Exhibit 1 Serial interval, in the epidemiology of contagious diseases, refers to the transmission time from one infected case to its immediate next case in a chain of infection. Think of it as a time period between a primary case developing symptoms and a secondary case developing symptoms. Assume that a study showed that the standard deviation of the serial interval of COVID-19 is 5 days which is treated as the sample standard deviation of COVID-19 serial interval.

Refer to Exhibit 2. Which of the following is a point estimate for the population proportion of female gun owners?

Refer to Exhibit 2. Let’s assume that you calculated the critical value for this test equal to -1.5. Use the test statistic you calculated earlier and the critical value of -1.5 to state the conclusion for the test.

Refer to Exhibit 2. With the p-value equal to 0.016, what would be the conclusion at a 1% significance level?

Refer to Exhibit 2. What is the critical value for this hypothesis test at a 10% significance level? Please, consult the values below.

Refer to Exhibit 2. The appropriate distribution to use for calculating the critical value and the p-value in this test is:

Refer to Exhibit 3. Based on collected information, the test statistic for the hypothesis test was computed to be equal 1.9965. How would you compute the p-value for the hypothesis test using this test statistic?

When the following hypotheses are being tested at the level of significance
