3. At a major credit card bank, the percentages of people who historically apply for the Silver, Gold, and Platinum cards are 60%, 30%, and 10% respectively. In a recent sample of customers responding to a promotion, of 200 customers, 110 applied for Silver, 55 for Gold, and 35 for Platinum. Is there evidence to suggest that the percentages for this promotion may be different from historical proportions? a) What is the expected number of customers applying for each type of card in this sample if the historical proportions are still true? b) Compute the x-squared statistic.

1. The percentage of 12- to 17-year-olds who reported talking at least once in the past year with their parents about the dangers of drug, tobacco, or alcohol is 60% nationally. A state youth council believes this proportion is higher in their state, where there has been an intense media campaign about this issue. A survey of randomly chosen students from across the state shows 1032 of 1642 students reporting they are having these conversations with their parents. Is there evidence that the percent of students using drugs, tobacco or alcohol in this state is above the national rate?

An art authenticator has a history of successfully identifying forgeries. Over her career, she has been asked to evaluate 74 actual forgeries and correctly identified 69 of them. Further, among all the authentic art she has looked at, she has never claimed any to be forgeries. An art dealer is considering purchasing a painting but is worried it is a fake. His experience in the field over the years indicates about 3% of the artwork he comes across is forged. a) If the dealer employs the services of the authenticator, and she indicates the painting is genuine, what is the chance it is actually a forgery? b) Without authentication, the dealer can sell the painting for $20,000. The price would increase to $25,000 if the painting were authenticated as genuine, but obviously it is worthless if it is deemed a forgery. The authenticator charges $2,000 for her services. Do you think it is worth it for the dealer to use the authenticator? Why or why not?
