Recall that Benford's Law clalms that numbers chosen from very large data files tend to have "1" as the first nonzero digit disproportionately often. In fact, research has shown that if you randomly draw a number from a v leading digit is about 0.301. Now suppose you are the auditor for a very large corporation. The revenue file contains millons of numbers in a large computer data bank. You draw a random sample of n = 229 numbers from this file and r 85 have a first nonzero digit of 1. Let p represent the population proportion of all numbers in the computer file that have a leading digit of 1. large data file, the probability of getting a number with "1" as the () Test the dalm that p is more than 0.301.

A snack food manufacturer estimates that the variance of the number of grams of carbohydrates in servings of its tortilla chips is 1.34. A dietician is asked to test this claim and finds that a random sample of 16 servings has a variance of 1.22. At α=0.05, is there enough evidence to reject the manufacturer's claim? Assume the population is normally distributed. Complete parts (a) through (e) below.

Contaminated water: Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBS) are a group of synthetic oil-like chemicals that were at one time widely used as insulation in electrical equipment and were discharged into rivers. They were discovered to be a health hazard and were banned in the 1970s. Assume that water samples are being drawn from a river in order to estimate the PCB concentration. Suppose that a random sample of size 80 has a sample mean of 1.90 parts per billion (ppb). Assume the population standard deviation is o = 0.26 ppb. Part 1 of 3 ▬▬ esc (a) Construct a 98% confidence interval for the PCB concentration. Use tables or technology. Round your answers to at least two decimal places.
