In a report concerning the rise of automation in the United States, 55% of the participants indicated that they would not ride in a driverless car, and 81% favor a requirement of having a human in the driver's seat in case of an emergency. Suppose that the number oparticipants was n = 420. Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that more than a simple majority of Americans would not ride in a driverless car?A USE SALT(a) Use a formal test of hypothesis with a = 0.05 to determine whether more than 50% of Americans would not ride in a driverless car.State the null and alternative hypothesis.O Ho: p + 0.5 versus H:p = 0.5O Ho: p = 0.5 versus H: p > 0.5O H: p = 0.5 versus H: p # 0.5O Ho: p < 0.5 versus H: p > 0.5O H: p = 0.5 versus H: p < 0.5Find the test statistic.

The article "Most Women Oppose Having to Register for the Draft"† describes a survey of likely voters in the United States. The article states that 36% of those in a representative sample of male likely voters and 21% of those in a representative sample of female likely voters said that they thought the United States should have a military draft. Suppose that these percentages were based on random samples of 550 men and 550 women. The article also reported that 53% of the Republicans surveyed indicated that they were opposed to making women register for the draft. Would you use the large-sample test for a difference in population proportions to test the hypothesis that a majority of Republicans are opposed to making women register for the draft? Explain why or why not. a.) Yes, I would use the large-sample test for a difference in population proportions because the two samples are large enough. b.) Yes, I would use the large-sample test for a difference in population proportions…
Can You Tell a Story About Your Parents? In a study, young adults in the US were asked to recall a story that their parent(s) had told them about a time when their parent(s) were young. In a report of the study, it was stated that “more than 90% of teenagers and young adults can retell family stories when asked, even if they seemed uninterested when the stories were told.” The actual results of the study were that 244 young adults out of the 260 young adults who were asked about this were able to recall such a story. (a) If the standard error for the distribution is 0.015, find a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of young US adults who can recall a story that parent(s) told them about when the parent(s) were young. (b) Is the 90% value that was stated in the report consistent with the confidence interval?
Alcohol abuse has been described by college presidents as the number one problem on campus, and it is an important cause of death in young adults. How common is it? A survey of 10,904 randomly selected U.S. college students collected information on drinking behavior and alcohol-related problems. The researchers defined “frequent binge drinking” as having five or more drinks in a row three or more times in the past two weeks. According to this definition, 2486 students were classified as frequent binge drinkers. Construct and interpret a 99% confidence interval for the proportion of students who are classified as binge drinkers. (Use the four-step process.) What would you include in "State" from the 4-step process?
Do well-rounded people get fewer colds? A study on the Chronicle of Higher Education was conducted by scientist at Carnegie Mellon University, the University of Pittsburgh and the University of Virginia. They found that people who have only a few social outlets get more colds than those who are involved in a variety of social activities. Suppose that of the 276 healthy men and women tested, n1=96 had only a few social outlets and n2=105 were busy with six or more activities. When these people were exposed to a cold virus, the following results were observed: Construct a 99% confidence interval for the difference in the two population proportions.
In a survey of working parents (both parents working), one of the questions asked was "Have you refused a job, promotion, or transfer because it would mean less time with your family?" 480 men and 480 women were asked this question. 21% of the men and 27% of the women responded "Yes". Based on this survey, can it be concluded that there is a difference in the proportion of men ( p1 ) and women ( p2 ) responding "Yes"? Use a significance level of α=0.1 for the test. Step 2 of 5 : Compute the weighted estimate of p, p‾. Round your answer to three decimal places.
Healthy adults need at least 7 hours of sleep a night. (Teens need at least 9 hours.) A survey of 74,571 Americans 18 and older found that 35.3% reported sleeping less than 7 hours per night on average. People who reported sleeping less than 7 hours were more likely to report unintentionally falling asleep during the day at least once in the preceding 30 days (46.2% versus 33.2%). They were more likely to report nodding off or falling asleep while driving in the preceding 30 days (7.3% versus 3.0%). They also were more likely to report snoring (51.4% versus 46.0%).

Make a two-way frequency table, with one column for those who get at least 7 hours of sleep and one for those who do not.

A research group conducted an extensive survey of 3044 wage and salaried workers on issues ranging from relationships with their bosses to household chores. The data were gathered through hour-long telephone interviews with a nationally representative sample. In response to the question, "What does success mean to you?" 1586 responded, "Personal satisfaction from doing a good job." Let p be the population proportion of all wage and salaried workers who would respond the same way to the stated question. Find a 90% confidence interval for p.

A survey of 1000 adults from a certain region asked, "If purchasing a used car made certain upgrades or features more affordable, what would be your preferred luxury upgrade?" The results indicated that 58% of the females and 51% of the males answered window tinting. The sample sizes of males and females were not provided. Suppose that of 600 females, 348 reported window tinting as their preferred luxury upgrade of choice, while of 400 males, 204 reported window tinting as their preferred luxury upgrade of choice. Complete parts (a) through (d) below. a. Is there evidence of a difference between males and females in the proportion who said they prefer window tinting as a luxury upgrade at the 0.05 level of significance? State the null and alternative hypotheses, where π1 is the population proportion of females who said they prefer window tinting as a luxury upgrade and π2 is the population proportion of males who said they prefer window tinting as a luxury…
1. The percentage of 12- to 17-year-olds who reported talking at least once in the past year with their parents about the dangers of drug, tobacco, or alcohol is 60% nationally. A state youth council believes this proportion is higher in their state, where there has been an intense media campaign about this issue. A survey of randomly chosen students from across the state shows 1032 of 1642 students reporting they are having these conversations with their parents. Is there evidence that the percent of students using drugs, tobacco or alcohol in this state is above the national rate?
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:…
