A psychologist is interested investigating the proportion of depressed teenagers in a particular city. Using a sample of 40 teenagers, 16 were found to exhibit symptoms of depression. At ?=0.01,test the claim that more that 35% of teenagers who live in the city exhibit symptoms of depression.
A poll was conducted on a representative sample of 600 adults living in the United States in order to investigate the decline in cable and satellite TV subscriptions. For this sample, 150 adults revealed that they are "cord cutters," (that is, they canceled their cable/satellite TV service and now only use a video streaming service). You want to estimate p, the true proportion of all US adults who are "cord cutters." Complete parts a through e. d. Give a practical interpretation of the confidence interval from part c. (Type integers or decimals rounded to three decimal places as needed. Use ascending order.) A. The probability that the true proportion of all US adults who are "cord cutters" is enter your response here lies between enter your response here and enter your response here. B. We can be enter your response here% confident that the true proportion of all US adults who are "cord cutters" lies between enter your response here and enter your…
In a science fair project, Emily conducted an experiment in which she tested professional touch therapists to see if they could sense her energy field. She flipped a coin to select either her right hand or her left hand, and then she asked the therapists to identify the selected hand by placing their hand just under Emily's hand without seeing it and without touching it. Among 358 trials, the touch therapists were correct 171 times. Complete parts (a) through (d). a. Given that Emily used a coin toss to select either her right hand or her left hand, what proportion of correct responses would be expected if the touch therapists made random guesses? (Type an integer or a decimal. Do not round.) b. Using Emily's sample results, what is the best point estimate of the therapists' success rate? (Round to three decimal places as needed.) c. Using Emily's sample results, construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the proportion of correct responses made by touch therapists. O

Supposed that in the past, 10% of women in the Philippines have severe dysmenorrhea. Do we have enough reason to believe that the proportion of women having terrible cramps has decreased if, in a random barangay population of 1,256 women, 122 have severe enough cramping to interfere with their daily lives? Use a = 0.05
It is bleieved that the percent of convicted felons who have a history of juvenile deliquency is 70%. Is there evidence to support the claim that the actual percentage is more than 70% if out of 200 convicted felons, we find that 154 have a history of juvenile deliquency? Set the level of significance at a = 0.05
