An education researcher claims that 60% of college students work year-round. In a random sample of 200 college students, 120 say they work year-round. At a = 0.10, is there enough evidence to reject the researcher's claim? Complete parts (a) through (e) below.

Before the semester began, Professor Keithley predicted that 15% of hisphilosophy students would receive an A, 30% a B, 40% a C, 10% a D, and 5%an F. At the end of the semester, 14 of Professor Keithley’s philosophy studentsearned an A, 19 a B, 12 a C, 5 a D, and 2 an F.Use the Chi-Square test and a 0.05 level of significance to determine if ProfessorKeithley’s predicted percentages were accurate. (State your null and alternativehypothesis, find the critical values and test statistics, make a decision, and writea conclusion based on your results).
A statistics professor would like to build a model relating student scores on the first test to the scores on the second test. The test scores from a random sample of 21 students who have previously taken the course are given in the table.

Researchers from the Department of Education are always looking for ways to improve methods of instruction to undergraduate students. The aim is to know whether gender (male/female/non-binary) is associated with preferred learning medium (online/in person/hybrid). The data is represented as below. Find the appropriate chi-square statistic to the nearest hundredth. Online In Person Hybrid Male 36 17 4 Female 23 49 8 Non Binary 6 14 16
A sample of 12 male and 12 female students were surveyed and the amount spent on food last week were recorded. The results are summarized in the table below.

In a science fair project. Emily conducted an experiment in which she tested professional touch therapists to see if they could sense her energy field. She flipped a coin to select either her right hand or her left hand, and then she asked the therapists to identify the selected hand by placing their hand just under Emily's hand without seeing it and without touching it. Among 329 trials, the touch therapists were correct 157 times. Complete parts (a) through (d) a. Given that Emilv used a coin toss to select either her right hand or her left hand. what proportion of correct responses would be expected if the touch therapists made random guesses? (Type an integer or a decimal. Do not round.) b. Using Emily's sample results, what is the best point estimate of the therapists' success rate? (Round to three decimal places as needed.)
The researchers from a study interviewed two random samples, one in 2015 and one in 2018. Both samples were asked "Have you read a print book in the last year?"

A special education teacher did research on whether or not there is a relationship between the number of students in his class and the number incidents of “acting out” behaviors exhibited by the autistic students in the classroom. He collects data for a year and aggregates them by month. He obtained the statistics below, r= -.863 R2=.74 b= -1.212294 a= 131.176598 10.) How does the presence of more students affect the incidents in the class? a) as students are added the incidences increase b) as students are added the incidences decrease c) the number of students does not affect acting out d) the number of students caused more incidents How much of the variability of acting out is explained by the number of students in the class?___________
