- A study was conducted to determine the proportion of people who dream in black and white instead of color. Among 285 people over the age of 55, 68 dream in black and white, and among 307 people under the age of 25, 14 dream in black and white. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that the proportion of people over 55 who dream in black and white is greater than the proportion for those under 25. An explanation for the results is that those over the age of 55 grew up exposed to media that was displayed in black and white. Can these results be used to verify that explanation? A. Yes. The results can be used to verify the given explanation because the difference in proportions is practically significant. B. Yes. The results can be used to verify the given explanation because the difference in proportions is statistically significant. C. No. The results speak to a possible difference between the proportions of people over 55 and under 25 who dream in…Because the confidence interval limits v 0, it appears that the two proportions are V Because the confidence interval limits include V values, it appears that the proportion of people over 55 who dream in black and white is V the proportion for those under 25. c. An explanation for the results is that those over the age of 55 grew up exposed to media that was displayed in black and white. Can these results be used to verify that explanation? O A. No. The results speak to a possible difference between the proportions of people over 55 and under 25 who dream in black and white, but the results cannot be used to verify the cause of such a difference. O B. No. The results speak to a possible difference between the proportions of people over 55 and under 25 who dream in black and white, but the results are not statistically significant enough to verify the cause of such a difference. O C. Yes. The results can be used to verify the given explanation because difference in proportions is…A study was conducted to determine the proportion of people who dream in black and white instead of color. Among 320 people over the age of 55, 72 dream in black and white, and among 313 people under the age of 25, 15 dream in black and white. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that the proportion of people over 55 who dream in black and white is greater than the proportion for those under 25. Complete parts (a) through (c) below. a. Test the claim using a hypothesis test. Consider the first sample to be the sample of people over the age of 55 and the second sample to be the sample of people under the age of 25.

- The coach of a very popular men’s basketball team claims that the average distance the fans travel to the campus to watch a game is 35 miles. The team members feel otherwise. A sample of 16 fans who travel to games was randomly selected and yielded a mean of M= 36 miles and s= 5 miles. Test the coach’s claim at the 5% (.05) level of significance. one-tailed or two-tailed test: State the hypotheses: df= tα or t value for the critical region = sM = t (test statistic)= Decision:In a Gallup poll of 1003 randomly selected subjects, 370 said they have a gun in their home.
