3. The article "Doctors Cite Burnout in Mistakes" (San Luis Obispo Tribune, March 5, 2002) reported that many doctors who are completing their residency have financial struggles that could interfere with training. In a sample of115 residents, 38 reported that they worked moonlighting jobs and 22 reported a credit card debt of more than $3000. Suppose that it is reasonable to consider this sample of 115 as a random sample of all medical residents in the United States. a) Construct and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of U.S. medical residents who work moonlighting jobs. b) Construct and interpret a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of U.S. medical residents who have a credit card debt of more than $3000. c) Give two reasons why the confidence interval in Part (a) is wider than the confidence interval in Part (b).
I. There are 8 different fruity flavors in Brach's Sweet and Sour Variety Mix. The manufacturer says that a package contains about 280 pieces. You bought a bag to give out for Halloween. a) Your favorite flavor is LemonHead – how many LemonHead pieces do you expect to find in this bag? b) If it turns out that there 40 LemonHeads in the bag do you think the difference between what occurred and what you would expect by chance is statistically significant? Explain. c) If it turns out that there are 70 LemonHeads in the bag do you the difference between what occurred and what you would expect by chance is statistically significant? Explain.

40. Politics and sex One month before the election, a poll of 630 randomly selected voters showed 54% planning to vote for a certain candidate. A week later, it became known that he had had an extramarital affair, and a new poll showed only 51% of 1010 voters supporting him. Do these results indicate a decrease in voter support for his candidacy? a) Test an appropriate hypothesis and state your conclusion. b) If you concluded there was a difference, estimate that differ- ence with a confidence interval and interpret your interval in context.

9. In order to investigate a rumor that there is a greater than expected number of girls among the children of chemists, Science magazine conducted an informal survey of eight chemistry departments. A secretary in the chemistry department at Indiana University, Bloomington, thought there might be something to this rumor and made sure that every one of the 34 faculty members in her department who have children responded to the Science survey. Altogether these Indiana chemists have 53 (56%) girls and 41 (44%) boys. Is this evidence that chemists produce more girl babies than expected? What kind of data would you prefer before drawing this type of conclusion? Explain how your idea would make the evidence produced more convincing.
