Non-organic 15.59 14.76 13.32 12.45 12.79
( observations refer to the recovery of the drug 7 hours after its adminstration )
Test Ho: u1= u2 where u1 and u2 refer to the true mean percentages of recovery for the two conditions. Use alpha = 0.05
2. A random sample of 5726 telephone numbers taken from a certain city yielded 1105 numbers that were unlisted. A researcher's claim is that the true proportion of phone numbers in this city is larger that 15%. A ) Test this claim at the 0.05 level of significance.
