Jerany Smith Math 1040: Elementary Stats Project Part 4 04/14/2014 Part 4 As individuals, complete a hypothesis test for

the population proportion using the same value of your categorical variable from Part 3 and your SRS. Test the claim that the proportion equals 50%. Show all the steps (20 points). Write the appropriate conclusion as it relates to the claim (10 points). Identify the Type I and Type II errors as they relate to your hypothesis test (10 points). Use the population parameter you computed in Part 1 to determine whether your conclusion was a correct decision, a Type I error, or a Type II error (5 points). Discuss whether your result is consistent with the confidence interval you computed for p in Part 3 (5 points). Complete a hypothesis test for the population mean using the quantitative variable from Part 2 and your SRS. Test the claim that the mean is greater than Q1 For the population (see your population parameters from Part 2). Show all the steps (20 points). Write the appropriate conclusion as it relates to the claim (10 points). Identify the Type I and Type II errors as they relate to your hypothesis test (10 points). Use the population parameter you computed in Part 2 to determine whether your conclusion was a correct decision, a Type I error, or a Type II error (5 points). Discuss whether your result is consistent with the confidence interval you computed for in Part 3 (5 points)

H0 : p = .5 H1 : p .5 n = 33 x = 16 = .05 p = .5 (Claim) p(hat) = x/n = .485 p(hat) p z = (p) (q)/n .485 - .5 z =.5 (.5)/33 = -.0172 Critical Value z score = 1.96 Fail to reject the claim because the critical value is not greater/less than 1.96. There is insufficient evidence to reject the claim that the proportion of females is 50%.

Type I error: -Reject the claim that 50% are women when it is true. Type II error: -Fail to reject the claim that 50% are women when it is false. This result is consistent with the confidence interval previously calculated as being (.47, .51). ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------H0: m = 8 (Q1) H1: m > 8 n = 30 x(bar) = 8.67 s = 2.02

t = x(bar) m s/n t = 8.67 8 2.02/ 30 = 1.817 df = 29 Critical t-value: 1.699 <1.817 Reject H0. There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean age is greater than 8 (Q1). Type I error: - Reject the claim that the mean equals 8 when true. Type II error: - Fail to reject the claim that the mean age equals 8 when the mean is greater than 8. This result is consistent with the confidence interval calculated as being (8.512, 8.815) because this confidence interval is greater that 8 (Q1).
