Conduct a test at the a = 0.05 level of significance by determining (a) the null and alternative hypotheses (b) the test statistic (c) the critical value, and (d) the P-value. Assume that the samples were obtained independently using simple random sampling. 1. Test whether p1 is not equal to p2. Sample data: x1 = 804, n1 = 874, x2 = 902, n2 = 954

When treating carpal tunnel syndrome, should a patient be treated with surgery or should a splint be applied? In a study on this issue, 73 patients were treated with surgery and 83 were treated with a splint. After 12 months, success was noted in 67 patients that had surgery, whereas success was noted in only 60 of the patients that had a splint. Assume that the observations came from a SRS. a) (3 points) Construct an appropriate graphical summary to...

When treating carpal tunnel syndrome, should a patient be treated with surgery or should a splint be applied? In a study of this issue, 73 patients were treated with surgery and 83 were treated with a splint. After 12 months, success was noted in 63 of the surgery patients and 60 of the splint patients. Go through “The Drill” for the data in this exercise. We are interested in any difference either way. “The Drill” – Confidence Intervals Assumptions and...

Carpal tunnel syndrome is a common wrist complaint resulting from a compressed nerve. It is often the result of extended use of repetitive wrist movements, such as those associated with the use of a keyboard. Among the various treatments available, two are common: apply a splint or perform surgery. The splint treatment has the advantages of being noninvasive. simpler, quicker, and much less expensive. But do those advantages justify the splint treatment instead of the surgery treatment? A critical factor...

Test the given claim using the α=0.05 significance level and assuming that the populations are normally distributed and that the population variances are equal. Claim: The treatment population and the placebo population have the same means. Treatment group: n=9, x¯=110, s=5.9. Placebo group: n=7, x¯=116,s=5.7. The test statistic is =___________ The positive critical value is =__________ The negative critical value is =________ Is there sufficient evidence to warrant the rejection of the claim that the treatment and placebo populations have...
