A local newspaper surveyed 300 customers randomly. 73 percent said they were very satisfied. The test statistic is (Round answer to two decimal places. Do not write 0.12 as .12.)
Rhino viruses typically cause common colds. In a test of the effectiveness of echinacea, 33 of the 38 subjects treated with echinacea developed rhinovirus infections. In a placebo group, 94 of the 111 subjects developed rhinovirus infections. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that echinacea has an effect on rhinovirus infections. Complete parts (a) through (c) below. a. Test the claim using a hypothesis test. Consider the first sample to be the sample of subjects treated with echinacea and the second sample to be the sample of subjects treated with a placebo.

Many college and university students obtain summer jobs. A professor wanted to determine whether students in different degree programs earn different amounts. She randomly selected five students in each of the 4 university programs and asked them to report what they earned the previous summer (in thousands of dollars). The following partially filled-in ANOVA table was obtained. Fill-in the rest of the table. (Use exact values for df and round all other numbers to 2 decimal places, if needed.)

According to an expert for the automotive industry, 68% of Americans know how to drive a manual transmission vehicle. Suppose 220 Americans are sampled. (Give results accurate to at least 4 decimal places.) a. Of the 220 people sampled, 160 respond that they know how to drive a manual transmission vehicle. What is the sample statistic p? p = b. Under the assumption that the industry expert's claim that 68% of Americans know how to drive a manual transmission vehicle 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 industry expert's claim that 68% of Americans know how to drive a manual transmission vehicle is valid, what is the probability that the survey in part (a) would result in a p that is between 66% and 71%?
