the researcher wants to determine if more than 50% of the packs of junk food contains sodium of at least 70mg. 12 packs were randomly selected. based on the samples, 10 packs contain sodium of at least 70mg while 2 contain of less than 70mg. is z-test can be used as an alternative to binomial exact test since nPo & n(1-Po) are sufficiently large (both at least 5)?

A private and a public university are located in the same city. For the private university, 1043 alumni were surveyed and 654 said that they attended at least one class reunion. For the public university, 809 out of 1324 sampled alumni claimed they have attended at least one class reunion. Is the difference in the sample proportions statistically significant? (Use α=0.05) a) Reject the null hypothesis which states there is no difference in the proportion of alumni that attended at least one class reunion in favor of the alternate which states there is a difference in the proportions. b) Fail to reject the null hypothesis. There is not enough evidence to conclude that there is a difference in the proportions. c) There is not enough information to make a conclusion.

Two Independent random samples of n observations are to be selected from each of two binomial populations. If you wish to estimate the difference in the two population proportions correct to within 0.05, with probability equal to 0.98, how large should n be?
Previously, 3% of mothers smoked more than 21 cigarettes during their pregnancy. An obstetrician believes that the percentage of mothers who smoke 21 cigarettes or more is less than 3% today. She randomly selects 145 pregnant mothers and finds that 3 of them smoked 21 or more cigarettes during pregnancy. Test the researcher's statement at the a = 0.1 level of significance. What are the null and alternative hypotheses? Ho: versus H,: (Type integers or decimals. Do not round.)
Suppose that when a new machine is functioning well, 92% of the items produced are non-defective. Assume that a random sample of 5 parts produced on the machine is selected and we are interested in the number of defective parts found. What are the conditions for this experiment to be considered a binomial experiment?
Based on Information from a previous study, r, = 39 people out of a random sample of n, 98 adult Americans who did not attend college belleve in extraterrestrials. However, out of a random sample of n, = 98 adult Americans who did attend college, r, = 46 clatm that they believe in extraterrestrials. Does this Indicate that the proportion of people who attended college and who beleve in extraterrestrials is higher than the proportion who did not attend college? Use a = 0.01.

Four-year-olds in China average 3 unsupervised hours per day. Most of the unsupervised children live in rural areas, considered safe. Suppose that the amount of unsupervised time is normally distributed with standard deviation 0.5 . A Chinese 4-year-old is randomly selected from a rural area. We are interested in the amount of time the child spends alone per day. In each appropriate box you are to enter either a rational number in "p/q" format or a decimal value accurate to the nearest 0.01 a. (3%) In words, the random variable X in which we are interested is defined by X = (pick one) b. (3%) Find the probability that the child spends less than one hour per day unsupervised. P(X 10) = d. (3%) The 70th percentile of the distribution of unsupervised time is given by P(X < = 0.70 .
Suppose there is a random Uniform(-1, 1) random variable (Null hypothesis), or Uniform(0,1) (alternative hypothesis) depend on 3 independent sample X1, X2, X3. What is the smallest possible false negative error among all tests with false positive error 1/8?
Previously, 4% of mothers smoked more than 21 cigarettes during their pregnancy. An obstetrician believes that the percentage of mothers who smoke 21 cigarettes or more is less than 4% today. She randomly selects 135 pregnant mothers and finds that 4 of them smoked 21 or more cigarettes during pregnancy. Test the researcher's statement at the a= 0.1 level of significance. What are the null and alternative hypotheses? Họ: P = 0.04 versus H,: p < 0.04 (Type integers or decimals. Do not round.) Because npo (1- Po) =U (Round to one decimal place as needed.) 10, the normal model be used to approximate the P-value.
