Applied Medical (a company that makes medical devices) wants to lower the number of days that their employees are taking off by starting a new incentive program. A random sample of employees working at Applied Medical is taken and the number of days they took off in the previous year was recorded. Then, the incentive program was implemented. The number of days absent in one year after the incentive program was implemented was also recorded. The data is given below.

A friend of yours tells you that they heard that 65% of all college athletes end up losing a finger or toe in their college athletic career. You're highly skeptical of this, but your not sure if that percentage is an over exageration or an under exageration. You survey 101 former student-athletes and find that 60 of them lost a digit during their college athletic career. Is this enough evidence to conclude that the true percentage of student-athletes that lose a digit during their collegiate career is really different from 65%?
A new weight-reducing technique, consisting of a liquid protein diet, is currently undergoing tests by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) before its introduction into the market. The weights of a random sample of five people are recorded before they are introduced to the liquid protein diet. The five individuals are then instructed to follow the liquid protein diet for 3. weeks. At the end of this period, their weights (in pounds) are again recorded. The results are listed in the table. Person Weight Before Diet Weight After Diet 1 165 160 2 210 207 3 203 202 4 216 208 220 217 5 (1) Is there a significant difference between the means of the weights before and after the diet?

Exit polling is a popular technique used to determine the outcome of an election prior to results being tallied. Suppose a referendum to increase funding for education is on the ballot in a large town (voting population over 100,000). An exit poll of 200 voters finds that 98 voted for the referendum. How likely are the results of your sample if the population proportion of voters in the town in favor of the referendum is 0.51? Based on your result, comment on the dangers of using exit polling to call elections. How likely are the results of your sample if the population proportion of voters in the town in favor of the referendum is 0.51? The probability that fewer than 98 people voted for the referendum is. (Round to four decimal places as needed.)

You decide to invest in stock in a particular type of company and set the guideline that you will only buy stock in companies that are ranked in the 80th percentile or above in terms of dividends paid in the previous year. You are looking at a company that ranked 7 out of 450 companies that paid dividends in 2019. a.Will this company qualifies for your portfolio? b.If you had the data on the total dividends paid by each of the 450 companies, which measure of average would be the most meaningful – mean, median, midrange, or mode?

Sleep apnea is a condition in which the sufferers stop breathing momentarily while they are asleep. This condition results in lack of sleep and extreme fatigue during waking hours. A current estimate is that 16.3 million out of the 312.7 million Americans suffer from sleep apnea, or approximately 5.2%. A safety commission is concerned about the percentage of commercial truck drivers who suffer from sleep apnea. They do not have any reason to believe that it would be higher or lower than the population’s percentage. To test the claim that the percentage of commercial truck drivers who suffer from sleep apnea is not 5.2%, a simple random sample of 380380 commercial truck drivers is examined by a medical expert, who concludes that 29 suffer from sleep apnea. Does this evidence support the claim that the percentage of commercial truck drivers who suffer from sleep apnea is not 5.2%? Use a 0.01 level of significance. Step 1 of 3 : State the null and alternative hypotheses for the test.…
