A major car dealership has several stores in a big city. The owner wants to determine if there is a difference in the proportion of SUVS that are sold at stores A and B. The owner gathers the sales records for each store from the past year. A random sample of 55 receipts from store A shows that 30 of the sales were for SUVS. Another random sample of 60 receipts from store B shows that 42 of the sales were for SUVS. Assuming conditions for inference are met, what is the 999% confidence interval for the difference in proportions of sales that are SUVS? Find the z-table here.

A company is carrying out a consumer satisfaction survey for two of its products, product A and product B. The company believes that product A receives a higher proportion of satisfied customers than product B. Out of the 80 product A customers surveyed, 52 said they were satisfied with the product and out of the 100 product B customers surveyed, 42 said they were satisfied with the product. Use these sample statistics to compare the proportion of product A customers that are satisfied, p 1, and the proportion of product B customers that are satisfied, p 2. i) Carry out a hypothesis test for a significant difference between the two population proportions, at significance level α = 0.05. The hypotheses being tested are: H 0: p 1 - p 2 = 0 H a: p 1 - p 2 ≠ 0. Complete the test by filling in the blanks in the following:An estimate of the difference in population proportions is .The standard error is (3 dec places).The distribution is (examples: normal / t12 /…
A recent study looked at the relationship between condom use and the spread of AIDS, by following heterosexual couples in which one partner was infected with HIV. The couples were classified by their condom use. Of the 98 couples who always used condoms, 4 partners became infected with HIV. Of the 67 couples who did not always use condoms, 11 partners became infected. Test whether the proportions of partners who became infected with HIV are different for each group, using a 5% level of significance. Give each of the following: 1) the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses; 2) the appropriate test; 3) the decision rule; 4) the calculation of the test statistic; and 5) your conclusion including a comparison to alpha or the critical value.

In a study comparing banks in two countries, a sample of 142 matched pairs of banks was formed. Each pair contained one bank from country x and one from country y. The pairings were made in such a way that the two members were as similar as possible in regard to such factors as size and age. The ratio of total loans outstanding to total assets was calculated for each of the banks. For this ratio, the sample mean difference (country x - country y) was 0.0579, and the sample standard deviation of the differences was 0.3086. Test, against a two-sided alternative, the null hypothesis that the two population means are equal. (Assume α = 0.01.) Click the icon to view the critical values of the Student's t distribution.

A nationwide job recruiting firm wants to compare the annual incomes for childcare workers in New York and Illinois. Due to recent trends in the childcare industry, the firm suspects that the that the mean annual income of childcare workers in the state of New York is greater than the mean annual income of childcare workers in Illinois. To see if this is true, the firm selected a random sample of 15 childcare workers from New York and an independent random sample of 15 childcare workers from Illinois and asked them to report their mean annual income. The data obtained were as follows. Annual income in dollars New York 49378, 44459, 50396, 48428, 53720, 60711, 50900, 49846, 57630, 49813, 52923, 60662, 50060, 45923, 45433 Illinois 47959, 51289, 46467, 42758, 46502, 48032, 40452, 40702, 45428, 33593, 44348, 45763, 54745, 46015, 37396 Send data to calculator Send data to Excel The population standard deviations for the annual incomes of childcare workers in New York and in Illinois are…
An executive at the home office of Big Rock Life Insurance is considering three branch managers as candidates for promotion to vice president. The branch reports include records showing sales volume for each salesperson in the branch (in hundreds of thousands of dollars). A random sample of these records was selected for salespersons in each branch. All three branches are located in cities in which per capita income is the same. The executive wishes to compare these samples to see if there is a significant difference in performance of salespersons in the three different branches. If so, the information will be used to determine which of the managers to promote.

The state highway department is studying traffic patterns on one of the busiest highways in the state. As part of the study. the department needs to estimate the average number of vehicles that pass an intersection each day. One of the department's officer (Officer A) claims that on average, more than 15,000 cars passing the intersection. On the other hand. Officer B claims that on average, 18,000 cars passing the intersection. Meanwhile, a random sample of 64 days gives a sample mean of 14,205 cars and a sample standard deviation of 1,010 cars. Test both claim at 0.05 level of significance. Use the critical value approach and show the complete calculation steps for each testing. Whose claim is true?

Suppose we know that at a University XYZ that 30% of students receive an A in their introductory statistics class, 30% receive a B, 20% receive a C, 10% receive a D, and 10% receive an F. For comparison, a sample of 300 students at University ABC is taken and 20% received an A, 28% received a B, 26% received a C, 15% received a D, and the remaining students failed the class. When testing (at the 5% level of significance) whether the proportions between the two universities are different, what is the null and alternative hypotheses
