Amelia is a nurse at a large hospital who would like to know whether the percentage is the same for senior citizen patients who go to her hospital. She randomly selects 59 senior citizens patients who were treated at the hospital and finds that 49 of them take at least one prescription medication. What are the null and alternative hypotheses for this hypothesis test? {H0:p=0.81Ha:p>0.81 {H0:p≠0.81Ha:p=0.81 {H0:p=0.81Ha:p<0.81 {H0:p=0.81Ha:p≠0.81 QUESTION 5 A doctor notes her patient's temperature in degrees Fahrenheit every hour to make sure the patient does not get a fever. What is the level of measurement of the data. nominal ordinal interval ratio QUESTION 6 Assume the null hypothesis, H0, is: Jacob earns enough money to afford a luxury apartment. Find the Type I error in this scenario. Jacob thinks he does not earn enough money to afford the luxury apartment when, in fact, he does. Jacob thinks he does not earn enough money to afford the luxury apartment when, in fact, he does not. Jacob thinks he earns enough money to afford the luxury apartment when, in fact, he does not.

ANSWER: MEAN= 16 BOXES QUESTION 9 To test the effectiveness of a drug proposed to relieve symptoms of headache, physicians included participants for a study. They gave the drug to one group and a drug with no therapeutic effect to another group. Which group receives the placebo? the physicians the group that received the drug for headache the group that received the drug with no therapeutic effect all of the people in the study QUESTION 10 John owns a computer repair service. For each computer, he charges $50 plus $45 per hour of work. A linear equation that expresses the total amount of money John earns per computer is y=50+45x. What are the independent and dependent variables? What is the y-intercept and the slope? The independent variable (x) is the amount of time John fixes a computer. The dependent variable (y) is the amount, in dollars, John earns for a computer. John charges a one-time fee of $50 (this is when x=0), so the y-intercept is 50. John earns $45 for each hour he works, so the slope is 45. The independent
