4. The National Sleep Foundation conducts an annual survey to track sleep related behaviors of U.S. adults. In their most recent survey, a random sample of 1,018 adults answered the question "About how much actual sleep would you estimate you typically get on work nights or weeknights?" The frequency table below summarizes the responses by whether they were less than, equal to, or more than the recommended 7 to 9 hours of sleep and by the age group of the respondent. Less Than 7 Hours Typical Weeknight Sleep Time Recommended 7 to 9 Hours More Than Age Group 9 Hours Total 18 - 34 44 78 109 231 35 - 54 144 200 218 562 55 or older 47 77 101 225 Total 235 355 428 1,018 At the a =0.05 significance level, do the data provide convincing statistical evidence that there is an association between age group and typical weeknight sleep time for adults in the United States?

The U.S. National Center for Health Statistics publishes data on weights and heights by age and sex in Vital and Health Statistics. The following (sorted) weights, to the nearest tenth of a pound, were obtained from a sample of 18-24-year-old males: 129. 2, 129. 3, 147, 150. 1, 151. 9, 154. 4, 155. 8, 156. 5, 158. 1, 160. 5, 160. 7, 162, 169. 7, 169.8, 173.3, 174. 6, 178. 4, 180. 7, 185, 189. 5, 214. 5, 215. 6, 217. 6, 218. 9, 219. 4.

he Computer Anxiety Rating Scale (CARS) measures an individual’s level of computer anxiety, on a scale from 20 (no anxiety) to 100 (highest level of anxiety). Researchers at Miami University administered CARS to 172 business students. One of the objectives of the study was to determine whether there are differences in the amount of computer anxiety experienced by students with different majors. They found the following: Major n Mean Marketing 19 44.37 Management 11 43.18 Other 14 42.21 Finance 45 41.80 Accountancy 36 37.56 MIS 47 32.21 (A) Complte the following ANOVA table: Source of Variation SS df MS F-ratio F-crit Between groups 3172 5 634.4 4.9567 2.2685 Within groups 21246 166 127.988 Total 24418 171 (A) At the 0.05 level of significance, is there evidence of a difference in the mean computer anxiety…

Matt Gaetz, a health educator, wants to evaluate the effect of a dental film on the frequency with which children brush their teeth. A random selection of 8 children are used for the experiment. First, a baseline of the number of times the children brush their teeth over a month's period is established. Next, the children are shown the dental film and again the number of teeth brushings are recorded for a month. The following data are recorded. Subject 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 After Film 28 29 25 30 25 27 28 24 Baseline 25 28 22 30 26 24 25 22 a. What is the null hypothesis? b. What is the alternative hypothesis c. What is your conclusion, using an alpha of 0.05 (2 tailed)?
The mean birthweight of an infant is thought to be associated with the smoking status of the mother during the first trimester of the pregnancy. Consider the following data from mothers divided into four categories according to smoking habits, and the corresponding birthweights of their children. Group 1: Mother is a non smoker (NON): 7.5, 6.2, 6.9, 7.4, 9.2, 8.3, 7.6 Group 2: Mother is an ex-smoker (EX): 5.8, 7.3, 8.2, 7.1, 7.8 Group 3: Mother is a current smoker, smokes less than 1 pack per day (CUR < 1) 5.9, 6.2, 5.8, 4.7, 8.3, 7.2, 6.2 Group 4: Mother is a current smoker, smokes more than or equal to 1 pack per day (Cur ≥ 1) 6.2, 6.8, 5.7, 4.9, 6.2, 7.1, 5.8, 5.4 Using Stata test whether or not the mean birthweights are equal across all four groups at the alpha = 0.05 level. What is the corresponding p-value? O 0.0284 0.0137 O 0.05 O 0.737

A local park district is planning to build a recreation center. The park district conducted a poll to find out the types of physical activities the local population would be interested in. The poll was based on telephone responses from 1013 randomly selected adults. The table shows the percentages of people who expressed interest in various activities. Is it reasonable to conclude that 62% expressed interest in either biking or aerobics? A. Yes, because the percentages can always be added in relative frequency tables. B. No, because the poll is not based on a large-enough number of individuals. C. Yes, because these categories do not overlap. D. No, because these categories overlap. E. No, because the percentages in relative frequencies tables can never be added.
Income Tax and the IRS. In 2010, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) sampled 308,946 tax returns to obtain estimates of various parameters. Data were published in Statistics of Income, Individual Income Tax Returns. According to that document, the mean income tax per return for the returns sampled was $11,266. a. Explain the meaning of sampling error in this context.b. If, in reality, the population mean income tax per return in 2010 was $11,354, how much sampling error was made in estimating that parameter by the sample mean of $11,266?c. If the IRS had sampled 400,000 returns instead of 308,946, would the sampling error necessarily have been smaller? Explain your answer.d. In future surveys, how can the IRS increase the likelihood of small sampling error?
