4. A hospital branch located in a commercial district of a city has developed an improved process for serving costumers during the early morning from 7:am to 9:00 am. The waiting time (defined as the time costumer fall in line until he or she is finished with her/his transaction) of all costumers during this hour is recorded over a period of 1 week. A random sample of 20 costumers is selected, and the results are as follows: 5.21 4.35 4.02 5.43 3.77 4.34 4.54 3.90 5.10 6.05 5.46 6.29 4.79 2.45 3.69 5.15 4.20 5.10 3.12 1.38 At the 0.05 level of significance, is there evidence that the mean waiting time is less than 5 minutes?

An amusement park keeps track of the percentage of individuals with season passes according to age category. An independent tourist company would like to show that this distribution of age category for individuals buying season passes is different from what the amusement park claims. The tourist company randomly sampled 200 individuals entering the park with a season pass and recorded the number of individuals within each age category. Age Category Child (under 13 years old) Teen (13 to 19 years old) Adult (20 to 55 years old) Senior (56 years old and over) Number of Individuals 56 86 44 14 The tourist company will use the data to test the amusement park’s claim, which is reflected in the following null hypothesis. H0:pchild=0.23H0:pchild=0.23, pteen=0.45pteen=0.45, padult=0.20padult=0.20, and psenior=0.12psenior=0.12. What inference procedure will the company use to investigate whether or not the distribution of age category for individuals with season passes is…
A survey of 2322adults in a certain large country aged 18 and older conducted by a reputable polling organization found that 416 have donated blood in the past two years. Complete parts (a) through (c) below. (a) Obtain a point estimate for the population proportion of adults in the country aged 18 and older who have donated blood in the past two years. P=
. There are 20290 protein coding genes in the human genome. The total length of all 22 autosomal chromosomes plus the two sex chromosomes is 1052 mm. The length of the X chromosome is 53 mm. We assume that the size of protein coding genes is equal among chromosomes. We're interested in testing whether the number of protein coding genes is evenly distributed among chromosomes including the sex chromosomes. Calculate the EXPECTED number of protein coding genes on the X chromosome.
Each of the following samples are from a tangible or conceptual (intangible) population. For each, define the population and pick whether this population is tangible or conceptual. (a) Sixty college students at L University were interviewed and asks whether they voted in the election 2022. Pick one: Tangible or Conceptual (b) A new forging process produces ten steel beams and the strength (in MPa) of each is measured and recorded. Pick one: Tangible or Conceptual (c) Twenty-five bags of M&M’s Milk Chocolate Fun Size Candy were randomly selected from a batch of mass production. The number of colors of candies in each of the bags were recorded. Pick one: Tangible or Conceptual (d) The voltage (in Volt) of a potato was measured by a sensitive multimeter for ten times. Pick one: Tangible or Conceptual
A mayor running for re-election claims that during his term, average municipal taxes have fallen by $125. A conscientious statistician wants to test this claim. He surveys 37 of his neighbors and finds that their taxes decreased (in dollars) as follows: 121, 139, 121, 125, 118, 145, 141, 91, 127, 136, 144, 154, 131, 139, 139, 125, 108, 130, 125, 106, 137, 148, 154, 134, 137, 112, 96, 114, 114, 126, 133, 129, 94, 129, 148, 163, 121 The statistician assumes a population standard deviation of $19. Do you think the statistician should reject the mayor's claim? Why or why not? Step 1: State the hypothesis. ?v= Step 2: Determine the Features of the Distribution of Point Estimates Using the Central Limit Theorem. By the Central Limit Theorem, we know that the point estimates are [Select an answer with distribution mean and distribution standard deviation Step 3: Assuming the Claim is True, Find the Probability of Obtaining the Point Estimate.

1. Explain the difference between z-tests (which use categorical data), and t-tests (which use numerical data). 2. Conduct a t-test, both when given statistics, and when given data. 3. Conduct a t-test, 2-sample t-test, and paired t-test. 4. Differentiate between the five types of tests we have learned so far.
