In a sample of 45 men, 27 said that they had less leisure time today than they had 10 years ago. In a sample of 45 women, 36 women said that they had less leisure time today than they had 10 years ago. At a=0.01, is there a difference in the proportions? Use p, for the proportion of men with less leisure time.

As part of a sixth-grade class project the teacher brings to class a jar containing 200 gumballs of two different colors: red and green. Andy is asked to draw a sample of his own choosing and estimate the number of red gumballs in the jar. Andy draws a sample of 25 gumballs, of which 8 are red and 17 are green. Use Andy's sample to estimate the number of red gumballs in the jar. There are approximately Answer red gumballs in the jar.

In 2016 the Better Business Bureau settled 82% of complaints they received in the United States. Suppose you have been hired by the Better Business Bureau to investigate the complaints they received this year involving new car dealers. You plan to select a sample of new car dealer complaints to estimate the proportion of complaints the Better Business Bureau is able to settle. Assume the population proportion of complaints settled for new car dealers is 0.82, the same as the overall proportion of complaints settled in 2016. Use the z-table. a. Suppose you select a sample of 200 complaints involving new car dealers. Show the sampling distribution of p. E(p) = (to 2 decimals) 0 = (to 4 decimals) b. Based upon a sample of 200 complaints, what is the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.06 of the population proportion (to 4 decimals)? probability = c. Suppose you select a sample of 440 complaints involving new car dealers. Show the sampling distribution of p. E(p) = (to…

According to a census company. 7 1% of all bables bom are of low birth weight. An obstetrician wanted to know whether mothers between the ages of 35 and 39 years give birth to a higher percentage of low-birth-weight babies. She randomly selected 240 births for which the mother was 35 to 39 years old and found 28 low-birth-weight bables. Complete parts (a) through (c) below. (a) lf the proportion of low-birth-welght babies for mothers in this age group is 0.071, compute the expected number of low-birth-weight births to 35- to 39-year-old mothers. What is the expected number of births to mothers 35 to 39 years old that are not low birth weight? The expected number of low birth-weight births to 35- to 39-year-old mothers is The expected number of births to mothers 35 to 39 years old that are not low birth weight is (Type integers o decimals)

Explain what the P-value of 0.037 means in this context. Explain what the P-value of 0.037 means in this context. O A. There is a 3.7% difference between the effectiveness of the new treatment and the effectiveness of the traditional ointment. O B. If there is no difference in effectiveness, the chance of seeing an observed difference this large or larger is 3.7% by natural sampling variation. O C. If there is a difference in effectiveness, the chance of seeing an observed difference this large or larger is 3.7% by natural sampling variation. D. There is a 3.7% chance that the new treatment is effective.
