- In a study conducted by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, a sample of 546 boys aged 6–11 was weighed, and it was determined that 87 of them were overweight. A sample of 508 girls aged 6–11 was also weighed, and 74 of them were overweight. Can you conclude that the proportion of boys who are overweight differs from the proportion of girls who are overweight? Please show calculIn a survey of working parents (both parents working), one of the questions asked was "Have you refused a job, promotion, or transfer because it would mean less time with your family?" 480 men and 480 women were asked this question. 21% of the men and 27% of the women responded "Yes". Based on this survey, can it be concluded that there is a difference in the proportion of men ( p1 ) and women ( p2 ) responding "Yes"? Use a significance level of α=0.1 for the test. Step 2 of 5 : Compute the weighted estimate of p, p‾. Round your answer to three decimal places.Alcohol abuse has been described by college presidents as the number one problem on campus, and it is an important cause of death in young adults. How common is it? A survey of 10,904 randomly selected U.S. college students collected information on drinking behavior and alcohol-related problems. The researchers defined “frequent binge drinking” as having five or more drinks in a row three or more times in the past two weeks. According to this definition, 2486 students were classified as frequent binge drinkers. Construct and interpret a 99% confidence interval for the proportion of students who are classified as binge drinkers. (Use the four-step process and Table A to get your z* value.) Using the interval that you calculated in the last question, conclude in context for the question.
- You may need to use the appropriate appendix table or technology to answer this question. Fewer young people are driving. In year A, 62.9% of people under 20 years old who were eligible had a driver's license. Twenty years later in year B that percentage had dropped to 48.7%. Suppose these results are based on a random sample of 1,500 people under 20 years old who were eligible to have a driver's license in year A and again in year B. (a) At 95% confidence, what is the margin of error of the number of eligible people under 20 years old who had a driver's license in year A? (Round your answer to four decimal places.) At 95% confidence, what is the interval estimate of the number of eligible people under 20 years old who had a driver's license in year A? (Round your answers to four decimal places.) _________ to ______________ (b) At 95% confidence, what is the margin of error of the number of eligible people under 20 years old who had a driver's license in year B? (Round your…Suppose that 73.2% of all adults with type 2 diabetes also suffer from hypertension. After developing a new drug to treat type 2 diabetes, a team of researchers at a pharmaceutical company wanted to know if their drug had any impact on the incidence of hypertension for diabetics who took their drug. The researchers selected a random sample of 1000 participants who had been taking their drug as part of a recent large-scale clinical trial and found that 718 suffered from hypertension. The researchers want to use a one‑sample ?z‑test for a population proportion to see if the proportion of type 2 diabetics who have hypertension while taking their new drug, ?p, is different from the proportion of all type 2 diabetics who have hypertension. They decide to use a significance level of ?=0.01α=0.01. Determine the value of the ?z‑test statistic. Give your answer precise to two decimal places. Determine the ?-valueP-value for this test. Give your answer precise to three decimal places.If the odds of catching the flu among individuals who take vitamin C is 0.0342 and the odds of catching the flu among individuals not taking vitamin C is 0.2653, then the individuals not taking vitamin C are 7.7573 times more likely to catch the flu than individuals taking vitamin C. True False
- 3. Researchers Regine Dilla and associates wanted to determine whether consumption of cola is associated with lower bone mineral density. They looked at 1125 men and 1413 women in the Framingham Osteoporosis Study, which is a cohort that began in 1971. The first examination in this study began between 1971 and 1975, with participants returning for an examination every 4 years. Based on results of questionnaires, the researchers were able to determine cola consumption on a weekly basis. Analysis of the results indicated that women who consumed at least one cola per day (on average) had a bone mineral density that was significantly lower at the femoral neck than those who consumed less than one cola per day. The researchers did not find this relation in men. (a)Why is this a cohort study? (b)What is the response variable in this study? What is the explanatory variable? (c)Is the response variable qualitative or quantitative?The state of Florida reports that 75% of all patients first diagnosed with a spinal cord injury are males.Sleep apnea is a condition in which the sufferers stop breathing momentarily while they are asleep. This condition results in lack of sleep and extreme fatigue during waking hours. A current estimate is that 11.911.9 million out of the 312.7312.7 million Americans suffer from sleep apnea, or approximately 3.8%3.8%. A safety commission is concerned about the percentage of commercial truck drivers who suffer from sleep apnea. They do not have any reason to believe that it would be higher or lower than the population’s percentage. To test the claim that the percentage of commercial truck drivers who suffer from sleep apnea is not 3.8%3.8%, a simple random sample of 347347 commercial truck drivers is examined by a medical expert, who concludes that 66 suffer from sleep apnea. Does this evidence support the claim that the percentage of commercial truck drivers who suffer from sleep apnea is not 3.8%3.8%? Use a 0.020.02 level of significance. Step 3 of 4 : Find the p-value. Round…
- Based on information from Harper's Index, 37 out of a random sample of 100 adult Americans who did not attend college believe in extraterrestrials. However, out of a random sample of 100 adult Americans who did attend college, 47 claim that they believe in extraterrestrials. Does this indicate that the proportion of people who attend college and who believe in extraterrestrials is higher than the proportion who did not attend college? (a) State the hypotheses in plain language. (b) Fill in the table below, then enter this table in the left side of the Rossman-Chance applet.

As a result, people often assume that suicide rates increase in winter. A study in Finland (Valtonen et al. 2006) divided the year 1997 into equal halves and compared the number of suicides in “winter” (24 September to 19 March) and “summer” (remainder of year). Out of a total of 1636 suicides, 766 were in winter and 870 were in the summer. Based on these data, estimate the proportion of suicides that occurred in winter, assuming that the suicides were independent. Are the data compatible with a greater suicide rate in winter than summer, based on a 95% confidence interval?The National Highway traffic Safety Administration requires each U.S. state to carry out an observational study to assess the level of seat belt use in the state.
