A student wishes to see if at her school the proportion of underclassmen who do not have have a job is greater than the proportion of upperclassmen who do not have have a job. To test her claim she randomly selects 257 underclassmen 55 did not have a job. She then randomly selects 288 upperclassmen and out of them 45 did not have a job. Test her claim at a=0.10 to see if she was right. Let underclassmen be sample 1 and upperclassmen be sample 2. The correct hypotheses are: Ho: P1 HA: P₁ O Ho: P1 HA P1 P2 P2(claim) P2 P2(claim) O Ho: P1 = P2 HA P1 The p-value is: P2(claim) Since the level of significance is 0.10 the critical value is 1.282 (round to 3 places) The test statistic is: (round to 3 places)

According to the historical data, the life expectancy in Argentina is equal to the life expectancy in Bolivia. A new study has been made to see whether this has changed. Records of 225 According to the historical data, the life expectancy in Argentina is equal to the life expectancy in Bolivia. A new study has been made to see whether this has changed. Records of 225 individuals from argentina who died recently are selected at random. The 225 individuals lived an average of 77.4 years with a standard deviation of 6.7 years. Records of 300 individuals from Ireland who died recently are selected at random and independently. The 300 individuals lived a mean of 76.5 years with a standard deviation of 5.3 years. Assume that the population standard deviations of lifetimes in these two countries can be estimated by the sample standard deviations, as the samples used were quite large. Construct a 90% confidence interval for , the difference between the life expectancy in the United States and…
