the p-value is (less than, greater than) the significance level of 0.05, so (fail to reject, reject) the null hypothesis. there (is, is not) sufficient evidence to support the claim that echinacea has an effect.


Because the confidence intervals limits (include, do not include) 0, there (does, does not) appear to be a significant difference between the two proportions. there (is, is not) evidence to support the claim.

In a placebo group, 99 of the 113 subjects developed rhinovirus infections. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that echinacea has an effect on rhinovirus infections. Complete parts (a) through (c) below. a. Test the claim using a hypothesis test. Consider the first sample to be the sample of subjects treated with echinacea and the second sample to be the sample of subjects treated with a placebo. What are the null and alternative hypotheses for the hypothesis test? O A. Ho: P1 2 p2 H: P1 # P2 B. Ho: P1 # P2 O C. Ho: P1 = P2 H1: P1 # P2 H1: P1 = P2 O E. Ho: P1 sp2 H1: P1 # P2 O F. Ho: P1 = P2 H1:P1 P2 Identify the test statistic. (Round to two decimal places as needed.) Identify the P-value. P-value = (Round to three decimal places as needed.) What is the conclusion based on the hypothesis test? The P-value is the significance level of a = 0.05, so the null hypothesis. There sufficient evidence to support the claim that echinacea treatment has an effect. b. Test the claim by constructing an appropriate confidence interval. The 95% confidence interval is|< (p1="" -="">

Extracted text: A. Echinacea does appear to have a significant effect on the infection rate. There is evidence that it lowers the infection rate. B. Echinacea does appear to have a significant effect on the infection rate. There is evidence that it increases the infection rate. C. Echinacea does not appear to have a significant effect on the infection rate. D. The results are inconclusive.
