Question

According to a recent census, 17% of the people in the United States are of Hispanic origin. One county supervisor believes her county has a different proportion of Hispanic people than the nation as a whole. She looks at their most recent survey data, which was a random sample of 400 county residents, and found that 44 of those surveyed are of Hispanic origin. Complete parts (a) through (d) below What kind of test is this? Difference in differences test Two-proportion t test Proportional t test One-proportion z test Check the appropriate conditions for a hypothesis test. Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer boxes within your choice. (Round to one decimal place as needed) A. The 400 residents were a random sample from the county of interest. The standard deviation of p is less than 0.5. One expects $n_0 p_0$ = successes and $n_0 q_0$ = failures, which are both more than 20. B. The 400 residents were a random sample from the county of interest. 400 is likely less than 10% of the population of a county. One expects $n_0 p_0$ = successes and $n_0 q_0$ = failures, which are both more than 10. C. The 400 residents were a random sample from the county of interest. The sample size is more than 100. One expects $n_0 p_0$ = successes and $n_0 q_0$ = failures, which are both more than 10.

What kind of test is this? O Difference in differences test. Proportional test. One-proportion z test. Select the correct choice below and in the answer boxes within your notice. Check the appropriate conditions for a hypothesis test (Round to one decimal place as needed). The 400 residents were a random sample from the county. Since 400 is less than 10% of the population of a county, one expects no successes and no failures. The 400 residents were a random sample from the county of interest. The sample size is more than 100. One expects npo successes and ngo failures, which are both more than 10.

A one sample z-test for a proportion at the 0.05 significance level will be conducted for the following set of hypotheses: H0: p=0.50 , Ha: p<0.50. For which of the following is the probability of a Type II error the greatest? a) A sample size of 200 and a true proportion of 0.45. b) A sample size of 200 and a true proportion of 0.40. c) A sample size of 200 and a true proportion of 0.35. d) A sample size of 100 and a true proportion of 0.45. e) A sample size of 100 and a true proportion of 0.35.

In testing the difference between two population means for which the population variances are unknown and not assumed to be equal, two independent samples are drawn from the populations. Which of the following tests is appropriate? a. z-test b. pooled-variances t-test c. unequal variances t-test d. None of these choices.

Conduct a test at the α = 0.10 level of significance by determining (a) the null and alternative hypotheses, (b) the test statistic, and (c) the P-value. Assume the samples were obtained independently from a large population using simple random sampling. Test whether p1 > p2. The sample data are x1 = 122, n1 = 251, x2 = 142, and n2 = 312. Choose the correct null and alternative hypotheses below: H0: p1 = 0 versus H1: p1 ≠ 0 H0: p1 = p2 versus H1: p1 ≠ p2 H0: p1 = p2 versus H1: p1 < p2 H0: p1 = p2 versus H1: p1 > p2
