An agency reports that 11.4% of workers in a particular country belonged to unions. Suppose a sample of 400 workers is collected to determine whether union efforts to organize have increased union membersi (a) Formulate the hypotheses that can be used to determine whether union membership has increased.

A student wants to see if the number of times a book has been checked out of the library in the past year and the number of pages in the book are related. She guesses that the number of times a book has been checked out of the library in the past year will be a predictor of the number of pages it has. She randomly sampled 15 books from the library, test her claim at a 0.05 level of significance. number of times checked out number of pages 13 223 45 350 49 377 30 371 3 343 7 280 17 218 7 265 20 382 23 287 1 313 30 388 20 358 2 311 40 421 The correlation coefficient: r= (round to 3 decimal places) The equation y=a+bx is: (round to 3 decimal places) y=+ x The hypotheses are: H0:ρ=0H0:ρ=0 (no linear relationship)HA:ρ≠0HA:ρ≠0 (linear relationship) (claim) Since αα is 0.05 the critical value is -2.16 and 2.16 The test value is: (round to 3 decimal places) The p-value is: (round to 3 decimal places) The decision is to reject H0H0 do not reject…
A company claims that at least 94% of equipment supplied to a manufacturer is within specifications. A test of a sample of 200 pieces of equipment showed that 27 of them were faulty. Test their claim at the 5% significance level?
One study claimed that 91%91% of college students identify themselves as procrastinators. A professor believes that the claim regarding college students is too high. The professor conducts a simple random sample of 118118 college students and finds that 102102 of them identify themselves as procrastinators. Does this evidence support the professor’s claim that fewer than 91%91% of college students are procrastinators? Use a 0.010.01 level of significance.Step 2 of 3: Compute the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to two decimal places
The U.S. Energy Information Administration claimed that U.S. residential customers used an average of 10,476 kilowatt hours (kWh) of electricity this year. A local power company believes that residents in their area use more electricity on average than EIA's reported average. To test their claim, the company chooses a random sample of 153 of their customers and calculates that these customers used an average of 10,767 kWh of electricity last year. Assuming that the population standard deviation is 2478 kWh, is there sufficient evidence to support the power company's claim at the 0.05 level of significance? Step 3 of 3: Draw a conclusion and interpret the decision.
The U.S. Energy Information Administration claimed that U.S. residential customers used an average of 10,069 kilowatt hours (kWh) of electricity this year. A local power company believes that residents in their area use more electricity on average than EIA's reported average. To test their claim, the company chooses a random sample of 171 of their customers and calculates that these customers used an average of 10,461 kWh of electricity last year. Assuming that the population standard deviation is 2973 kWh, is there sufficient evidence to support the power company's claim at the 0.01 level of significance?

6.41 Open source textbook: A professor using an open source introductory statistics book predicts that 60% of the students will purchase a hard copy of the book, 25% will print it out from the web, and 15% will read it online. At the end of the semester he asks his students to complete a survey where they indicate what format of the book they used. Of the 126 students, 71 said they bought a hard copy of the book, 30 said they printed it out from the web, and 25 said they read it online.(a) State the hypotheses for testing if the professor's predictions were inaccurate. Ho: pBuy = .6, pPrint=.25, pOnline=.15Ha: at least one of the claimed probabilities is different Ho: pBuy = .6, pPrint=.25, pOnline=.15Ha: at least one of the claimed probabilities is zero Ho: pBuy = .6, pPrint=.25, pOnline=.15Ha: all of the claimed probabilities are different Correct (b) How many students did the professor expect to buy the book, print the book, and read the book exclusively online?

One study claimed that 86%86% of college students identify themselves as procrastinators. A professor believes that the claim regarding college students is too high. The professor conducts a simple random sample of 134134 college students and finds that 109109 of them identify themselves as procrastinators. Does this evidence support the professor’s claim that fewer than 86%86% of college students are procrastinators? Use a 0.050.05 level of significance. Step 2 of 3 : Compute the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to two decimal places.
