In a memory test, the test subjects are given a large number and are asked to memorize it. Historical records show that 80% of test subjects pass the test. To pass the test, a subject must exactly repeat all the digits in the number after two hours. A random sample of 625 people to take the memory test is going to be chosen. Let p be the proportion of people in the sample who pass the test. Answer the following. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a) Find the mean of P. 0 (b) Find the standard deviation of p. 0 (c) Compute an approximation for P(P >0.84), which is the probability that more than 84% of the people in the sample pass the test. Round your answer to four decimal places. 0 X
A vaccine to prevent a severe virus was given to children within the first year of life as part of a drug study. The study reported that of the 3456bchildren randomly assigned the vaccine, 58 got the virus. Of the 1606 children randomly assigned the placebo, 46 got the virus. a. Find the sample percentage of children who caught the virus in each group. Is the sample percentage lower for the vaccine group, as investigators hoped? b. Determine whether the vaccine is effective in reducing the chance of catching the virus, using a significance level of 0.01.The first few steps of the hypothesis-testing procedure are given. Complete the procedure.
Maryland, as the four U.S. cities with the highest percentage of millionaires (Kiplinger website). Consider a sample of data that show the following number of millionaires for samples of individuals from each of the four cities. Millionaire Cannot conclude Bridgeport, CT CA San Jose, CA Yes 42 36 No 458 264 a. What is the estimate of the percentage of millionaires in each of these cities (to 1 decimal)? 0.436 Use Table 3 of Appendix B to find the p-value. The p-value is greater than 0.10 What is your conclusion? City Washington, D.C. 35 365 Bridgeport, San Jose, Washington, Lexington Park, CT D.C. MD Lexington Park, 46 27.4 Percentage, % 36.5 b. Using a = 0.05 level of significance, test for the equality of the population proportion of millionaires for these four cities. What is the p-value? Compute the value of the x² test statistic (to 3 decimals). 36.5 MD 33 367 that there is a difference among the population proportion of millionaires for these four cities.
A state fisheries commission wants to estimate the number of bass caught in a given lake during a season in order to restock the lake with the appropriate number of young fish. The commission could get a fairly accurate assessment of the seasonal catch by extensive “netting sweeps" of the lake before and after a season, but this technique is much too expensive to be done routinely. Therefore, the commission samples a number of lakes and record the seasonal catch (thousands of bass per square mile of lake area) and size of lake (square miles). A simple linear regression was performed and the following R output obtained. Estimate Std. Error t value Pr(>|t|) (Intercept) 2.5463 0.4427 5.7513 0.0000 size 0.0667 0.3672 0.1818 0.8578 If a scatterplot showed a non-linear relationship between the response and explanatory variables, what should be done?

An article describes a study in which a new type of ointment was applied to forearms of volunteers to study the rates of absorption into the skin.Eight locations on the forearm were designated for ointment application. The new ointment was applied to six locations,and a control was applied to the other two.How many different choices were there for the six locations to apply the new ointment?

A quarterback threw 1 interception in his first game, 2 interceptions in his second game, and 5 inter-ceptions in his third game, and then he retired. Consider the values1, 2, and 5 to be a population. Assume that samples of size 2 are randomly selected (with replacement) from the population. List the 9 different possible samples, and find the mean of each sample.
