- 6. In March 2010, the Pew Research Group surveyed 1708 adults Americans and asked, "Do you believe the USA was right or wrong to in using military force against Iraq?" Of the 1708 adults surveyed, 1186 stated the USA made the correct decision. In January of 2020, the Pew Research group asked the same question to 1375 adult Americans and found that 934 still share the same opinion that military force was correct. Is there significant evidence to support the claim that this proportion is lower now than it was in 2010? Use alpha = 0.05 a. Set up the Hypotheses and indicate the claim H0: Ha: b. Decision rule. please show the rejected region c. Computation d. Decision e. InterpretationThe State of Virginia has instituted a series of standards of learning (SOL) tests in math, history, English, and science that all high school students must pass with a grade of 70 before they are allowed to graduate and receive their diplomas. The school superintendent of Montgomery County believes the tests are unfair because the test scores are closely related to teacher salary and tenure (i.e., the years a teacher has been at a school). The superintendent has sampled 12 other county school systems in the state and accumulated the following data for average teacher salary and average teacher tenure: a. Using Excel or QM for Windows, develop the multiple regression equation for these data. b. What is the coefficient of determination for this regression equation? Do you think the superintendent is correct in his beliefs? c. Montgomery County has an average SOL score of 74, with an average teacher salary of $27,500 and an average teacher tenure of 7.8 years. The superintendent has…This research was conducted with Korean adolescents in the Los Angeles area. Would you be willing to generalize the results of this study to Korean adolescents who live in other regions of the country? Why or why not.
- There is some research to indicate that different dog breeds differ in emotionality. To consider these differences, a researcher administers a standard test of emotionality to 3 breeds of dogs (German Shepherd, Cocker Spaniel, and Chihuahua), with 4 dogs from each breed being tested. Higher scores mean higher emotionality. The results for the emotionality test scores appear below. Using the 7 steps of hypothesis testing, test the idea that there are differences in emotionality based on dog breed using α = .05 Emotionality Scores for Dogs German Shepherd Cocker Spaniel Chihuahua 6 0 10 1 4 12 7 0 9 2 0 8 T = 16 T = 4 T = 39 Gt = 59 N = 12 ∑x2 = 495 4.

When a standardized test is used to assess the knowledge of all students at al US universities about world events, it is reported that the national mean. A sample of 35 students from Rowan university are tested and the sample mean is 58 and the standard error is 3.2. The 99 percent confidence interval of population mean knowledge of the students at Rowan university has to be determined. 6.

A matter of special concern to her is how she is viewed by students of different majors. She's decided to look at the last question on the teacher evaluation form, Question 17, which is, "Would you recommend this professor to another student?" Each of Prof. Flores' students can be placed into one of three categories according to the student's major school, as shown in the contingency table below. (Students who have majors from more than one school are not included.) This table contains a summary of the data that Prof. Flores has collected for 500 of her students. Each of the 500 students is classified according to two variables: major school ("School of Social Science", "School of Engineering", or "School of Physical Sciences") and response to Question 17 ("No", "Maybe", or "Yes"). In the cells of the table are written the…

Skills Learned Customary Course New Course Excellent 7 13 Good 15 15 Unsatisfactory 8 2 Calculate the appropriate test statistics and df. Compare the obtained test statistic to the critical value at the .05 alpha level. Do you accept or reject the null hypothesis, explain.1) What type of data are collected for each sample (categorical or numerical)? How many samples have been selected?

At the end of the meal, as the check is delivered to the table, the server asks those at the table to rate their satisfaction with the service provided as "Very Satisfied," "Satisfied," or "Not Satisfied." During a one- week period, 147 customers were surveyed and 135 (93%) reported they were either Satisfied or Very Satisfied. How might the results be biased in obtaining an estimate of all customers who are satisfied with service?

O Because of response bias, the survey results may underestimate the true proportion of satisfied customers. O Because of voluntary response bias, the survey results may overestimate the true proportion of satisfied customers. O Because customers were surveyed overa one-week period, the results should provide an…
