From candy to jewelry to flowers, the average consumer was expected to spend $104.63 for Mother’s Day in 2005, according to a Democrat & Chronicle article. Local merchants thought this average was too high for their area. They contracted an agency to conduct a study. A random sample of 60 consumers was taken at a local shopping mall the Saturday before Mother’s Day and produced the sample mean amount of $94.27. If σ = $29.50, does the sample provide sufficient evidence to support the merchants’ claim at the 0.03 level of significance? 1. Do you recognize any flaws in this study and what conclusions can you draw? The article “Well-fed Crickets Bowl Maidens Over” reports that female field crickets are attracted to males that have high chirp rates and hypothesized that chirp rate is related to nutritional status. The usual chirp rate doe male field crickets was reported to vary around a mean of 60 chirps per second. To investigate whether chirp rate was related to nutritional…

The government is interested to estimate the proportion of families gathering in the weekends, in a city. The city is divided into three blocks. A stratified random sample of 60 households was selected proportionately from each block considering the blocks as strata. The summary data of the survey are presented in the following table. Stratu Ni m (i) |X; Mean S; Pi 1 120 18 35.0 4.0 0.5 О.2 0.9 130 15 20.0 5.0 180 27 30.0 6.0 25 i) Estimate the proportion of family gathering in the weekend, and obtain a 95% confidence interval of your estimate. Interpret the results. ii) Find the appropriate sample size and its allocation for estimating the total family gathering, with a bound of 50 points on the error of estimation. Assume that the stratum standard deviations are o1=8, 02=12 and , o3=4. LO NO Oold 23
Bill Alther is a zoologist who studies Anna's hummingbird (Calypte anna). (Reference: Hummingbirds, K. Long, W. Alther.) Suppose that in a remote part of the Grand Canyon, a random sample of six of these birds was caught, weighed, and released. The weights (in grams) were as follows. 3.7 2.9 3.8 4.2 4.8 3.1 The sample mean is = 3.75 grams. Let x be a random variable representing weights of hummingbirds in this part of the Grand Canyon. We assume that x has a normal distribution and ? = 0.64 gram. Suppose it is known that for the population of all Anna's hummingbirds, the mean weight is ? = 4.30 grams. Do the data indicate that the mean weight of these birds in this part of the Grand Canyon is less than 4.30 grams? Use ? = 0.10. Level of significance = .10 Null and alternate hypotheses. - H0: ? = 4.3 g; H1: ? < 4.3 g; left-tailed Sampling Distribution - The standard normal, since we assume that x has a normal distribution with known ?
