Symposium is part of a larger work referred to as Plato's Dialogues. Wishart and Leach† found that about 21.4% of five-syllable sequences in Symposium are of the type in which four are short and one is long. Suppose an antiquities store in Athens has a very old manuscript that the owner claims is part of Plato's Dialogues. A random sample of 480 five-syllable sequences from this manuscript showed that 127 were of the type four short and one long. Do the data indicate that the population proportion of this type of five-syllable sequence is higher than that found in Plato's Symposium? Use ? = 0.01. 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.

Prose rhythm is characterized as the occurrence of five-syllable sequences in long passages of text. This characterization may be used to assess the similarity among passages of text and sometimes the identity of authors. The following information is based on an article by D. Wishart and S. V. Leach appearing in Computer Studies of the Humanities and Verbal Behavior (Vol. 3, pp. 90-99). Syllables were categorized as long or short. On analyzing Plato's Republic, Wishart and Leach found that about 26.1% of the five-syllable sequences are of the type in which two are short and three are long. Suppose that Greek archaeologists have found an ancient manuscript dating back to Plato's time (about 427 - 347 B.C.). A random sample of 320 five-syllable sequences from the newly discovered manuscript showed that 62 are of the type two short and three long. Do the data indicate that the population proportion of this type of five syllable sequence is different (either way) from the text of Plato's…

A survey of 101 college students found that 18 take only algebra, 21 take only statistics, 25 take only pre-calculus, 10 take only algebra and statistics, 9 take only statistics and precalculus, 2 take all three, and 15 take none of the courses surveyed. How many students take only algebra and precalculus?
From a survey participated by 42 students, the following were found:9 studied on Friday; 18 studied on Saturday; 30 studied on Sunday; 3 studied on both Friday and Saturday; 10 studied on both Saturday and Sunday; 6 studied on both Friday and Sunday; 2 studied on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. How many students did not study at all?
The Department of Mathematics of a certain university in a recent survey was found to consist of 80 faculty members. The survey also revealed the information that among them, there are: 40 male professors; 38 married professors; 26 professors with more than 10 years of service; 15 married male professors; 14 married professors with more than 10 years of service; 13 male professors with more than 10 years of service; and 6 married male professors with more than 10 years of service. How many unmarried female professors have less than or equal to 10 years of service?
2. An educational psychologist is interested in whether using a child's own name in a story affected attention span while reading. Six children were randomly assigned to read a story under ordinary conditions (using common and generic names). Five other children read versions of the same story, but with each child's own name substituted for one of the children in the story. The researcher measured the amount of time (in minutes) each child spent reading the story. The results are shown in the following table. Does including the child’s name make any difference in attention span? Ordinary Story Own-Name Story Student Read Time Student Read Time A 2 G 7 В 3 H 10 7 11 9. 4 E 6. K 12 F 7 Test the hypothesis at an alpha set to .05, following these steps: a) write the null and alternative hypotheses; b) determine the critical value(s); c) draw the comparison distribution with rejection region(s) shaded; d) use the correct formula to compute the test statistic; e) state the statistical…
