A historian examining British colonial records for the Gold Coast in Africa suspects that the death rate was higher among African miners than among European miners. In the year 1936, there were 245 deaths among 34002 African miners and 7 deaths among 1503 European miners on the Gold Coast. Consider this year as a sample from the pre-war era in Africa. Is there good evidence that the proportion of African miners who died was higher than the proportion of European miners who died? Follow the Inference Toolbox. (Use a =.05.) Z= 1.13 P-value - 0.13 Conclusion O There is significant evidence that the proportion of African miners who died is higher than the proportion of European miners who died. There is no evidence that the proportion of African miners who died is higher than the proportion of European miners who died.

A businesswoman is considering whether to open a coffee shop in a local shopping center. Before making this decision, she wants to know how much money people spend per week at coffee shops in that area. She took a random sample of 26 customers from the area who visit coffee shops and asked them to record the amount of money (in dollars) they would spend during the next week at coffee shops. At the end of the week, she obtained the following data (in dollars) from these 26 customers: 16.63 38.63 15.14 14.47 5.01 63.64 10.19 13.28 32.25 36.00 16.19 65.91 10.28 37.14 3.22 6.92 34.65 6.40 36.35 27.59 38.67 13.18 9.80 9.48 1.21 5.19 Assume that the distribution of weekly expenditures at coffee shops by all customers who visit coffee shops in this area is approximately normal.

The American Water Works Association reports that, The average household water usage is more than 10 gallons per day. However, in a pandemic like this, it is suspected that there is a change in household water consumption. A researcher conducted a survey and took samples of 12 household heads and asked about the use of the gallon water. The data obtained are as follows: 74, 8, 13, 17, 13, 15, 12, 13, 15, 16, 9, 7. If it is known that the data is normally distributed. Use a significance level of 5% to test whether the average household water use has increased (greater than 10 gallons)? What will happen if the household's water use increases by 5% from the previous one? Analyze your answer and come up with a conclusion!
