CDC's National Asthma Control Program was created in 1999 to help the millions of people with asthma in the United States control their disease. According to a report released in 2010, 35.2% of US adults have intermittent asthma (meaning their asthma is well-controlled without long-term medication). In order to update the report, the CDC sampled 2026 adults and found that 719 of those sampled had intermittent asthma.

Hurricane Andrew swept through southern Florida causing billions of dollars of damage. Because of the severity of the storm and the type of residential construction used in this semitropical area, there was some concern that the average claim size would be greater than the historical average hurricane claim of $26,000. Several insurance companies collaborated in a data gathering experiment. They randomly selected 24 homes and sent adjusters to settle the claims. In the sample of 24 homes, the average claim was $28,500 with a population standard deviation of $5200. Is there sufficient evidence at a 0.02 significance level to support the claim that the home damage is greater than the historical average? Assume the population of insurance claims is approximately normally distributed. Step 1 of 3: State the null and alternative hypotheses for the test. Fill in the blank below.

A company surveyed adult Americans about their consumer debt. The article reported that 48% of millennials (those born between 1980 and 1996) and 62% of Gen Xers (those born between 1965 and 1971) did not pay off their credit cards each month, and therefore carried a balance from month to month. Suppose that these percentages were based on representative samples of 450 millennials and 300 Gen Xers. Is there convincing evidence that the proportion of Gen Xers who do not pay off their credit cards each month is greater than this proportion for millennials? Test the appropriate hypotheses using a significance level of 0.05. (Let p1 be the proportion of Gen Xers who do not pay off their credit cards each month, and p2 be the proportion of Millennials who do not pay off their credit cards each month.) State the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses. H0: p1 − p2 = 0 Ha: p1 − p2 > 0 H0: p1 − p2 = 0 Ha: p1 − p2 < 0 H0: p1 − p2 > 0 Ha: p1 − p2 < 0 H0: p1 − p2 <…

Each year, researchers at the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) administer the American Time Use Survey (ATUS). Researchers estimate the average amount of time Americans spend on daily activities, such as working, housework, and leisure activities. In particular, one activity that is of interest is the average amount of time Americans spend watching television each day A researcher complied a random sample of 14 Americans and asked each person how much time they spent watching television each day.

The General Social Survey is an annual survey given to a random selection of about 1500 adults in the United States. Among the many questions asked are "What is the highest level of education you've completed?" and "If you're employed full-time, how many hours do you spend working at your job during a typical week?" We're interested in examining whether or not there are differences in the typical work week length based on the level of education of the worker. We perform a one-way, independent-samples ANOVA test, with the "groups" in the ANOVA being categories of highest educational degree of the worker ("less than high school," "bachelor's degree," etc.) and the variable being the number of hours written down by the worker in answering the survey question. (a) Suppose that the results of our ANOVA are given in the ANOVA table below. Complete the missing cell of the ANOVA table (rounding your answer to two decimal places).

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 9.7 million out of the 312.7million Americans suffer from sleep apnea, or approximately 3.1%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 3.1%, a simple random sample of 406commercial truck drivers is examined by a medical expert, who concludes that 55 suffer from sleep apnea. Does this evidence support the claim that the percentage of commercial truck drivers who suffer from sleep apnea is not 3.1%?Use a 0.05 level of significance. Step 3 of 3 : Draw a conclusion and interpret the decision.

A nonprofit company concerned with the school dropout rates has designed a tutoring program aimed at students between 16 to 18 years old. A national center for educational statistics reported that the high school dropout rate for the year 2000 was 10.9%.One school district, who adopted the use of the nonprofit's tutoring program and whose dropout rate has always been very close to the national average, reported in 2004 that 158 of their 1769 students dropped out. Is their experience evidence that the tutoring program has been effective? Determine the hypotheses for this test. Choose the correct answer below A. H0: p=0.109 HA: p≠0.109 B.

Dental health issues remain a barrier to attendance, as evidenced by a 2010 Los Angeles School Attendance Review Board (SARB), which lists dental health, along with homelessness, in the top barriers to attendance. The Dental Hygiene program at West Los Angeles College collects data on its clinic patients to help instructors and students better understand their patient population. From July 2017 to December 2019 the program treated 3421 patients. Students were asked to analyze a random sample of 127 patients from that time period and found that 36.4% had severe periodontal disease (infections and inflammation of the gums and bone that surround and support the teeth).
