er the person eats strawberries several times a week. In the group(1) that eats strawberries regularly, we find than 5 out of 2000 get lung cancer. In the group(2) that does not eat strawberries regularly, we find that 5 out of 1000 get lung cancer. What is the sample relative risk?

Answer: Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

In group(1), the risk is= 5/2000 x 100

                          = 0.25

In group(2), the risk is= 5/1000 x 100

                         = 0.5

The sample relative risk is= 0.25/0.5

                                          = 0.5

So, option C is correct.

A study reveals that 65% of homeowners in Omaha own a lawn mower. To test this claim, you form a sample of 500 homeowners in Oma
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

There is no enough evidence to reject the claim using a level of significance of 5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the true proportion of homeowners in Omaha who own a lawnmower. We want to test  

H_{0}: p = p_{0} = 0.65 vs H_{1}: p\neq 0.65 (two-tailed alternative).

We have a large sample of size n = 500 and a point estimate for p is \hat{p}=0.68. The test statistic is given by

Z=\frac{\hat{p}-p_{0}}{\sqrt{p_{0}(1-p_{0})/n}}=\frac{0.68-0.65}{\sqrt{0.65(1-0.65)/500}} where \sqrt{0.65(1-0.65)/500} is the standard error of \hat{p} when H_{0} is true. The observed value is z_{0} = 1.4064 which comes from a standard normal distribution. Because we want to use a level of significance of 5%, our rejection region is RR={z | z < -1.96 or z > 1.96} where -1.96 and 1.96 are the 2.5th and 97.5th quantiles respectively. Because 1.4064 does not belong to RR, we fail to reject the null hypothesis.
