculated as 4.8 and 0.8, respectively. (You may find it useful to reference the appropriate table: z table or t table) H0 : μ s 4 , 5 against HA: μ > 4 . 5 a-1. Calculate the value of the test statistic. (Round all intermediate calculations...
O A. Because the p-value is less than a, we reject the null hypothesis and conclude that the average det load is equal to $17,000 O B. Because the p-vakus is greafer than a we fail to reject the nu ○ C. Because the p-value is greater than a we fail to reject the nul hypothesis and cannot co clude that he OD. Because the pvalue is lesse an Suppose that the Department of Education would like to test the...
In order to conduct a hypothesis test for the population mean, a random sample of 24 observations is drawn from a normally distributed population. The resulting sample mean and sample standard deviation are calculated as 6.3 and 2.5, respectively. (You may find it useful to reference the appropriate table: z table or t table). H0: μ ≤ 5.1 against HA: μ > 5.1 a-1. Calculate the value of the test statistic. (Round all intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal...
You are asked to conduct a simulation and run a hypothesis test at a significance level of 0.10. Based on your simulation, you find that the p-value is 0.051. What does this mean for your hypothesis test? 1. Since the p-value is greater than the significance level, you must fail to reject the null hypothesis. 2. Since the p-value is less than the significance level, you must fail to reject the null hypothesis. 3. Since the p-value is less than...
