Anyone who plays or watches sports has heard of the "home field advantage." Teams tend to win more often when they play at home.

Or do they? If there were no home field advantage, the home teams would win about half of all games played. During the 2010 season, the home team won 142 of the 250 regular-season football league games. At a 3% level of significance, is there strong evidence of a home field advantage in professional football?
Required:
a. State the null and alternative hypotheses in both words and math notation. Will you perform a left-tailed, right-tailed, or two-tailed test?
b. Calculate the sample proportion. Is the sample proportion consistent with your alternative hypothesis?
c. Sketch the sampling distribution and label the mean, standard error, and the observed sample statistic. Calculate the test statistic. Is the test statistic unusual? Use the test statistic to find the P-value

Answer:

H0 : μ = 0.5

H0 : μ > 0.5

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

H0 : μ = 0.5

H0 : μ > 0.5

We perform a right tailed test :

Sample proportion :

Number of games won, x = 142

Number of games, n = 250

phat = x / n = 142 / 250 = 0.568 = 56.8%

Yes, it is consistent

Test statistic :

(phat - p) * √Phat(1-Phat)/n

1 -Phat = 1 -0.568 = 0.432

(0.568 - 0.5) /√(0.568*0.432)/250

0.068 / 0.0313289

= 2.17

The Pvalue using the z test statistic :

Pvalue = 0.015

α = 0.03

Since ;

Pvalue < α ; We reject the null and conclude that teams tend to win more often when they play at home.

GalinKa [24]

Answer:

he should buy 128 oz of milk for 6.49

Step-by-step explanation:

2.49 divided by 32 equals 7 cents unless your rounding which would be 8 cents

What is the surface area of the figure 8" 8" 12"
fgiga [73]
First, find the surface area of the bigger sides (there are 4 of them so what you get for one you will multiply by 4)

12 x 8 = 96

96 x 4 = 384

Then find the surface area of the smaller sides ( there are two small sides so multiply your answer by two)

8 x 8 = 64

64 x 2 =128

Then add both together 

128 +384 =  512

Hope this helps :)
