A psychologist would like to know whether the season (autumn, winter, spring, and summer) has any consistent effect on people's sexual activity. In the middle of each season, a psychologist selects a random sample of 22 students. Each individual is given a sexual activity questionnaire. A one-factor ANOVA was used to analyze these data. Complete the following ANOVA summary table (a = 0.02). Round your answers to three decimal places, if necessary. Source Between Within Total SS 867.72 df MS F 2.98 P-value
How much customers buy is a direct result of how much time they spend in the store. A study of average shopping times in a large national houseware store gave the following information (Source: Why We Buy: The Science of Shopping by P. Underhill). Women with female companion: 8.3 min.Women with male companion: 4.5 min. Suppose you want to set up a statistical test to challenge the claim that a woman with a female friend spends an average of 8.3 minutes shopping in such a store. (a) What would you use for the null and alternate hypotheses if you believe the average shopping time is less than 8.3 minutes? Ho: ? = 8.3; H1: ? ≠ 8.3Ho: ? < 8.3; H1: ? = 8.3 Ho: ? = 8.3; H1: ? < 8.3Ho: ? = 8.3; H1: ? > 8.3 Is this a right-tailed, left-tailed, or two-tailed test? right-tailedtwo-tailed left-tailed (b) What would you use for the null and alternate hypotheses if you believe the average shopping time is different from 8.3 minutes?

There are many ways to measure the reading ability of children. Research designed toimprove reading performance is dependent on good measures of the outcome. Onefrequently used test is the DRP, or Degree of Reading Power. A researcher suspects that themean score µ of all third- graders in Henrico County Schools is different from the nationalmean, which is 32. To test her suspicion, she administers the DRP to an SRS of 44 HenricoCounty third-grade students. The distribution of scores is summarized in the Minitab outputbelow: MEAN STDEV SEMEAN MIN Q1 MEDIAN Q3MAXDRP 35.09 11.19 1.69 14.00 26.00 35.00 44.0054.00 Construct a 90% confidence interval to estimate the mean DRP score in Henrico CountySchools.

According to a sociologist's research on U.S. residents' habits regarding religious faith, 38% of U.S. residents attend a religious service (any denomination) at least once per month. Suppose 310 U.S. residents are sampled. (Give results accurate to at least 4 decimal places.) a. Of the 310 people sampled, 132 respond that they attend a religious service at least once per month. What is the sample statistic p? p= 0.4258 b. Under the assumption that the sociologist's claim that 38% of U.S. residents attend a religious service at least once per month is valid, what is the probability that the survey in part (a) would result in a p that is at least as high as the one found? c. Under the assumption that the sociologist's claim that 38% of U.S. residents attend a religious service at least once per month is valid, what is the probability that the survey in part (a) would result in a p that is between 37% and 40%?
