- A random sample of n1n1 = 236 people who live in a city were selected and 90 identified as a "dog person." A random sample of n2n2 = 103 people who live in a rural area were selected and 56 identified as a "dog person." Find the 99% confidence interval for the difference in the proportion of people that live in a city who identify as a "dog person" and the proportion of people that live in a rural area who identify as a "dog person." Round answers to to 4 decimal places. ___________< p1−p2p1-p2 <_____________collected data from 150 surveys ne nanaed out at a busy park located in the region. To continue the study into the drinking habits of adults, the researcher decides to collect data from adults working in "white collar" jobs to see whether their drinking habits are in the same proportion as the general public. The null hypothesis for this test is Ho: p = 0.26 and the alternative hypothesis is Ha: p<0.26. The researcher collected data from a random sample of 120 adults with "white collar" jobs of which 25 stated that they drank once a week or less in the last month. Assume that the conditions that must be met in order for us to use the N(0, 1) distribution as the sampling distribution are satisfied. Find the values of the sample proportion, p, the test statistic, and the p-value associated with the test statistic. Round all values to the nearest thousandth. P = 0.30, z = 0.803, p-value = 0.041 A P = 0.208, z = -1.290, p-value = 0.098 P = 0.75, z = -1.32, p-value = 0.599 P = 0.208, z =…Determine if the samples are independent or related. Two formulations of a new whitening soap are compared to their whitening effect. A random sample of 40 potential users of the soap is selected. Each person uses a randomization mechanism to determine which formulation is applied on the left arm so that the other formulation is applied on the right arm. After two weeks, they measured the effect of each formulation.
- In a survey of 180 females who recently completed high school, 75% were enrolled in college. In a survey of 160 males who recently completed high school,70 % were enrolled in college. At a=.009, can you reject the claim that there is no difference in the proportion of college enrollees between the two groups? Assume the random samples are independent. Complete parts (a) through (e).Researchers selected 848 patients at random among those who take a certain widely-used prescription drug daily. In a clinical trial, 18 out of the 848 patients complained of flulike symptoms. Suppose that it is known that 1.6% of patients taking competing drugs complain of flulike symptoms. Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that more than 1.6% of this drug's users experience flulike symptoms as a side effect at the a = 0.01 level of significance? ... 10, the sample size is Because npo (1-Po) = population size, and the patients in the sample requirements for testing the hypothesis (Round to one decimal place as needed.) satisfied. 5% of the selected at random, all of theThe manufacturer of a new racecar engine claims that the proportion of engine failures due to overheating for this new engine, (p1), will be no higher than the proportion of engine failures due to overheating of the old engines, (p2). To test this statement, NASCAR took a random sample of 115 of the new racecar engines and 120 of the old engines. They found that 12 of the new racecar engines and 9 of the old engines failed due to overheating during the test. Does NASCAR have enough evidence to reject the manufacturer's claim about the new racecar engine? Use a significance level of α=0.1 for the test. Step 1 of 6 : State the null and alternative hypotheses for the test. Step 2 of 6 : Find the values of the two sample proportions, pˆ1p^1 and pˆ2p^2. Round your answers to three decimal places.

- Magnetic surveying is one technique used by archaeologists to determine anomalies arising from variations in magnetic susceptibility. Unusual changes in magnetic susceptibility might (or might not) indicate an important archaeological discovery. Let x be a random variable that represents a magnetic susceptibility (MS) reading for a randomly chosen site at an archaeological research location. A random sample of 120 sites gave the readings shown in the table below.The manufacturer of a new racecar engine claims that the proportion of engine failures due to overheating for this new engine, (p1), will be no higher than the proportion of engine failures due to overheating of the old engines, (p2). To test this statement, NASCAR took a random sample of 135 of the new racecar engines and 175 of the old engines. They found that 14 of the new racecar engines and 8 of the old engines failed due to overheating during the test. Does NASCAR have enough evidence to reject the manufacturer's claim about the new racecar engine? Use a significance level of α=0.01 for the test. Step 3 of 6 : Compute the weighted estimate of p, p‾. Round your answer to three decimal places.A study in a journal published by the American Academy of Pediatrics (as reported in the Miami Herald, Jan. 14, 1997) seems to suggest that preschoolers who drink more than 12 ounces of fruit juice a day tend to be heavier and shorter than preschoolers who do not. The study involved a random sample of 168 healthy youngsters of whom 59 drank on average more than 12 ounces of fruit juice per day. Each child was weighed and measured. The measurements were then converted to percentage of normal height and weight for a child of that age and gender. For example, a weight percentage of 1.1 indicates that the child is 10% heavier than average. A recorded 0.80 indicates the child is 20% below the average. An average weight is recorded as 1.0. Same with height. Column 1: Juice 1- indicates child DID drink > 12 oz 2- child DID NOT drink > 12 oz Column 2: Weight% weight converted to percent of…
- Female undergraduates in randomized groups of 15 took part in a self-esteem study. The study measured an index of self-esteem from the point of view of competence, social acceptance, and physical attractiveness. Let x1, x2, and x3 be random variables representing the measure of self-esteem through x1 (competence), x2 (social acceptance), and x3 (attractiveness). Higher index values mean a more positive influence on self- esteem. Variable Sample Mean Standard Deviation Population Size Мean 15 19.48 2.92 X1 X2 X3 (a) Find a 90% confidence interval for u1 - 42.

In 2010, it was estimated [10] that 24% of adults in the US did not use the internet. Improved internet infrastructure, the ability to connect with others, and many other factors seem to be contributing to more people using the internet. Suppose we randomly select 120 individuals and ask them whether or not they use the internet. Suppose we find that 12 people do not use the internet. Conduct a hypothesis test using α = .01. Make sure to state the null and alternative hypotheses, state the appropriate test statistic, set up the rejection region, find the P-value for this test, make your conclusion using both the rejection region method and the P-value, and state your conclusion in the context of the problem.
