Kenneth is the Chairman of the Resident's Committee of his constituency. He wishes to find out if his residents would like to have more covered walkways around the estate. With that in mind, he decides to take a sample of the residents living in his estate. In his constituency, there are ten blocks of high-rise houses (labelled A, B, C, ..., J) with 400 residents each. Kenneth chose the blocks F, A, C, E, as they were the four blocks most visible to him from his office. He then decides which floor to go to for every block by using a random number generator, and approach every available resident who lives on that floor. Which of the following describes the sampling method in this case? Multi-stage sampling None of the other options Simple random sampling Cluster sampling

A fundraiser is offering a small gift to people making a donation. The donor can choose one of four gifts: a mug, a t-shirt, a plush toy, or a water bottle. The fundraiser would like to know if any of the gifts were more or less popular or were they equal in preference. The data for n = 40 donors are below:
Lilo wants to know if equal proportions of students in her class know how to surf well, know how to surf a little or do not know how to surf. She randomly samples 60 students in her class and asks them if they know how to surf. Twenty students indicate that they do not know how to surf 'don't know', while 30 students indicate they know how to surf well 'know well,' and 10 students indicate they know how to surf ‘a little’. State the hypothesis being tested by Lilo (H0 and HA)? Test Lilo's hypothesis at α of .05. Enter the test statistic, critical value, and decision as part of your answer. Test statistic = Critical value = Do you reject or retain the null hypothesis that the slope is not different from zero? (Enter "Reject" or "Retain"):
The owner of a popular coffee shop wants to determine if there is a difference between the proportion of customers who use their own cups when they purchase a coffee beverage, and the proportion of customers who use their own cups when they purchase an espresso beverage. Customers using their own cups get a 5% discount, which is displayed on the receipt. The owner randomly selects 50 receipts from all coffee purchases and 50 receipts from all espresso purchases. For coffee purchases, 24 receipts showed that the customer used their own cup. For espresso purchases, 18 receipts showed that the customer used their own cup. Assuming the conditions for inference have been met, what is the 99% confidence interval for the difference in proportion of customers who use their own cups? Find the z-table here.

Dr. A. Ventura is interested in determining what kinds and how many pets people own in Bakersfield. He stands outside Petco and asks people what kind of pet they own. This is the result of his survey: dog=1; cat=2; bird=3; reptile=4; fish=5; other=6 1,1,2,2,2,1,1,3,2,3,1,1,1,2,2,4,4,2,2,1,1,1,5,4,3,4,1,1,1,2,2,6,1,1,2,2,1,2,1,2,6,3,4,5
A consumer agency wants to determine which of two laundry detergents, A or B, cleans clothes better. Fifty pieces of fabric are subjected to the same kinds of stains (grass, mud, coffee). Then 25 pieces are randomly assigned to be cleaned with detergent A and the remaining 25 pieces are cleaned with detergent B. After being laundered, the pieces of fabric are rated on a scale from 1–10, with 1 being the least clean to 10 being the most clean. The difference in mean ratings (A – B) was determined to be 1.5. Assuming there is no difference in the two detergents, 200 simulated differences in sample mean ratings are displayed in the dotplot. Using the dotplot and the difference in mean ratings from the samples, is there convincing evidence that the one detergent is better than the other? Yes, because a difference in mean rating of 1.5 or more occurred only 23 out of 200 times, meaning the difference is statistically significant and there is convincing evidence that A is more effective…
Indiana has a population of about 7 million people and Ohio about 12 million. Is it possible for there to be a poll where over 50% of Hoosiers say "yes", over 50% of Ohioans say "yes", but over 50% of all residents of both states say "no"? If no, explain why not. If yes, give an example of how that could happen.

Maya has two ways to travel from her home in Norco to her office in Los Angeles. One is to go via the 10 Freeway, and the other is to go via 60 Freeway. In order to determine which way she should travel on a daily basis, Maya has recorded the travel times for samples of eleven trips via the 10 Freeway and eleven trips via the 60 Freeway. The following table gives the travel times (in minutes) for the twenty-two trips. Travel times in minutes 10 Freeway 74, 72, 75, 75, 74, 72, 67, 67, 75, 69, 71 60 Freeway 70, 80, 69, 71, 69, 77, 68, 79, 74, 79, 77 Send data to calculator Send data to Excel Assume that the two populations of travel times are normally distributed and that the population variances are equal. Can we conclude, at the 0.05 level of significance, that u,, the mean travel time via the 10 freeway, is different from µ,, the mean travel time via the 60 freeway? Perform a two-tailed test. Then complete the parts below. Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal…
