You're a sociologist studying whether grocery prices are different in the inner cities than they are in the suburbs. To investigate this, you pick a random set of items (a basket of goods), and then send shoppers to buy these items at an inner city (IC) grocery, and also at a suburban (SU) grocery. You pick 27 different baskets of goods, so your secret shoppers buy 27 baskets, once at the inner city store, and once at a suburban store. The data is given in the dataset named "ICvSU_2799.xls", which you can find in data folder under Course Documents. Prices could be higher in the inner city because of discrimination, or they could be higher in the suburbs because of the greater disposable income. Use Excel to test the research hypothesis that inner city prices are different than the suburb's prices. The null hypothesis is that inner city prices are equal to suburban prices. You test at the alpha = 0.01 significance level. What do you conclude? Are prices the same? Who has higher…
A survey of 150 freshmen business students at a local university produced the results listed below. How many students took only religion? 35 took history;42 took science;43 took religion;19 took history but not science;14 took science and religion;15 took history and religion;6 took all three
) A recent poll surveyed 1587 adults (18 years of age and older, residing in the contiguous United States, contacted by phone from randomly selected homes). Residents who agreed to participate were categorized according to their political party preference (Democrat, Republican or other) and their gender (male or female). To make life easier, we’ll focus on the responses from the south (37% of the sample or 588 people). Our question is about the “Gender Gap” in American politics (the gender gap is described as differences in voting preferences for men and women). Is voting preference independent of gender? What test should you use and why?
In a survey of 252 professional athletes, it was found that 119 of them owned a convertible, 122 of them owned a giant screen TV, and 115 owned a sporting goods store. 21 owned a convertible and a store, 44 owned a TV and a store, and 73 owned a covertible and a TV. 13 owned all three items. How many athletes did not own any of the three items? How many owned a covertible and a TV, but not a store? How many athletes owned a convertible or a TV? How many athletes owned exactly one type of item in the survey? How many athletes owned at least one type of item in the survey? How many owned a TV or a store, but not a convertible?
When planning a date night, you have a choice of 2 types of restaurants: pizza (P) or barbeque (B); a choice of 4 types of movies: romantic comedy (R), action/adventure (A), drama (D), or foreign film (F); and a choice of 2 types of post-movie activities: grabbing coffee (C) or getting ice cream (I). If you are choosing only one of each, list the sample space in regard to the dates (combinations of restaurants, movies, and post-movie activities) you could pick from.

A person, Joe, claims to be able to "smell" an illness based on the odor of a person's clothing. Joe is given 12 shirts, each worn by a different person, some of whom had the illness and some of whom did not. The shirts were given to Joe in random order and he had to decide whether each shirt had been worn by an ill patient or by a healthy patient. joe identified 11 of the 12 shirts correctly. If we assume that Joe was just guessing, he would have probability 1/2 of correctly identifying each shirt. Find the probability that Joe would identify AT LEAST 11 shirts correctly by random guessing
In a series of studies, Sebastian Deri and his colleagues (2017) asked multiple groups about the number of friend groups they had and how often they attended different social events. They then asked participants how they thought their own numbers compared to other people's: Did participants see themselves as less social, the same as, or more social than others? In the first study, the researchers reported that: "Three hundred four participants from Amazon's Mechanical Turk (150 women; Mage = 37.1; 78% White, 10% Black, and 6% Asian) completed a survey in exchange for modest payment" (p. 860). What do the researchers mean by "Amazon's Mechanical Turk" with respect to their sample of participants? O A. An archival data set that already exists and from which researchers can use data O B.
