The relative effectiveness of two different sales techniques was tested on 12 volunteer housewives. Each housewife was exposed to each sales technique and asked to buy a certain product, the same product in all cases.

A cellphone provider has the business objective of wanting to determine the proportion of subscribers who would upgrade to a new cellphone with improved features if it were made available at a substantially reduced cost. Data are collected from a random sample of 600 subscribers. The results indicate that 131 of the subscribers would upgrade to a new cellphone at a reduced cost. Reducing the price will be profitable if at least 20% of the subscribers would upgrade. Complete parts (a) and (b) below. Question content area bottom Part 1 a.

WebAssign + → X CO TE ICTTET EER .... .... ...... H...... How profitable are different sectors of the stock market? One way to answer such a question is to examine profit as a percentage of stockholder equity. A random sample of 26 retail stocks such as Toys 'R' Us, Best Buy, and Gap was studied for x1, profit as a percentage of stockholder equity. The result was x1 = 13.6. A random sample of 33 utility (gas and electric) stocks such as Boston Edison, Wisconsin Energy, and Texas Utilities was studied for x2, profit as a percentage of stockholder equity. The result was x2 = 10.1. Assume that o1 = 4.2 and o, = 3.3. (a) Categorize the problem below according to parameter being estimated, proportion p, mean u, difference of means µ1 - µ2, or difference of proportions p1 - P2. Then solve the problem.
