In a food preference experiment, 80 lizards were given the opportunity to choose to eat one of three different species of insects. The results showed that 33 of the lizards chose species A, 12 chose species B, and 35 chose species C. They conducted a Chi- squared analysis to test for equal preference. They obtained a X calculated 15.12, and an X critical - 5.991. Write a conclusion for this test. Do not just say "Reject" or "Do Not Reject". Your conclusion must say something about the lizards' preference.

A researcher gathered a sample of participants who volunteered for a studying of phobias. She measured anxiety level of participants as they viewed photos of spiders and again when they viewed puppies. Which statistical test is appropriate for this study and why?
A national study report indicated that 20.5% of Americans were identified as having medical bill financial issues. What if a news organization randomly sampled 400 Americans from 10 cities and found that 95 reported having such difficulty. A test was done to investigate whether the problem is MORE SEVERE among these cities. What is the p-value for this test? Select an answer and submit.

A random sample of n1 = 148 people ages 16 to 19 were taken from the island of Oahu, Hawaii, and 14 were found to be high school dropouts. Another random sample of n2 = 125 people ages 16 to 19 were taken from Sweetwater County, Wyoming, and 5 were found to be high school dropouts. Do these data indicate that the population proportion of high school dropouts on Oahu is different (either way) from that of Sweetwater County? Use a 1% level of significance.
A Michigan study concerning preference for outdoor activities used a questionnaire with a six-point Likert-type response in which 1 designated "not important" and 6 designated "extremely important." A random sample of n1 = 44 adults were asked about fishing as an outdoor activity. The mean response was x1 = 4.9. Another random sample of n2 = 49 adults were asked about camping as an outdoor activity. For this group, the mean response was x2 = 4.1. From previous studies, it is known that ?1 = 1.5 and ?2 = 2.0. Does this indicate a difference (either way) regarding preference for camping versus preference for fishing as an outdoor activity? Use a 5% level of significance. Note: A Likert scale usually has to do with approval of or agreement with a statement in a questionnaire. For example, respondents are asked to indicate whether they "strongly agree," "agree," "disagree," or "strongly disagree" with the statement.
An LED light bulb manufacturer claims that the average lifespan of its 60-watt LED light bulbs is 27,000 hours. A corporate watchdog group is suspicious of the company's claim and thinks that the true average lifespan of the 60- watt LED light bulbs produced by the company may be less than the advertised 27,000 hours. The group collected and tested a random sample of 211 light bulbs and found the average lifespan of the sample was 26,941 hours. Use the p-value method to test the hypothesis that the mean lifespan of this brand of 60-watt LED light bulb is less than 27,000 hours, using a = 0.1. Assume the standard deviation of the lifespan of all such light bulbs is known to be 370 hours. State the null and alternative hypothesis for this test. Ho: ? H₁: ?

A random sample of n1 = 157 people ages 16 to 19 were taken from the island of Oahu, Hawaii, and 12 were found to be high school dropouts. Another random sample of n2 = 129 people ages 16 to 19 were taken from Sweetwater County, Wyoming, and 6 were found to be high school dropouts. Do these data indicate that the population proportion of high school dropouts on Oahu is different (either way) from that of Sweetwater County? Use a 1% level of significance. (a) What is the level of significance? What is the value of the sample test statistic? (Test the difference p1 − p2. Do not use rounded values. Round your final answer to two decimal places.) (c) Find (or estimate) the P-value. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

An article describes a study in which a new type of ointment was applied to forearms of volunteers to study the rates of absorption into the skin.Eight locations on the forearm were designated for ointment application. The new ointment was applied to six locations,and a control was applied to the other two.How many different choices were there for the six locations to apply the new ointment?
Many people like to play app based games on their mobile devices. Suppose we would like to estimate the average amount of time (in hours) per week students have played an app-based game on their mobile device at CSU Stan. In order to do this, we take a random sample of 20 students and ask them how many hours they have played an app- based game in the last week. The following data were collected: 11 4 5.5 5.5 7 6.2 10 10 7.5 6 7 7.5 2.5 Which of the following is the correct 99% confidence interval for the estimate of the average number of hours (per week) that all CSU Stan students have played an app- based game? [5.28, 7.59] [4.86, 8.01] [5.48,7.39] [5.86, 7.01]
A manufacturer ran an experiment to compare the wearing qualities of two different types of automobile tires, A and B. In the experiment, a tire of Type A and one of the type B were randomly assigned and mounted on the rear wheels of each of five cars. the cars were then operated for x miles and the amount of tire wear was recorded (higher number represents more wear). Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a difference in the average wear? Use 0.05 level of significance. Tire A 10.6 9.8 12.3 9.7 8.8 Tire B 10.2 9.4 11.8 9.1 8.3

Does this indicate a difference (either way) regarding preference for camping versus preference for fishing as an outdoor activity?

A study was conducted to explore the possibility of a audiobook treatment effect on sleep quality (better, worse). One version of the study involved 32 uber drivers. The uber drivers were given the option to choose which group they were in. One group listened to an audiobook while they slept, while the other group did not. The researchers found a difference of 21.9 percentage points between the proportion of uber drivers in each group who experienced better sleep quality. The group that listened to an audiobook had the higher proportion. The tail proportion from a randomisation test carried out with the data from the study was 1/1000.
