- when you have means from two different samples, it is best to conduct a what test?A coach is interested in how many slam dunks the average college freshman at his university can do. Ten volunteers from the senior class step forward. After observing their performance, the coach concluded that college seniors can do an average of 10 slam dunks in a row without missing. what is the sample? what is the population?You may need to use the appropriate technology to answer this question. A magazine subscriber study asked, "In the past 12 months, when traveling for business, what type of airline ticket did you purchase most often?" A second question asked if the type of airline ticket purchased most often was for domestic or international travel. Sample data obtained are shown in the following table. Type of Ticket Type of Flight Domestic International First class 29 22 Business class 94 120 Economy class 519 136 Using a 0.05 level of significance, is the type of ticket purchased independent of the type of flight? Find the value of the test statistic. (Round your answer to three decimal places.) Find the p-value. (Round your answer to four decimal places.) p-value =
- USA Today posted this question on the electronic version of its newspaper: “Should guys pay for their first date?” Of the 1148 subjects who decided to respond, 85% of them said “yes.” (a) Determine whether the study is an experimental or an observational study.Approximately 8% of males experience red-green color blindness.

- Sample surveys on sensitive issues can give different results depending on how the question is asked. A University of Wisconsin study randomly divided 2400 respondents into three groups. All participants were asked if they had ever used cocaine. One group of 800 was interviewed by phone; 21% said they had used cocaine. Another 800 people were asked the question in a one-on-one personal interview; 25% said “Yes.” The remaining 800 were allowed to make an anonymous written response; 28% said “Yes.”101. Was this an experiment or an observational study? Justify your answer.2. Make a two-way table of responses about cocaine use by how the survey was administered.3. Are the differences between the three groups statistically significant? Give appropriate evidence to support your answerAccording to YCharts in 2018, the unemployment rate for 15- to 24-year-olds in British Columbia was reported to be 9.4% for July, 2018 specifically. Suppose that this report was based on a random sample of four hundred 15- to 24-year-olds. A political campaign manager wants to know if the sample results can be used to conclude that the unemployment rate for 15- to 24-year-old British Columbians is significantly higher than the unemployment rate for all adults in British Columbia based on a significance level α=0.05 α=0.05. According to the Statistics Canada, the unemployment rate for all adults in British Columbia was 5.0% in July 2018. State the hypotheses. Calculate the test statistic. Use Excel to find the p-value. Hint: Use NORM.DIST. What is your hypothesis test decision? What is your conclusion in the context of the application?A government official is in charge of allocating social programs throughout the city of Vancouver. He will decide where these social outreach programs should be located based on the percentage of residents living below the poverty line in each region of the city. He takes a simple random sample of 130 people living in Gastown and finds that 25 have an annual income that is below the poverty line.
