A local arts council has 200 members. The council president wanted to estimate the percent of its members who have had experience in writing grants. " president randomly selected 30 members and surveyed the selected members on their grant-writing experience. Of the 30 selected members, 12 indicate they did have the experience. Have the conditions for inference with a one-sample z-interval been met? A Yes, all conditions for inference have been met. No, because the sample size is not large enough to satisfy the conditions for normality. No, because the sample was not selected at random. No, because the sample size is not less than 10 percent of the population size. E No, because the sample is not representative of the population.

The type of probabilistic sampling where the researcher take the list or map and give each unit a number, write the numbers on individual slips of paper, put them in a bag and mix the slip up thoroughly, and then draw out the number of slips required is known as……………………………….. systematic random sampling. stratified random sampling. cluster sampling. simple random sampling.
A company that produces a particular brand of juice knows that about 30% of people select that brand if given a choice of all brands. To determine if a commercial would be an effective advertising tool, the company invites 100 people to view a 30-minute program that includes a commercial for the company’s juice. After the program, the participants are offered a choice of juice brands. In this trial, 36 of the 100 participants chose the company’s juice. When a significance test was performed to determine if the true proportion of people who watch the commercial and select the company’s juice exceeds 30%, the P-value was 0.0952. At the α = 0.05 significance level, what decision should the company make? A. Because the P-value of 0.0952 > α = 0.05, the company has evidence that the true proportion of those who would select the company’s juice is larger than 30%. B. Because the P-value of 0.0952 < 0.3, the company has evidence that the true proportion of those who would select the…

Gay marriage. In May 2012, a CNN/ORC Poll asked arandom sample of 1009 U.S. adults this question:Do you think marriages between gay and lesbian couplesshould or should not be recognized by the law as valid,with the same rights as traditional marriages?Of those polled, 54% said they favored marriage equality,the highest percentage to date.a) Create a 95% confidence interval for the percentageof all American adults who support marriageequality.b) Based on your confidence interval, can you conclude that a majority of U.S. adults support legally recog-nizing gay marriages? Explain. c) If pollsters wanted to follow up on this poll with an-other survey that could determine the level of support for gay marriage to within 2% with 98% confidence,how many people should they poll?
On April 15th, 1912, the R.M.S. Titanic sank into the North Atlantic Ocean, resulting in the loss of more than 1,500 passengers and crew. Below is a table which summarizes the total number of passengers and the number of survivors for the crew, first-, second-, and third-class. Find the proportion of survivors by type of service (crew, first, second, third). Test the hypothesis at the 99% confidence level that the proportion of first-class survivors is the same as third class (.25).What do you calculate for the test-statistic? What is the critical statistic? What is the conclusion of your hypothesis test? Passengers survivedCrew 885 212First 325 202Second 285 118Third 706 178Total 2201 710
You work for a marketing firm that has a large client in the automobile industry. You have been asked to estimate the proportion of households in Chicago that have two or more vehicles. You have been assigned to gather a random sample that could be used to estimate this proportion to within a 0.035 margin of error at a 99% level of confidence. a) With no prior research, what sample size should you gather in order to obtain a 0.035 margin of error? b) Your firm has decided that your plan is too expensive, and they wish to reduce the sample size required. You conduct a small preliminary sample, and you obtain a sample proportion of ˆp=0.185. Using this new information. what sample size should you gather in order to obtain a 0.035 margin of error
Define the related-repeated (pre/post) two-sample t-test and the related-matched two-sample t-test.
I am to do a project for an inferential statistics class and I would like some basic guidance. I am to propose a research question. My proposed research question is "Does drinking stimulants such as coffee improve a student's grades?" My question is what do you think the best population for such a question would be if I am strictly doing research off of the internet? What do you think the variables would be? What method of sampling do you think would be best to incorporate?
To apply the two-sample t procedures, use Option 1 if you have technology that implements that method. Otherwise, use Option 2. Researchers gave 40 index cards to a waitress at an Italian restaurant in New Jersey. Before delivering the bill to each customer, the waitress randomly selected a card and wrote on the bill the same message that was printed on the index card. Twenty of the cards had the message "The weather is supposed to be really good tomorrow. I hope you enjoy the day!" Another 20 cards contained the message "The weather is supposed to be not so good tomorrow. I hope you enjoy the day anyway!" After the customers left, the waitress recorded the amount of the tip (percent of bill) before taxes. Here are the tips for those receiving the good-weather message. 21.0 18.8 20.3 20.9 21.9 23.7 22.8 25.2 22.7 20.8 25.1 22.3 27.3 21.0 22.5 24.2 21.3 22.3 22.0 23.2 The tips for the 20 customers who received the bad-weather message are below. 19.3 18.8 16.1 17.1 14.4 18.0 19.1 19.4…

The business college computing center wants to determine the proportion of business students who have personal computers (PC's) at home, because if the proportion exceeds 25%, then the lab will scale back a proposed enlargement of its facilities. Suppose 300 business students were randomly sampled and 65 have PC's at home. Should they use a hypothesis test or a confidence interval to answer this question? a) Hypothesis test. b) Confidence interval.
Past studies have indicated that the percentage of smokers was estimated to be about 33%. Given the new smoking cessation programs that have been implemented, you now believe that the percentage of smokers has reduced. You randomly surveyed 1902 people and found that 579 smoke. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the percentage of smokers has reduced. a) Identify the null and alternative hypotheses? b) What type of hypothesis test should you conduct (left-, right-, or two-tailed)? c) Identify the appropriate significance level. d) Calculate your test statistic (Use ˆpp^ rounded to 4 decimal places). Write the result below, and round your test statistic to 4 decimal places. e) Calculate your p-value. Write the result below, rounded to four decimal places. f) Do you reject the null hypothesis? We reject the null hypothesis, since the p-value is less than the significance level. We reject the null hypothesis, since the p-value is not less than the significance level. We…
