1) In hypothesis testing, the region of rejection of the null hypothesis will always be smaller than the region of acceptance of the null hypothesis. True or False? One-sample tests use data drawn from a single sample to test that the sample comes from a specified population. True or False? A study of more than 20,000 mothers of newborns revealed a 10% greater likelihood of purchase by mothers of boys versus mothers of girls. The null hypothesis is: "Mothers of...
1. In hypothesis testing, the hypothesis that is assumed to be true for the purpose of testing is called the hypothesis 2. (Circle the correct response) In hypothesis testing, critical values used to make a rejection decision regarding the null hypothesis are determined by the nature of the hypothesis test (two-tail vs. one-tail) and the d. significance level a. sample size b. population parameter c. target value 3. (Circle the correct response) In the process of hypothesis testing, the test...
In testing the null hypothesis Ho: 1-4 2 = 0, we use a a. right-tail test b. difference-tail test O c. left-tail test d. two-tail test
1. Using the traditional hypothesis testing approach, calculate the critical value for testing the null hypothesis that the population mean is greater than or equal to 12, given a sample size of 49, a population standard deviation 6.06, and a significance level of 0.05. Round to two decimals. K = 2. The manager of a paint supply store wants to determine if the mean amount of paint contained in 1- gallon cans purchased from a nationally known manufacturer is actually...
QUESTION 4 a) What is meant by critical region and significance level in hypothesis testing? (2 marks) b) A random sample X1, X2...., X, of size n is obtained from a normal distribution with mean, u and variance, 81. We are interested to test Ho : 4 = 100 against H, : x = 104. 1) Show that a best critical region according to Neyman-Pearson lemma is 82c. (8 marks) ii) Find the sample size, n given that the significance...
Exercise 4.8: Suppose that X1, X2,..., Xn is a random sample of observations on a r.v. X, which takes values only in the range (0, 1). Under the null hypothesis Ho, the distribution of X is uniform on (0, 1), whereas under an alternative hypothesis, њ, the distribution is the truncated exponential with p.d.f. 0e8 where 6 is unknown. Show that there is a UMP test of Ho vs Hi and find, roximately, the critical region for such a test...
n be a random sample from a Gamma distribution with (a) Show there exists a uniformly most powerful test for testing Ho vs H. Show that the critical region can be expressed as an inequality for Y-:-1X, that is it will have the form [Y>cor the form Y < c]. Explain which one of the two and why (b) Is there a uniformly most powerful test for testing Ho : θ 1 vs H1 : θメ1? axqplai n be a...
For the folowing claim, find the null and alternative hypotheses, test statistic, critical value, and draw a conclusion. Assume that a simple random sample has been selected from a normally distributed population. Answer parts a-d. Claim: The mean IQ score of statistics professors is less than 119. Sample data: n 11, x 117, s 14. The significance level is ?-005 Click the icon to view a table of critical t-values. a. Choose the correct null hypothesis (Ho) and altenative hypothesis...
Diego is testing a claim about a population mean. The hypotheses are: Ho: u = 137 H: 4 > 137 After taking a simple random sample of 58 subjects, he determines that the sample mean is 140. Diego then does some calculations and writes the following in his notebook: "If Ho were true, the chance that the sample mean would have come out as big (or bigger) than 0.17." What is the name given to the value of 0.17? o...
