You challenge a friend to a bottle flipping contest. Your friend flips 64 out of 226 bottles that land upright. You flip 72 out of 238 bottles that land upright. Is there evidence, at a 5% level of significance, that there is a difference in proportion of bottles that land upright between you and your friend?

Calculate the following:

Standard Error :

Standardized Test Statistic :

p-value:

Should the null hypothesis be rejected (yes or no)?

Solutions

Expert Solution

To Test ;-

H0 :- P1 = P2

H1 :- P1 P2

Test Statistic :-

is the pooled estimate of the proportion P
= ( x1 + x2) / ( n1 + n2)
= ( 64 + 72 ) / ( 226 + 238 )
= 0.2931

Z = -0.4573

Test Criteria :-
Reject null hypothesis if

= -0.4573 > -1.96, hence we fail to reject the null hypothesis
Conclusion :- We Fail to Reject H0

Decision based on P value
P value = 2 * P ( Z < -0.4573 )
P value = 0.6474
Reject null hypothesis if P value <
Since P value = 0.6474 > 0.05, hence we fail to reject the null hypothesis
Conclusion :- We Fail to Reject H0

Yes, null hypothesis be rejected

- Your friend claims he has a fair coin; that is, the probability of flipping heads or tails is equal to 0.5. You believe the coin is weighted. Suppose a coin toss turns up 15 heads out of 20 trials. At α = 0.05, can we conclude that the coin is fair (i.e., the probability of flipping heads is 0.5)? You may use the traditional method or P-value method.

You and your friend go sledding. Out of curiosity, you measure the constant angle θ that the snow-covered slope makes with the horizontal. Next, you use the following method to determine the coefficient of friction µk between the snow and the sled. You give the sled a quick push up so that it will slide up the slope away from you. You wait for it to slide back down, timing the motion. It turns out that the sled takes four...
