Are American men or women more into online dating? Researchers from a pop culture magazine conducted a study to see if there is a difference in the proportion of men and women under 30 that use online dating sites. They collected independent random samples of 96 women and 88 men, ranging from 18-30 years old, from across the US. Of the women, 67 reported using online dating sites, while 62 of the men reported using online dating sites. Assume the subjects responded honestly. What would be the test statistic and P-value for performing a hypothesis test Ho : P1 = P2 vs. HA : P1 + P2 ? Select one: O a. z =-0.098 ; P-value = 0.9204 O b. z =-1.13 ; P-value = 0.1292 O c. z =-3.77 ; P-value is approximately 0 O d. z =-0.098 ; P-value = 0.4602 O e. z =-1.13 ; P-value = 0.2594 Clear my choice

The College Board provided comparisons of Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) scores based on the highest level of education attained by the test taker's parents. A research hypothesis was that students whose parents had attained a higher level of education would on average score higher on the SAT. The overall mean SAT math score was 514. SAT math scores for independent samples of students follow. The first sample shows the SAT math test scores for students whose parents are college graduates with a bachelor's degree.

Health insurer benefits vary by the size of the company. The sample data below show the number of companies providing health insurance for small, medium, and large companies. For the purpose of this study, small companies are companies that have fewer than 100 employees. Medium-sized companies have 100 to 999 employees, and largevcompanies have 1000 or more employees. The questionnaire sent to 225 employees asked whether or not the employee had health insurance and then asked the employee to indicate the size of the company. Health Insurance Size of company Yes No Total Small. 35 15 50 Medium 67 8 75 Large 87 13 100 A. Conduct a test of independence to determine whether health insurance coverage is independent of the size of the company. What is the p-value? Compute the value of the x2 test statistic (to 2 decimal)

Bank of America's Consumer Spending Survey collected data on annual credit card charges in seven different categories of expenditures: transportation, groceries, dining out, household expenses, home furnishings, apparel, and entertainment. Using data from a sample of 42 credit card accounts, assume that each account was used to identify the annual credit card charges for groceries (population 1) and the annual credit card charges for dining out (population 2). Using the difference data, the sample mean difference was d = $850, and the sample standard deviation was Sd = $1,123. a. Formulate the null and alternative hypotheses to test for no difference between the population mean credit card charges for groceries and the population mean credit card charges for dining out.

A J.D. Power and Associates vehicle quality survey asked new owners a variety of questions about their recently purchased automobile. One question asked for the owner's rating of the vehicle using categorical responses of average, outstanding, and exceptional. Another question asked for the owner's education level with the categorical responses some high school, high school graduate, some college, and college graduate. Assume the sample data below are for 500 owners who had recently purchased an automobile. Education Quality Rating Some HS HS Grad Some College College Grad Average 30 30 20 60 Outstanding 50 50 50 90 Exceptional 20 20 30 50 a. Use a 0.05 level of significance and a test of independence to determine if a new owner's vehicle quality rating is independent of the owner's education.

490 undergraduate students at a state university in the southwestern region of the United States were surveyed. Each student in the sample was classified according to class standing (freshman, sophomore, junior, or senior) and body are category (body piercings only, tattoos only, both tattoos and body piercings, no body art). Use the data in the accompanying table to determine if there is an association between class standing and body art category. Assume that it is reasonable to regard the sample as representative of the students at this university. Use α = 0.01. 1. What type of question is this-estimation or hypothesis?2. What type of study is this sample data or experiment data?3. What type of data is this? Univariate or bivariate? Categorical or Numerical?4. How many samples or treatments?
A restaurant chain would like to measure the proportion of customers who are generally satisfied with the service provided by its staff. At the end of the meal, as the check is delivered to the table, the server asks those at the table to rate their satisfaction with the service provided as "Very Satisfied," "Satisfied," or "Not Satisfied." During a one- week period, 147 customers were surveyed and 135 (93%) reported they were either Satisfied or Very Satisfied. How might the results be biased in obtaining an estimate of all customers who are satisfied with service? O Because of response bias, the survey results may overestimate the true proportion of satisfied customers. O Because of response bias, the survey results may underestimate the true proportion of satisfied customers. O Because of voluntary response bias, the survey results may overestimate the true proportion of satisfied customers. O Because customers were surveyed overa one-week period, the results should provide an…
