A CBS News poll conducted June 10 and 11, 2006, among a nationwide random sample of 651 adults, asked those adults about their party affiliation (Democrat, Republican or none) and their opinion of how the US economy was changing ("getting better," "getting worse" or "about the same"). The results are shown in the table below. better same worse Republican 38 104 44 Democrat 12 87 137 none 21 90 118 Express your answers as a decimal and round to four decimal places.

An educational psychologist is interested in whether using a child’s own name in a story affected attention span while reading. Six children were randomly assigned to read a story under ordinary conditions (using common and generic names). Five other children read versions of the same story, but with each child’s ownname substituted for one of the children in the story. The researcher measured the amount of time (in minutes) each child spent reading the story. The results are shown in the following table. Does including the child’s namemake any difference in attention span? Test the hypothesis at an alpha set to .05, following these steps: a) write the null and alternative hypotheses; b) determine the critical value(s); c) draw the comparison distribution with rejection region(s) shaded; d)use the correct formula to compute the test statistic; e) state the statistical decision; f) state a brief conclusion.

According to a Pew Research Center nationwide telephone survey of American adults conducted by phone between March 15 and April 24, 2011, 75% of adults said that college education has become too expensive for most people and they cannot afford it (Time, May 30, 2011). Suppose that this result is true for the 2011 population of American adults. In a recent poll of 1575 American adults, 1160 said that college education has become too expensive for most people and they cannot afford it. Using a 1% significance level, perform a test of hypothesis to determine whether the current percentage of American adults who will say that college education has become too expensive for most people and they cannot afford it is lower than 75%. Use both the p-value and the critical-value approaches. Round your answers for the observed value of z and the critical value of z to two decimal places, and the p-value to four decimal places. Zobserved = p-value = i Critical value = i We can conclude that the…

Suppose that this result is true for the 2011 population of American adults. In a recent poll of 1575 American adults, 1155 said that college education has become too expensive for most people and they cannot afford it. Using a 2.5% significance level, perform a test of hypothesis to determine whether the current percentage of American adults who will say that college education has become too expensive for most people and they cannot afford it is lower than 75%. Use both the p-value and the critical-value approaches. Round your answers for the observed value of z and the critical value of z to two decimal places, and the p-value to four decimal places.

In a study of high school students at least 16 years of age, researchers obtained the survey results summarized in the table below (based on data from “Texting While Driving and Other Risk Motor Vehicle Behaviors Among U.S. High School Students” by O’Malley, Shults, and Eaton, Pediatrics, 131, No.6). Irregular Seat Belt Use? Yes No RT Texted While Driving 1737 2048 3785 Did not Text While Driving 1945 2775 4720 Column total 3682 4823 8505 State the null and alternative hypotheses. Null hypothesis: H0 Texting when driving is independent of irregular seat belt use. Alternative hypothesis: Texting when driving is dependent of irregular seat belt use. Assuming independence, what are the expected frequencies for each of these variables? E=(row total)(column total) (grand total) What is the value of the X2 statistic? X2=E(0-E)2…
In a study, investigators surveyed individuals by telephone about how often they get tension headaches. One response variable that was measured was whether or not the respondent had experienced an episodic tension-type headache (ETTH) in the prior year. A headache pattern was called "episodic" if the headaches occurred less often than 15 times a month; otherwise, the headaches were called "chronic." Of the 1,660 women in the survey aged 18 to 29, a total of 658 said that they had experienced ETTHs in the last year. Of the 2,172 women in the 30- to 39-year-old age group, the number having experienced episodic headaches was 996. (a) Calculate the proportion who experienced an episodic headache in the prior year in the 18 to 29 group. (Round your answer to four decimal places.) Calculate the proportion who experienced an episodic headache in the prior year in the 30 to 39 group. (Round your answer to four decimal places.) Compute the difference in these two proportions.

A random sample of single males and single females (ages 21 to 76) was obtained. The sample includes those currently separated, divorced, or widowed. The subjects were given a trait and asked to respond whether the trait was a deal-breaker in terms of maintaining the relationship.

A study published in the American Journal of Public Health was conducted to determine whether the use of seat belts in motor vehicles depends on ethnic status in San Diego County. A sample of 792 children treated for injuries sustained from motor vehicle accidents was obtained, and each child was classified according to (1) ethnic status (Hispanic or non-Hispanic) and (2) seat belt usage (worn or not worn) during the accident. The number of children in each category is given in the table below. Ethnicity Seat belt worn Hispanic Non-Hispanic Total Yes 30 149 179 No 280 333 613 Total 310 482 792 She is interested to use this table to do a test of independence with a level of significance of 0.01. What is the conclusion of this test?
