A psychologist specializing in marriage counseling claims that, among all married couples, the proportion p for whom her communication program can prevent divorce is at least 79%. In a random sample of 235 married couples who completed her program, 182 of them stayed together. Based on this sample, can we reject the psychologist's claim at the 0.05 level of significance? Perform a one-tailed test. Then fill in the table below. Carry your intermediate computations to at least three decimal places and round your answers as specified in the table. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.)

Claim: Most adults would erase all of their personal information online if they could. A software firm survey of 569 randomly selected adults showed that 56% of them would erase all of their personal information online if they could. Find the value of the test statistic. ..... The value of the test statistic is (Round to two decimal places as needed.)
A researcher believes that 52.5% of people who grew up as the only child have an IQ score over 100. However, unknown to the researcher, this figure is actually 50%, which is the same as in the general population.To attempt to find evidence for the claim, the researcher is going to take a random sample of 400 people who grew up as the only child. Let p be the proportion of people in the sample with an IQ score above 100. Answer the following: a) Find the mean of p: b)Find the standard deviation of p: c) Compute an approximation for P(p ≥ 0.525), which is the probability that there will be 52.5% or more people with IQ scores over 100 in the sample. Round your answer to four decimal places.
About 3% of the population has a particular genetic mutation. 700 people are randomly selected.Find the mean for the number of people with the genetic mutation in such groups of 700. (Round to 2 decimal places if possible.)
Sleep apnea is a condition in which the sufferers stop breathing momentarily while they are asleep. This condition results in lack of sleep and extreme fatigue during waking hours. A current estimate is that 9.7 million out of the 312.7million Americans suffer from sleep apnea, or approximately 3.1%A safety commission is concerned about the percentage of commercial truck drivers who suffer from sleep apnea. They do not have any reason to believe that it would be higher or lower than the population’s percentage. To test the claim that the percentage of commercial truck drivers who suffer from sleep apnea is not 3.1%, a simple random sample of 406commercial truck drivers is examined by a medical expert, who concludes that 55 suffer from sleep apnea. Does this evidence support the claim that the percentage of commercial truck drivers who suffer from sleep apnea is not 3.1%?Use a 0.05 level of significance. Step 3 of 3 : Draw a conclusion and interpret the decision.
In a 2014 study, Michael Smith arranged to be stung by bees repeatedly on 25 locations over 38 days to record the relative pain experienced by each sting in each body area. A scale pain ratings of 1-10 were used with stings to the forearm defined to be a 5. What is the population of this study?
About 7% of the population has a particular genetic mutation. 100 people are randomly selected. Find the mean for the number of people with the genetic mutation in such groups of 100. (Round to 2 decimal places if possible.)
The researchers from a study interviewed two random samples, one in 2015 and one in 2018. Both samples were asked "Have you read a print book in the last year?"

A random sample of 300 physicians shows that there are 50 of them who make at least $200,000 a year. What is the test statistic if we want to test that the true proportion of physicians in the population who make at least $200,000 a year is less than 0.20?
A Verizon researcher compared the number of text messages sent by a sample of teenage boys to the population mean for all Verizon users. She found no evidence to conclude that there was a difference. Unfortunately, her conclusion was in error. (a) What type of error did she make? (b) What conclusion should she have reached?
In a study assessing helping behavior among college students on their way to class, you recruit 10 students. You tell some participants that they are late for class and need to rush. You tell others they are right on time. Finally, you tell others they have lots of time before class. As they walk across campus, they come across a man (actually a confederate) who appears to need help. You measure the extent to which the participant noticed that the confederate needed help (1 = did not notice to 9 = really noticed). Which hypothesis test would you calculate? F test Independent sample t-test z test Dependent sample t-test
