ina 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 selected at random, all of the requirements for testing the hypothesis were are satisfied. (Round to one decimal place as needed.) What are the null and alternative hypotheses? versus H,: Ho: (Type integers or decimals. Do not round.)

Suppose a marriage counselor believes that the proportion of married couples with three personality preferences in common is significantly different from the known value of 35%. A survey randomly given to her current and former clients found 130 of 432 couples who sharedthree personality preferences. Does this indicate that the proportion is significantly different (either higher or lower)? Use a 1% level of significance to test her claim and show all work.
A random sample of n1 = 157 people ages 16 to 19 were taken from the island of Oahu, Hawaii, and 12 were found to be high school dropouts. Another random sample of n2 = 129 people ages 16 to 19 were taken from Sweetwater County, Wyoming, and 6 were found to be high school dropouts. Do these data indicate that the population proportion of high school dropouts on Oahu is different (either way) from that of Sweetwater County? Use a 1% level of significance. (a) What is the level of significance? (b)What is the value of the sample test statistic? (Test the difference p1 − p2. Do not use rounded values. Round your final answer to two decimal places.) (c) Find (or estimate) the P-value. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

In a random survey of 500 men who asked a woman's father for permission before asking the woman for her hand in marriage, 143 said the marriage ended in divorce. In a random survey of 500 men who did not first ask a woman's father for permission, 169 of the marriages ended in divorce. Is there convincing evidence at 5% level, that men who ask a woman's father for permission before asking the woman have marriages with lower divorce rates?
A new weight-reducing technique, consisting of a liquid protein diet, is currently undergoing tests by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) before its introduction into the market. The weights of a random sample of five people are recorded before they are introduced to the liquid protein diet. The five individuals are then instructed to follow the liquid protein diet for 3. weeks. At the end of this period, their weights (in pounds) are again recorded. The results are listed in the table. Person Weight Before Diet Weight After Diet 1 165 160 2 210 207 3 203 202 4 216 208 220 217 5 (1) Is there a significant difference between the means of the weights before and after the diet?

An amusement park keeps track of the percentage of individuals with season passes according to age category. An independent tourist company would like to show that this distribution of age category for individuals buying season passes is different from what the amusement park claims. The tourist company randomly sampled 200 individuals entering the park with a season pass and recorded the number of individuals within each age category. Age Category Child (under 13 years old) Teen (13 to 19 years old) Adult (20 to 55 years old) Senior (56 years old and over) Number of Individuals 56 86 44 14 The tourist company will use the data to test the amusement park’s claim, which is reflected in the following null hypothesis. H0:pchild=0.23H0:pchild=0.23, pteen=0.45pteen=0.45, padult=0.20padult=0.20, and psenior=0.12psenior=0.12.

A dietician read in a survey that 70.5% of adults in the U.S. do not eat breakfast at least 3 days a week. She believes that the proportion that skip breakfast 3 days a week is different than 0.705. To verify her claim, she selects a random sample of 71 adults and asks them how many days a week they skip breakfast.. 44 of them report that they skip breakfast at least 3 days a week. Test her claim at a = 0.10. The correct hypotheses would be: О Но:р 0.705 (claim) Но: р > 0.705 HA:p < 0.705 (claim) О Но: р — 0.705 HA:P + 0.705 (claim) Since the level of significance is 0.10 the critical value is 1.645 and -1.645 The test statistic is: (round to 3 places) The p-value is: (round to 3 places) The decision can be made to: O reject Ho O do not reject Ho The final conclusion is that: O There is enough evidence to reject the claim that the proportion that skip breakfast 3 days a week is different than 0.705. O There is not enough evidence to reject the claim that the proportion that skip…

A random sample of n1 = 148 people ages 16 to 19 were taken from the island of Oahu, Hawaii, and 14 were found to be high school dropouts. Another random sample of n2 = 125 people ages 16 to 19 were taken from Sweetwater County, Wyoming, and 5 were found to be high school dropouts. Do these data indicate that the population proportion of high school dropouts on Oahu is different (either way) from that of Sweetwater County? Use a 1% level of significance.
