A veterinarian believes the proportion of cats that are expected to live more than 15 years to be less than 30%. What would be the p-value for the null and alternative hypothesis?

Step 1
In hypothesis testing, the null hypothesis (H0) is a statement of no effect or no difference, and it is what we assume to be true until we have evidence to suggest otherwise. The alternative hypothesis (Ha) is what we want to provide evidence for. In this case: - Show more…

A Veterinarian claims that cats live past 10 years more often than dogs. Out of the first sample of 1203 randomly selected cats, 250 lived past 10 years. Out of the second sample of 1087 randomly selected dogs, 148 lived past 10 years. Fill in the blanks below to create a 95% confidence interval, estimating the difference in the population proportion of cats and dogs that live past 10 years.

Iona discovers that the lifespan of cats is normally distributed with mean 12 years and standard deviation 2 years. What is the best estimate for the probability of a cat living more than 16 years?

Cats live for 14 years, on average, with a standard deviation of 2 years, and cat lifespan is bimodal with a large peak at the beginning of life and a second peak near 16 years. A simple random sample of 78 recently deceased cats is selected, and the sample mean age at death of these cats is computed. What is the shape of the sampling distribution of sample means?
