The probability that Peter will play during the first half of any particular soccer game is 70%. If he plays during the first half, there is only a 40% chance that he'll play again during the second half. If he doesn't play during the first half, there is an 80% chance that he'll play during the second half. Draw the complete tree diagram describing this scenario.

The owner of a chain of mini-markets wants to compare the sales performance of two of her stores, Store 1 and Store 2. Sales can vary considerably depending on the day of the week and the season of the year, so she decides to eliminate such effects by making sure to record each store's sales on the same 12 days, chosen at random. She records the sales (in dollars) for each store on these days, as shown in the table below. 5 6 7 Day Store 1 Store 2 1 Difference (Store 1 - Store 2) Send data to calculator ✓ 2 3 786 878 827 645 708 500 699 140 Yes No 4 646 802 712 579 527 367 76 115 66 181 133 8 (a) State the null hypothesis H and the alternative hypothesis H₁.

This semester, we have talked about creating random samples as well as desirable qualities of random samples. Other than randomness, one quality of random samples that we have talked about is representation. Using your knowledge of that concept, consider this problem. At a college, 29% of the students are in their first year, 27% are in their second year, 25% in their third, and 19% in their fourth. You take a survey of students and when you classify them by year of study, you have 49, 70, 56, and 25 students in their first, second, third, and fourth years respectively. The table below highlights this information. Year of School First Second Third Fourth Total College Percents Sample Counts Expected Counts 27% 70 25% 56 29% 19% 49 25 200 58 54 50 38 Under the assumption that we think the college enrollment percentages should match our sample, and that therefore our sample represents the college: a) What would the critical value be? (use a = 0.05) b) Find the test statistic to test (c)…
On a particular night, a baseball stadium sells 60% of its seats, and of those, 15% do not end up showing up to the game. Assuming everyone present is sitting in a seat, what percentage of seats in the stadium are empty?
Practice question #3 Investigators want to know if those who work long hours have more trouble sleeping. In one sample of 190 British civil servants who worked more than 40 hours a week, 95 of them said they usually get less than 7 hours of sleep per night. In a second sample of 150 British civil servants who worked between 35 and 40 hours per week, 63 of them said they usually get less than 7 hours of sleep per night. The investigators believe these are represent samples of the populations. Find a 95% Confidence Interval for the difference in proportions of these two populations that get less than 7 hours of sleep per night. Then interpret the confidence interval. Be sure to check that any necessary conditions are met first. Round final answers to 3 decimal places. Verify conditions are appropriate for method: Interval: ________________________ Does the interval contain zero? __________ What does this information lead you to conclude?
Otitis media, or middle ear infection, is initially treated with an antibiotic. Researchers have compared two antibiotics, A and B, for their cost effectiveness. A is inexpensive, safe, and effective. B is also safe. However, it is considerably more expensive and it is generally more effective. Use the tree diagram to the right (where the costs are estimated as the total cost of medication, office visit, ear check, and hours of lost work) to answer the following. a. Find the expected cost of using each antibiotic to treat a middle ear infection. b. To minimize the total expected cost, which antibiotic should be chosen? a. The expected cost of using antibiotic A is S (Round to the nearest cent as needed.)

Psychologists Erik Erikson suggested that individuals go through eight developmental stages of life. Erikson believed that at stage 8 (age 65 to death), an adult's fear of death can be predicted by the satisfaction they feel when reflecting back on their lives. To investigate, a psychiatrist interviewed a random sample of adults age 65 and older, and scored them on their satisfaction with their lives and their fear of death. The psychiatrist wants to confirm Erikson's theory. What can be concluded with a = 0.01? fear of death satisfied 4 3 4 2 2 10 3 2 4 7 3 4 8. 4 a) Select and compute the appropriate statistic. ---Select--- b) Input the appropriate value(s) to make a decision about Ho. p-value X ; Decision: Fail to reject H0 v c) Using the SPSS results, compute the corresponding effect size(s) and indicate magnitude(s).

Mateo believes that completely cutting caffeine out of a person's diet will allow them more restful sleep at night. He randomly selects 8 adults to help him test this theory. Each person is asked to consume two caffeinated beverages per day for 28 days and then cut back to no caffeinated bevarages for an additional 28 days. During each period, the participants record the number of nights of restful sleep that they had. The following table gives the results of the study. Test Mateo's claim at the 0.05 level of significance. Give answers to 4 decimal places as needed.

Participants in a study of a new medication received either medication A or a placebo. Find P(placebo and improvement). You may find it helpful to make a tree diagram of the problem on a separate piece of paper. Of all those who participated in the study, 80% received medication A. Of those who received medication A, 76% reported an improvement. Of those who received the placebo, 62% reported no improvement.
