A marriage counselor has traditionally seen that the proportion p of all married couples for whom her communication program can prevent divorce is 76%. After making some recent changes, the marriage counselor now claims that her program can prevent divorce in more than 76% of married couples. In a random sample of 205 married couples who completed her program, 171 of them stayed together. Based on this sample, is there enough evidence to support the marriage counselor’s claim at the 0.05 level of significance?Perform a one-tailed test. Then complete the parts below. Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (For z test statistics) every expert has gotten the z test statistic wrong thus far. I have included pictures of a sample problem and formula. A. Find the value of the test statistic. (Round to three or more decimal places.) B. Find the critical value. (Round to three or more decimal places.) C. Is there enough…
The National Academy of Science reported that 41% of research in mathematics is published by US authors. The mathematics chairperson of a prestigious university wishes to test the claim that this percentage is no longer 41%. He has no indication of whether the percentage has increased or decreased since that time. He surveys a simple random sample of 186 recent articles published by reputable mathematics research journals and finds that 92 of these articles have US authors. Does this evidence support the mathematics chairperson’s claim that the percentage is no longer 41%? Use a 0.05 level of significance.

USA Today reported that about 47% of the general consumer population in the United States is loyal to the automobile manufacturer of their choice. Suppose Chevrolet did a study of a random sample of 1007 Chevrolet owners and found that 482 said they would buy another Chevrolet. Does this indicate that the population proportion of consumers loyal Chevrolet is more than 47%? Use a = 0.01. (a) What is the level of significance? State the null and alternate hypotheses. O Ho: P = 0.47; H,: p 0.47 O Ho: p > 0.47; H,: p = 0.47 O Ho: p = 0.47; H1: p + 0.47 (b) What sampling distribution will you use? O The Student's t, since np 5 and ng > 5. O The standard normal, since np 5 and ng > 5. What is the value of the sample test statistic? (Round your answer to two decimal places.) (c) Find the P-value of the test statistic. (Round your answer to four decimal places.) Sketch the sampling distribution and show the area corresponding to the P-value.

According to a Pew Research Center study, in May 2011, 33% of all American adults had a smart phone (one which the user can use to read email and surf the Internet). A communications professor at a university believes this percentage is higher among community college students. She selects 323 community college students at random and finds that 134 of them have a smart phone. In testing the hypotheses: Ho: p= 0.33 versus Ha: p > 0.33 Do the hypothesis test. Use a level of significance of a = 0.05; Use the unrounded values in Excel to find the answers for # 3 and #4. 1. I 4. Find the p-value.-- 5. The communication professor should the null hypothesis.
