A presidential candidate's aide estimates that, among all college students, the proportion p who intend to vote in the upcoming election is at most 65%. If 192 out of a random sample of 270 college students expressed an intent to vote, can the aide's estimate be rejected at the 0.1 level of significance? Perform a one-tailed test. Then complete the parts below. Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places and round your answers as specified in the table. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.)

When debating the state appropriation for Penn State, the following question is asked: "Are the majority of students at Penn State from Pennsylvania?" (A majority is anything higher than 0.5). The school claims that there is a majority of students from Pennsylvania. A random sample of 500 students is taken and it is found that 278 of them are from Pennsylvania. Find the test statistic and p-value for this test. Round to two decimal places.
Español According to previous studies, 10% of the U.S. population is left-handed. Not knowing this, a high school student claims that the percentage of left-handed people in the U.S. is 12%. The student is going to take a random sample of 900 people in the U.S. to try to gather evidence to support the claim. Let p be the proportion of left-handed people in the sample. Answer the following. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a) Find the mean of p. 0.12 (b) Find the standard deviation of p. X 5 (c) Compute an approximation for P(p≤0.12), which is the probability that there will be 12% or fewer left-handed people in the sample. Round your answer to four decimal places. A 27
A researcher wants to determine the sensitivity of mammograms to determine how effective they are at diagnosing women who have breast cancer. Assume the researcher obtained the above results from a study, calculate and interpret the sensitivity of mammograms for detecting breast cancer. Frequency of Breast Cancer Cases Frequency of Non-Cancer Cases Frequency of Individuals Who Screened Positive 17 5 Frequency of Individuals Who Screened Negative 8 77 Group of answer choices: a. A total of 66.67% of individuals who have breast cancer test positive for breast cancer when using a mammogram as the primary diagnostic test for breast cancer. b. A total of 68% of individuals who have breast cancer test positive for breast cancer when using a mammogram as the primary diagnostic test for breast cancer. c. A total of 70.59% of individuals who have breast cancer test positive for breast cancer when using a mammogram as the primary diagnostic test for breast cancer. d. A total of…
A reader wrote in to the “Ask Marilyn” column in Parade magazine to say that his grandfather told him that in three-quarters of all baseball games, the winning team scores more runs in one inning than the losing team scores in the entire game. (This phenomenon is known as a “big bang.”) Marilyn responded that this proportion seemed too high to be believable. Let p be the proportion of all major-league baseball games in which a “big bang” occurs. To investigate this claim, we randomly selected one week of the 2006 major-league baseball season, which turned out to be July 31-August 6, 2006. Then we examined the 95games played that week to determine which had a big bang and which did not. Of the95 games in our sample, 47 contained a big bang. Use a two-sided alternative, state the null and alternative hypothesis (in symbols and in words) for testing Marilyn’s claim. 7. Determine the test statistic and p-value. 8. What conclusion would you draw concerning Marilyn’s conjecture using the…
A research group conducted an extensive survey of 2958 wage and salaried workers on issues ranging from relationships with their bosses to household chores. The data were gathered through hour-long telephone interviews with a nationally representative sample. In response to the question, "What does success mean to you?" 1467 responded, "Personal satisfaction from doing a good job." Let p be the population proportion of all wage and salaried workers who would respond the same way to the stated question. How large a sample is needed f we wish to be 95% confident that the sample percentage of those equating success with personal satisfaction is within 2.6% of the population percentage? (Hint: Use p≈ 0.50 as a preliminary estimate. Round your answer up to the nearest whole number.) USE SALT workers

According to previous studies, 12% of the U.S. population is left-handed. Not knowing this, a high school student claims that the percentage of left-handed people in the U.S. is 14%. The student is going to take a random sample of 1650 people in the U.S. to try to gather evidence to support the claim. Let p be the proportion of left-handed people in the sample. Answer the following. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) ✔ (a) Find the mean of p. P. 0 (b) Find the standard deviation of p. (c) Compute an approximation for P (P<0.14), which is the probability that there will be 14% or fewer left-handed people in the sample. Round your answer to four decimal places. X
Random samples of students at 107 four-year colleges were interviewed several times since 1998. Of the students who reported drinking alcohol, the percentage who reported bingeing at least three times within the past two weeks was 41.1% of 336 students in 1998 and 21.6% of 843 students in 2004. a. Estimate the difference between the proportions in 2004 and 1998, and interpret. b. Find the standard error for this difference. Interpret it. c. Define the two relevant population parameters to compare in the context of this exercise. d. Construct and interpret a 90% confidence interval to estimate the true difference. e. State the assumptions for the confidence interval in part d to be valid. ... A. The number of students in the population in 2004 who reported drinking alcohol that binged at least three times within the past two weeks. B. The proportion of the student population in 1998 who reported drinking alcohol that binged at least three times within the past two weeks. C. The number…
