"At a certain college, it is estimated that about 65% of the students have cars on campus, and with this number, the parking lot is fully occupied. Would you suggest to increase the parking lot space if, in a random sample of 61 college students, 44 are found to have cars? Use 0.01 level of significance." A There is sufficent evidence to say that there is a need to increase the parking lot space. No sufficient data to make a conclusion. "Certainly, the parking lot is enough." It is safe to assume that the parking lot is enough
Suppose that in a random selection of 100 colored candies, 21% of them are blue. The candy company claims that the percentage of blue candies is equal to 20%. Use a 0.10 significance level to test that claim. H, p#0.2 Identify the test statistic for this hypothesis test. The test statistic for this hypothesis test is (Round to two decimal places as needed.)
Based on past experience, a hiring manager believes that less than one-third of applicants are actually qualified for an entry-level position. Suppose that in a random sample of 144 aplicants for this position, 63 are found to be qualified. Do the sample data support the manager's belief? Test the relvant hypothesis using a=0.05

3. In a two-tailed test of hypotheses, the level of significance is 10%, and the sample size is 13. The value of the test statistic t = –1.972 Therefore, we do not reject H0 Select one: True False
Driving test You are about to take the road test for yourdriver’s license. You hear that only 34% of candidatespass the test the first time, but the percentage rises to72% on subsequent retests.a) Create a plan for a simulation to estimate theaverage number of tests drivers take in order to geta license.b) Here are results of 100 trials of a simulation. Use theseresults to estimate the average number of tests driverstake in order to get a license.
A preliminary study regarding the number of AIDS cases reported for Santa Clara County, California is broken down by race in the table below. White Hispanic Black Asian/Pacific Islander Total Race White Hispanic Black Cases Conduct a chi-square test for goodness-of-fit to determine whether or not the occurrence of AIDS cases is consistent with the race distribution of Santa Clara County. 28 Choose the correct null and alternative hypotheses: O Ho: The distribution of AIDS cases is different from the race distribution in Santa Clara County. Ha: The distribution of AIDS cases is consistent with the race distribution in Santa Clara County.

When dragons on planet Pern lay eggs, the eggs are either green or yellow. The biologists have observed over the years that 20% of the eggs are yellow, and the rest green. Next spring the lead scientist has permission to randomly select 67 of the dragon eggs to incubate. Consider all the possible samples of 67 dragon eggs. What is the mean number of yellow eggs in samples of 67 eggs? (that is the same as asking for the expected value of the number of yellow eggs) (Give answer correct to at least one decimal place.) mean = What is the standard deviation in the number of yellow eggs in samples of size 67? (Give answer correct to at least one decimal place.) standard deviation = What is the variance in the number of yellow eggs in samples of size 67? (Remember to calculate the answer using at least 5 decimal places, then give answer correct to at least one decimal place.) variance =
The researchers found that 83.3% of students in the sample have rarely or never used the food pantry on campus. We will test whether it is plausible that more than 80% of all students on campus have rarely or never used the campus food pantry. Identify (describe in words) the parameter and include the appropriate symbol. State the null and alternative hypotheses in symbols. Use the One proportion inference applet to create a distribution of 1000 simulated sample statistics (with the “Proportion of successes” option) and include a screenshot below that shows what you entered in the applet as well as the resulting distribution. Check the Summary Statistics box and explain why the values of the mean and SD (SE) make sense according to theory-based methods. Use the applet to find a p-value for this situation. Explain how you do this, and include a screenshot that shows the relevant portion of the applet, including the distribution of simulated sample statistics. State the value of…

Assume that a simple random sample has been selected from a normally distributed population and test the given claim.A researcher wants to test the claim that convicted burglars spend an average of 18.7 months in jail. She takes a random sample of 11 such cases from court files and finds that x = 21.3 months and s = 5.7 months. Test the claim at the 0.05 significance level.State the claim in words: Convicted Burglars spend an average of 18.7 months in jail. Ho μ = 18.7 H1 μ ≠ 18.7 What calculator function is needed? p value = __________ Since p ________ α, ________________________ the null hypothesis. Final conclusion:
