In a previous poll, 35% of adults with children under the age of 18 reported that their family ate dinner together seven nights a week. Suppose that, in a more recent poll, 1088 adults with children under the age of 18 were selected at random, and 361 of those 1088 adults reported that their family ate dinner together seven nights a week. Is there sufficient evidence that the proportion of families with children under the age of 18 who eat dinner together seven nights a week has decreased? Use the a = 0.05 significance level. Because npo (1– Po) = 247.5 > 10 and the sample size is less than 5% of the population size, and the adults in the sample were selected at random, all of the requirements for testing the hypothesis are satisfied. (Round to one decimal place as needed.) What are the null and alternative hypotheses? versus H, (Type integers or decimals. Do not round.)

According to Pew Research Center surveys, 79% of U.S. adults were using the Internet in January 2011 and 83% were using it in January 2012 (USA TODAY, January 26, 2012). Suppose that these percentages are based on random samples of 1720 U.S. adults in January 2011 and 1970 in January 2012. a. Let p, and p, be the proportions of all U.S. adults who were using the Internet in January 2011 and January 2012, respectively. Construct a 95% confidence interval for p, - P2- Round your answers to three decimal places. to i
In a previous poll, 38% of adults with children under the age of 18 reported that their family ate dinner together seven nights a week. Suppose that, in a more recent poll, 1186 adults with children under the age of 18 were selected at random, and 428 of those 1186 adults reported that their family ate dinner together seven nights a week. Is there sufficient evidence that the proportion of families with children under the age of 18 who eat dinner together seven nights a week has decreased? Use the α = 0.01 significance level.

The Census Bureau of the U.S. government found that 13% of adults did not finish high school, 30% graduated from high school only, 29% had some college education but did not obtain a bachelor’s degree, and 28% were college graduates. To see if these proportions were consistent with those people who lived in the Lincoln County area, a local researcher selected a random sample of 300 adults and found that 43 did not finish high school, 76 were high school graduates only, 96 had some college education, and 85 were college graduates. At α = 0.10, test the claim that the proportions are the same for the adults in Lincoln County as those stated by the Census Bureau.
It is believed that 11% of all Americans are left-handed. A college needs to know how many left-handed desks to place in the big lecture halls being constructed on its campus. In a random sample of 210 students from that college, whether or not a student was left-handed was recorded for each student. The college wants to know if the data provide enough evidence to show that students at this college have a different percentage of left-handers than the general American population? State the random variable, population parameter, and hypotheses. State the Type I and Type II errors in the context of this problem.a) The symbol for the random variable involved in this problem is The wording for the random variable in context is as follows: b) The symbol for the parameter involved in this problem is The wording for the parameter in context is as follows: c) Fill in the correct null and alternative hypotheses: H0:H0: HA:HA:…

According to the February 2008 Federal Trade Commission report on consumer fraud and identity theft, 23% of all complaints in the U.S. in 2007 were for identity theft. In that year, Alaska had 321 complaints of identity theft out of 1,432 consumers ("Consumer fraud and," 2008). Does this data provide enough evidence to show that Alaska had a different proportion of identity theft than 23%? Test at 5% level.
In a previous poll, 37% of adults with children under the age of 18 reported that their family ate dinner together seven nights a week. Suppose that, in a more recent poll, 1101 adults with children under the age of 18 were selected at random, and 389 of those 1101 adults reported that their family ate dinner together 'seven nights a week. Is there sufficient evidence that the proportion of families with children under the age of 18 who eat dinner together seven nights a week has decreased? Use the a=0.1 significance level.

A restaurant chain would like to measure the proportion of customers who are generally satisfied with the service provided by its staff. At the end of the meal, as the check is delivered to the table, the server asks those at the table to rate their satisfaction with the service provided as "Very Satisfied," "Satisfied," or "Not Satisfied." During a one- week period, 147 customers were surveyed and 135 (93%) reported they were either Satisfied or Very Satisfied. How might the results be biased in obtaining an estimate of all customers who are satisfied with service? O Because of response bias, the survey results may overestimate the true proportion of satisfied customers. O Because of response bias, the survey results may underestimate the true proportion of satisfied customers. O Because of voluntary response bias, the survey results may overestimate the true proportion of satisfied customers. O Because customers were surveyed overa one-week period, the results should provide an…
A national research group reported that 36% of 18-24 year olds watch a cable news channel regularly. The director of media relations at a large university wanted to know what proportion of students at her university who watch a cable news channel regularly. If it is less than 36%, then she will unsubscribe to the news channels. She sampled 200 random students and found that 63 watched cable news regularly. Should she conclude that proportion of students at her university who watch cable news regularly is less than 36% at the 8% significance level? In the context of this problem and your conclusion, what type of error is possible? In the context of this problem, what would the error be? In the context of this problem, what would be a possible consequence of this error?
The Russel Reynold Association surveyed retired senior executives who had returned to work. They found that after returning to work, 38% were employed by another organization, 32% were self-employed, 23% were either freelancing or consulting, and 7% had formed their own companies. To see if these percentages are consistent with those of Allegheny County residents, a local researcher surveyed 300 retired executives who had returned to work and found that 122 were working for another company, 85 were self-employed, 76 were either freelancing or consulting, and 17 had formed their own companies. State the null and alternative hypothesis and identify the claim, at α=0.10 to test the claim that the percentages are the same for those people in Allegheny Country.
