The poll referenced in the previous exercise ("military draft study," zap-Ipso,June 2005) also included the following question: "If the military draft were reinstated, would you favor or oppose drafting women as well as men? Forty-three percent of 1000 people responding said they would favor drafting women if the drafts were reinstated. Using a 0.5 significance level, carry out a test to determine if there is covincing evidence that fewer than half of adult Americans would favor the drafting of women.

The article "Freedom of What?" (Associated Press, February 1, 2005) described a study in which high school students and high school teachers were asked whether they agreed with the following statement: "Students should be allowed to report controversial issues in their student newspapers without the approval of school authorities." Researchers hypothesized that the long-run proportion of high school teachers who would agree with the statement would differ from the long-run proportion of high school students who would agree. Two random samples - 8,000 high school teachers and 10,000 high school students were selected from high schools in the U.S. It was reported that 39% of the teachers surveyed and 58% of the students surveyed agreed with the statement. A simulated null distribution of 1,000 differences in proportions created by using the Two Proportion applet is shown below.

In a poll conducted by The New York Times and CBS News, 44% of Americans approve of the job that the Supreme Court is doing (The New York Times, June 8, 2012). Assume that this percentage was true for the population of Americans at the time of this poll was conducted. A recent poll of 1339 Americans showed that 38% of them approve of the job that the Supreme Court is doing. At a 10% significance level, can you conclude that the current proportion of Americans who approve of the job that the Supreme Court is doing is different from 44%?
A fitness and wellness question in 2018 was asked from women over the age of 50 on how much water they consume per day. The question asked may lead to -response bias -unintentional bias -under coverage -delibate bias
A nonprofit company concerned with the school dropout rates has designed a tutoring program aimed at students between 16 to 18 years old. A national center for educational statistics reported that the high school dropout rate for the year 2000 was 10.9%.One school district, who adopted the use of the nonprofit's tutoring program and whose dropout rate has always been very close to the national average, reported in 2004 that 158 of their 1769 students dropped out. Is their experience evidence that the tutoring program has been effective? Determine the hypotheses for this test. Choose the correct answer below A. H0: p=0.109 HA: p≠0.109 B. H0: p≠0.109 HA: p=0.109 C. H0: p=0.109 HA: p<0.109 D. H0: p=0.109 HA: p≥0.109 E. H0: p≥0.109 HA: p=0.109 F.

According to the GSS 2018 dataset, 51% of 218 college graduates reported being interested in environmental issues compared with 43% of 167 high school graduates. What is the research hypothesis? Should you conduct a one- or two-tailed test? Why?
Whether a customer at a carry-out restaurant leaves a tip is a random variable. The probability that a customer leaves a tip is 0.42. The probability that one customer leaves a tip is independent of whether another customer leaves a tip. Let leaving a tip represent a “success” and not leaving a tip represent a “failure.” Does this problem describe a discrete or continuous random variable? What kind probability distribution fits the random variable described in this problem? What is the probability that a customer does not leave a tip? Calculate the mean and variance of this distribution. What is the probability that on a day with 100 customers, exactly 50 of them leave a tip?
A 2018 Gallup poll found 20% of adults aged 18 - 29 years vape. Test the claim that the proportion of 18 - 29 year old people who vape has decreased at the 5% significance level. A July 2021 Gallup poll resulted in 17% of the 1,007 of people that age vape.
Dental health issues remain a barrier to attendance, as evidenced by a 2010 Los Angeles School Attendance Review Board (SARB), which lists dental health, along with homelessness, in the top barriers to attendance. The Dental Hygiene program at West Los Angeles College collects data on its clinic patients to help instructors and students better understand their patient population. From July 2017 to December 2019 the program treated 3421 patients. Students were asked to analyze a random sample of 127 patients from that time period and found that 36.4% had severe periodontal disease (infections and inflammation of the gums and bone that surround and support the teeth). Identify the population: Identify the sample: Identify the parameter of interest: Identify the statistic:
A Bloomberg Businessweek subscriber study asked, "In the past 12 months, when traveling for business, what type of airline ticket did you purchase most often?" A second question asked if the type of flight was domestic or international travel. Sample data obtained are shown in the following table. Type of Flight Type of Ticket Domestic International First Class 26 21 Business Class 99 123 Economy Class 515 137 a. Using a 0.05 level of significance, is the type of ticket purchased independent of the type of flight? Ho: Type of ticket purchased is independent of the type of flight H.: Type of ticket purchased is not independent of the type of flight v Compute the value of the x test statistic (to 2 decimals). Use Table 3 of Appendix B to find the p-value. The p-value is - Select your answer - What is your conclusion? Conclude that the type of ticket purchased Select your answer - v the type of flight. b. Discuss any dependence that exists between the type of ticket and type of flight. I.…

According to a publication, 12.9% of 18 to 25-year-olds were users of marijuana in 2000. A recent poll of 1378 randomly selected 18 to 25-year-olds revealed that 215 currently use marijuana. At the 2% significance level, do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the percentage of 18 to 25-year-olds who currently use marijuana has changed from the 2000 percentage of 12.9%? Use the one-proportion z-test to perform the appropriate hypothesis test, after checking the conditions for the procedure.
