A contract between a food chain and a supplier states that only 5% of the apples delivered by the supplier are allowed to be rotten. The food chain suspects that the supplier is breaking the contract and tests 200 apples. The food chain wants to test at significance level at most 1% the hypothesis Ho : The fraction of delivered apples that are rotten is 0.05, against

Two groups were polled about their attitudes towards capital punishment. In one group 30 out of 100 favored capital punishment, and in the other group 40 out of 80 favored capital punishment. Calculate an appropriate test value test the hypothesis that the population proportions are the same.
The records of a light bulb manufacturer show that, when the manufacturing machinery is working correctly, the defect rate (due to imperfections in the material used) is 1%. The manufacturer's control department periodically tests samples of the bulbs, and when 1.25% or more are defective, they call repair technicians for service. The control department is going to take a random sample of 4400 light bulbs. Let p be the proportion of defective light bulbs in the sample assuming the machinery is working correctly. A) find the mean of p b)find the standard deviation of p c)Compute an approximation for P≥p0.0125, which is the probability that, assuming the machinery is working correctly, the repair technicians will be called. Round your answer to four decimal places.

The control department is going to take a random sample of 4400 light bulbs. Let p be the proportion of defective light bulbs in the sample assuming the machinery is working correctly. Answer the following. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a) Find the mean of p. (b) Find the standard deviation of p. (c) Compute an approximation for P(P ≥ 0.0125), which is the probability that, assuming the machinery is working correctly, the repair technicians will be called. Round your answer to four decimal places.
The home run percentage is the number of home runs per 100 times at bat. A random sample of 43 professional baseball players gave the following data for home run percentages.
The accuracy of a census report on a city in southern California was questioned by some government officials. A random sample of 1215 people living in the city was used to check the report, and the results are shown below. Census Sample Result Ethnic Origin Percent Black 10% 123 Asian 3% 46 38% Anglo Latino/Latina 471 41% 505 Native American 6% 61 All others 2% 9. A USE SALT Using a 1% level of significance, test the claim that the census distribution and the sample distribution agree. (a) What is the level of significance? State the null and alternate hypotheses. O H: The distributions are the same. H: The distributions are different. O Ho: The distributions are different. H,: The distributions are the same. O Ho: The distributions are the same. H,: The distributions are the same. O Ho: The distributions are different. H: The distributions are different. (b) Find the value of the chi-square statistic for the sample. (Round the expected frequencies to at least three decimal places.…
A political scientist claims that 38% of first-year college students characterize themselves as being “moderate” or “middle of the road” as far as their political affiliation is concerned. Believing this claimed value is too high, you survey a random sample of 400 first-year college students and find that 120 characterize themselves as being “moderate” or “middle of the road.” Based on this information, what will the test statistic be? Choose the answer below that is closest to what you calculate, and try not to do a lot of rounding until you get to the very end of your calculations. 1. -0.3 2. -1.2 3. -2.6 4. -3.3 5. None of the other answer options are correct because the test statistic should be positive, not negative.
In a survey, 37% of the respondents stated that they talk to their pets on the telephone. A veterinarian believed this result to be too high, so he randomly selected 200 pet owners and discovered that 73 of them spoke to their pet on the telephone. Does the veterinarian have a right to be skeptical? Use the a = 0.1 level of significance. Because npo (1- Po) 10, the sample size is 5% of the population size, and the sample the requirements for testing the hypothesis satisfied. (Round to one decimal place as needed.)
