The authors of a paper classified characters who were depicted smoking in movies released between a certain range of years. The smoking characters were classified according to sex and whether the character type was positive, negative, or neutral. The resulting data are summarized in the accompanying table. Assume that it is reasonable to consider this sample of smoking movie characters as representative of smoking movie characters. Do the data provide evidence an association between sex and character type for movie characters who smoke? Use α = 0.05. Sex = Male Female Positive Negative Neutral 256 Character Type 85 107 11 132 51 Calculate the test statistic. (Round your answer to two decimal places.) x² Use technology to calculate the P-value.

A financial analyst is examining the relationship between stock prices and earnings per share. She chooses sixteen publicly traded companies at random and records for each the company's current stock price and the company's earnings per share reported for the past 12 months. Her data are given below, with x denoting the earnings per share from the previous year and y denoting the current stock price (both in dollars). A scatter plot of her data is shown in Figure 1. Also given is the product of the earnings per share and the current stock price for each of the sixteen stocks. (These products, written in the column labelled "xy ", may aid in calculations.)

A father is concerned that his teenage son is watching too much television each day, since his son watches an average of 2 hours per day His son says that his TV habits are no different than those of his friends. Since this father has taken a stats class, he knows that can actually test to see whether or not his son is watching more TV than his peers The father collects a random sample of watching times from boys at his son's high school and gets the following data: 1.9, 2.3, 2.2, 1.9, 1.6, 2.6, 1.4, 2.0, 2.0, 2.2 Find a 95% confidence interval for the true mean number of hours teenagers at that school watch TV. a. Confidence Interval b. Conclusion
Do larger universities tend to have more property crime? University crime statistics are affected by a variety of factors. The surrounding community, accessibility given to outside visitors, and many other factors influence crime rate. Let x be a variable that represents student enrollment (in thousands) on a university campus, and let y be a variable that represents the number of burglaries in a year on the university campus. A random sample of n = 8 universities in California gave the following information about enrollments and annual burglary incidents. x 10.9 30.4 24.5 14.3 7.5 27.7 16.2 20.1 y 23 76 39 23 15 30 15 25 (a) Make a scatter diagram of the data. Then visualize the line you think best fits the data. A scatter diagram has a horizontal axis labeled "x (student enrollment (in thousands))" with values from 7.5 to 30.4 and a vertical axis labeled "y (annual number of burglaries)" with values from 15 to 76. The scatter diagram has 8 points. A pattern goes up and…

4) A psychiatrist has developed a measurement instrument for the mental state of patients. The test is on a scale of 0-100 (with higher scores meaning the patient is suffering from a higher level of mental duress). She randomly selects a group of individuals to take part in a study using this measurement instrument, and she develops a stem-and-leaf plot of her data as follows: 0 6 11178 2 3 0017899 42 5 67788999 6 7114444499 8 889 9 01 Based on the stem-and-leaf plot, answer the following questions: a. What is the mean, median and mode? b. Mean: 55.08571, median:58, mode:74 c. What is the range, variance and standard deviation? Range: 85, variance 635.4336, standard deviation: 25.20781 d. What is the 25th percentile? What is the interpretation of this value? e. What is the 75th percentile? What is the interpretation of this value? f. What is the interquartile range (IQR)? g.
