Lab 3 Binomial Distribution s3

<p>Math 17 - Lab 5 – Hypothesis Test - Comparing two population proportions.</p><p>Hypothesis Tests for Proportions can be run in Minitab using the command STAT>BASIC STATISTICS>2 PROPORTIONS. You must select Test Hypothesis box, choose the summarized data for question and the samples in 1 column for questions 2 and 3. Then go to Options to set the direction of Ha and the difference of the proportions under Ho (almost always this will be 0).</p><p>1. In a survey conducted for the National Center for Health Statistics, 800 men and 900 women were tested for stress. 487 men and 607 women studied report to moderate to high levels of stress. We want to test for a difference in the proportion of men and women who have moderate to high levels of stress.</p><p> a. State the Null and Alternative Hypotheses.</p><p> b. In the context of this problem, explain Type I and Type II error.</p><p> c. Determine the sample proportions for each group.</p><p> d. Using Minitab, calculate the p-value for this test. Paste the results here. Assuming a significance level () of 1%, decide if you would reject or fail to reject Ho.</p><p> e. Write an appropriate conclusion in the context of this problem. Open the data for Rate My Professors that we used last quarter: RateMP.MPJ. For questions 2 and 3, you will using command STAT>BASIC STATISTICS>2 PROPORTIONS making college the subscript.</p><p>2. We want to test for a difference in the proportion of male Instructors at Foothill and De Anza College.</p><p> a. State the Null and Alternative Hypotheses.</p><p>.</p><p> b. Calculate the p-value for this test. Paste the results here. Assuming a significance level () of 5%, decide if you would reject or fail to reject Ho.</p><p> c. Write an appropriate conclusion in the context of this problem.</p><p>3. We want to test for a difference in the proportion of "hot" Instructors at Foothill and De Anza College.</p><p> a. State the Null and Alternative Hypotheses.</p><p> b. Calculate the p-value for this test. Paste the results here. Assuming a significance level () of 5%, decide if you would reject or fail to reject Ho.</p><p> c. Write an appropriate conclusion in the context of this problem.</p>
