A survey asks 1500 workers, "Has the economy forced you to reduce the amount of vacation you plan to take this year?" Fifty-one percent of those surveyed say they are reducing the amount of vacation. Twenty workers participating in the survey are randoml selected. The random variable represents the number of workers who are reducing the amount of vacation. Decide whether the experiment is a binomial experiment. If it is, identify a success, specify the values of n, p, and q, and list the possible values of the random variable x. Is the experiment a binomial experiment? O No Yes What is a success in this experiment? O Selecting a worker who is reducing the amount of vacation O Selecting a worker who is not reducing the amount of vacation This is not a binomial experiment. Specify the value of n. Select the correct choice below and fill in any answer boxes in your choice. O A. n= O B. This is not a binomial experiment. Specify the value of p. Select the correct choice below and fill in any answer boxes in your choice. O A. p= (Type an integer or a decimal.) O B. This is not a binomial experiment.

You are doing research on balance and fitness. To complete this research you will need a watch with a second hand. Identify a random sample of n = 12 men and n = 8 women. You must answer this question: How do you establish that this sample is truly random? Have each subject perform the following task: Have the subjects stand with their hands at their side, raise one knee, cross their ankle over the other knee, squat and bring their hands palms together in front of their chest. Time the subject until they put their foot back down on the floor. b) Ask the following questions: i) How many days per week do they exercise? ii) What is their favorite exercise? You will analyze your data and compute the following statistics for each group: 1) The Mean and standard deviation of the number of seconds the subject stayed balanced 2) The Median number of days per week exercised 3) The Mode of the favorite exercise 4) The 90% confidence interval of the mean Construct a complete…

Perform a statistical analysis / test of hypothesis Suppose a researcher wants to see whether teaching students to read using a computer game gives better results than teaching with a tried-and-true phonics method. She randomly selects 20 students and puts them into 10 pairs according to their reading readiness level, age, IQ, and so on. She randomly selects one student from each pair to learn to read via the computer game, and the other learns to read using the phonics method. At the end of the study, each student takes the same reading test. The data are shown in the following table. Student Pair 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Reading Score under Computer Method 85 80 95 87 78 82 57 69 73 99 Reading Score under phonics method 80 80 88 90 72 79 50 73 78 95 Test whether there is a significant difference between the computer method and the phonics method. If there is a significant difference, which particular method…
