An anger-management course claims that, after completing its seminar, participants will lose their tempers less often. Always a skeptic, you decide to test this claim. A random sample of 12 seminar participants is chosen, and these participants are asked to record the number of times that they lost their tempers in the two weeks prior to the course. After the course is over, the same participants are asked to record the number of times that they lost their tempers in the next two weeks. The following table lists the results of the survey. Using these data, test the claim at the 0.01 level of significance assuming that the population distribution of the paired differences is approximately normal. Let participants before completing the anger-management course be Population 1 and let participants after completing the anger- management course be Population 2.

Quit smoking: A recent study reported that in a sample of 234 European-American HIV-positive smokers, 105 of them had used a nicotine patch to try to quit smoking, and in a sample of 81 Hispanic-American HIV-positive smokers, 25 had used a nicotine patch. Can you conclude that the proportion of patch users is greater among European-Americans? Let p₁ denote the proportion of European-Americans who used the patch. Use the a=0.01 level of significance. Part 1 of 4 (a) State the appropriate null and alternate hypotheses. Ho: P₁ (Choose one) ▼ P₂ H₁: P₁ (Choose one) P2 This is a (Choose one) test. Part 2 of 4 (b) Find the P-value.

You gather data from two local churches about the average offering (a monetary donation to the church)that is collected at a weekly service. You want to see whether the average offering given at one churchis the same as the average offering at another church. The number of people who attend Church 1 is201, and the average amount offered is $12.50. The number of people who attend Church 2 is 350, andthe average amount offered is $11.87. The sample standard deviations for Church 1 and Church 2 are$3.15 and $4.57, respectively. (a) What is the hypothesis you want to test? (b) Calculate the test statistic and test your hypothesis at the 95 and 99 percent confidence levels. (c) Pretend that the sample means and standard deviations remain the same, but that the numberof people sampled at Church 2 was 201 instead of 350. Does your test-statistic change? Does the critical value change?
Use the random numbers. Thank you.
In a random sample of seven people, the mean driving distance to work was 22.5 miles and the standard deviation was 5.9 miles. Assume the population is normally distributed and use the t-distribution to find the margin of error and construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean u. Interpret the results. Identify the margin of error. (Round to one decimal place as needed.) Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean. (Round to one decimal place as needed.) Interpret the results. Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer box to complete your choice. (Type an integer or a decimal. Do not round.) O A. With % confidence, it can be said that most driving distances to work (in miles) in the population are between the interval's endpoints. O B. It can be said that % of the population has a driving distance to work (in miles) that is between the interval's endpoints. OC. With % confidence, it can be said that the population mean driving distance to work…
Carmen and Rosanna are two employees in an electronics store. The store manager has put an emphasis on increasing the number of applications for the store credit card. The manager randomly selected 24 weeks for each employee and recorded the number of completed applications for each week, which is provided in the samples below. Each employee completed 21 applications in one of the weeks selected. Use Excel to calculate each employee's z-score for completing 21 applications. Round your answers to two decimal places.
