1.18 Cats on YouTube. Suppose you want to estimate the percentage of videos on YouTube that are cat videos. It is impossible for you to watch all videos on YouTube so you use a random video picker to select 1000 videos for you. You find that 2% of these videos are cat videos. Determine which of the following is an observation, a variable, a sample statistic (value calculated based on the observed sample), or a population parameter
In case of hypothesis testing in places where population variances are unknown and sample size is large (nl and n22 30), sample variances can be a good approximation of population variances. Which best describe this statement? Select one: O a. None of the choices O b. The statement is true c. The statement is false O d. Not enough data to support the statement O e. The statement is neither true nor false
3. On the average 35 % of the people afflicted with a certain disease die from it. Under a new treatment only 22% out of 200 patients die from it. Using a 0.05 level of significance, ca we say that the new treatment is effective?
3. Can SAT scores predict college performance? Let x be a variable that represents SAT score of a computer science major, and let y be a variable that represents a student’s GPA upon graduation. A random sample of n =15 computer science majors provided their SAT scores and GPAs: x 1232 1070 1086 1287 1130 1048 1121 1095 1135 1208 1333 1160 1186 1243 1261 y 3.52 2.91 2.4 3.47 3.47 2.37 2.4 2.24 3.02 3.32 3.59 2.54 3.19 3.71 3.58 The scatter diagram for the SAT score and GPA is given below: (a) Find the sample correlation coefficient r. Truncate to two decimal places. What does the value tell you about the data? (b) Find the equation of the least squares line . Truncate to four decimal places. What does the slope mean?

Suppose your null hypothesis is that engineering majors earn more than $80,000. Further, researchers collect and analyze sample data that leads them to fail to reject this null hypothesis. However, in the population, it is true that engineering majors earn less than $80,000. What would we call this error? a. Type I error b. Type II error c. No error occured d. Error equal to the level of significance
The U.S. Department of Labor stated that the national unemployment rate was 4.9%. Of a sample of 90 people in one city, 5.2% were unemployed. Can the city conclude that their unemployment rate is the same as the national average? Do we reject the null hypothesis? (Answer on Excel)
10. A random sample of n =4 individuals is selected from a population with u = 35, and a treatment is administered to each individual in the sample. After treatment, the sample mean is found to be M = 40.1 with SS = 48. %3| a. How much difference is there between the mean for the treated sample and the mean for the original population? (Note: In a hypothesis test, this value forms the numerator of the t statistic.) b. If there is no treatment effect, how much difference is expected between the sample mean and its population mean? That is, find the standard error for M. (Note: In a hypothesis test, this value is the denominator of the t statistic.) c. Based on the sample data, does the treatment have a significant effect? Use a two-tailed test with a = .05.
