1) The real proportion of left-handed students at Simon's school is Hp: p = 0.12; Ha: p 0.12.

4) The genuine mean quantity of hemoglobin (g/dl) in Jordanian children is Ho: mean = 12; Ha:
mean 12 mean.

6) Actual standard deviation distance jumpers will compete in this competition. Ho: s.d. = 10;
Ha: s.d >10

8) hypotheses presented as sample data rather than an undetermined population percentage.

We ought to have a biased choice. The proper hypotheses are Ho: p = 0.37 and Ha: p > 0.37.

11a) There is a 21.84% probability of discovering a sample of 100 individuals with a value that
differs by as much as 0.12 in either direction from the sample value.
11b) No, scenarios that would frequently occur just by chance if Ho were true are not strong
arguments against Ho. There isn't enough proof to conclude that Simon's school has a higher
percentage of left-handed children than the average American school.

14a) The probability of finding a sample of 50 kids with a mean score of 11.3 or below is 0.16%.
14b. If the p-value is less than 0.05 or 0.01, reject the null hypothesis in both situations. We
have proof that Jordanian kids typically have hemoglobin levels under 12 mg/dl.

16) not accurate. Either ho is true or ho is false. If Ho is accurate, a number that is more or less
severe is 5% since a = 0.05 level.

20a) Assume that p is the percentage of calls where first responders arrive within 8 minutes.
Hence, H0: p = 0.78; Ha: p > 0.78 are the hypotheses.
20b) Rejecting the null hypothesis when it is really true—that the proportion of accidents with an
adequate response time has increased—would be a Type I mistake. Failure to reject the null
hypothesis when it is actually false—that the proportion of accidents with an adequate response
time has changed—would be considered a Type II mistake.
20c) Type I errors would be worse since the city could give up attempting to speed up reaction
times, which could result in more fatalities.

25a) With a p value of 0.08, the null hypothesis is rejected with a probability of 0.64.
25b) additional data and testing are required
25c) As one type of mistake's likelihood is reduced, the chance of the other type of error is
increased. power decreased
