A small university was looking to recruit students for their golf program during Freshman orientation. Each organization would be allotted 10 minutes to give a small presentation about their program. The golf coach wants to discuss the programs golf over the past five years during his presentation. To do this, he plans to take samples of the scores from both practice rounds and games. He has recruited students from Statistics class to help him determine which statistic would be best to use to display the scores. The students have narrowed it down to four different statistics. For each statistic, the coach has taken 100 random samples of golf scores over the past five years and the statistic is calculated for each sample. Suppose the value for the population parameter he is trying to estimate is a score of 75. ALL GRAPHS ARE IN THE ATTACHED PICTURE!! THANK YOU!! a) For each graph above, identify whether the statistic appears to have a biased or unbiased estimator of the population…
In a study researching how donating to charity can affect a person's happiness, 96 participants were given $5 a day for one week. Each participant was randomly assigned to one of two groups. Those assigned to the first group were asked to spend the money on themselves, and those assigned to the second group were asked to donate the money to charity. At the end of the week, all of the participants were asked to rate their overall level of happiness on a scale from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating greater levels of happiness. Which of the following are the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses to test whether the sample data provide convincing statistical evidence that donating to charity results in greater happiness than spending on oneself, on average? Ho self- "charity = 0 (A) Ha self charity >0 Ho self Mcharity=0 (B) Ha self charity 0 (E) Ha self = Mcharity <0
The council leaders of a small town would like to determine the average number of people living in each household. To accomplish this, they send a questionnaire to each residence listed in the town address records, asking the head of the household to record the number of people living in the dwelling. They follow this up with visits to those households that have not responded to the questionnaire until the data collection process is complete. Which of the following is the best description of the method for data collection used by the council leaders? (A) A convenience sample (B) A simple random sample (C) A stratified random sample (D) A cluster random sample (E) A census
In the 2014-2015 academic year, many public universities in the United States raised tuition and fees due to a decrease in state subsidies. The change in the cost of tuition, a shared dormitory room, and the most popular meal plan from the 2014- 2015 academic year for a sample of 10 public universities were as follows: $1589, $593, $1223, $869, $423, $1720, $708, $1425, $922 and $308. Run the descriptive statistic measures for this data set and interpret the results for the following concepts:
The Women’s Institutional Studies group at a Midwestern university wanted to compare the percentages of female faculty members in the various units on campus in Spring 2004. Of particular interest were the percentages of female faculty in the College of Education and in the College of Business . In a sample of 80 College of Education faculties, there were 36 females, and in a sample of 70 College of Business faculties, there were 15 females. Based upon this sample information, which of the following is the 98% confidence interval for the difference in the actual percentages of female faculty between College of Education and College of Business ? a. (0.075, 0.405). b. (0.123, 0.357). c. (-0.012, 0.252). d. (0.058, 0.422). e. (0.101, 0.379).
A gym wishes to evaluate the effectiveness of its programs. When a new member joins the gym, they meet with a trainer who designs a recommended routine based on the member’s current fitness and their goals. The recommended routines can be classified into high, medium, or low effort. Historically, 68% of the new members get a high effort routine, 21% get a medium effort routine, and the rest get a low effort routine. After the first six months as members, the gym surveys the members’ adherence to the recommended routine. The gym classifies a member’s performance as optimal if they follow the recommended routine for the six months, or as inferior otherwise. According to the historical results of the survey, 84% of the members with a low effort routine, 22% of the members with a medium effort routine, and 69% of the members with a high effort routine report optimal performance. After the first six months of joining the gym, a member can obtain different results: they can either…

Do people feel hungrier after sampling a healthy snack? Researchers randomly assign volunteers into one of three groups. The people in the first group were asked to taste a snack that was billed as a new health bar containing high levels of protein, vitamins, and fiber. The people in the second group were asked to taste the same snack but there told it was a tasty chocolate bar with a raspberry center. After tasting the snack, participants were asked to rate their hunger on a scale from 1 (not at all hungy) to 7 (very hungry). The people in the third group were asked to rate their hunger but were not given a snack. Healthy Tasty No Snack 8 3 3 7 1 3 7 3 5 4 2 6 5 6 5 a. Perform a complete one-way ANOVA hypothesis test.

A local company is interested in supporting environmentally friendly initiatives such as carpooling among employees. The company surveyed all of the 200 employees at the downtown offices. Employees responded as to whether or not they own a car and to the location of the home where they live. The results are shown in the table below. If the person owns a car, he or she is more likely to live elsewhere in the city than to live in the downtown area in the city. If the person does not own a car, he or she is more likely to live outside the city than to live in the city (downtown area or elsewhere). The person is more likely to own a car if he or she lives in the city (downtown area or elsewhere) than if he or she lives outside the city. The person is more likely to live in the downtown area in the city than elsewhere in the city. The person is more likely to own a car than not to own a car.
