Test the claim that cell phone users develop brain importance, use a different from the rate of0,0340% for people who do not use cel phones. Because this issue has such great 0.005 significance level Use this information to answer the folowing questions. a. Which of the following is the hypothesis test to be conducted? OA Hot p 0.00034 OB. He 0.00034 Hi p 0.00034 H1 p 0.00034 Oc Hop 0.00034 OO, Hop 0.00034 Hip 0.00034 H1 p 0.00034 OE. Ho p

Solution

a).. C

b).. z = -0.40

c).. P= 0.6866

d).. A. there is not sufficient evidence

e).. B. The study does not suggest that a cell phone user is at a higher risk for brain cancer than a non cell phone user.
