Chapter 10.4, Problem 33E
Chicago O’Hare and Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson are the two busiest airports in the United States. The congestion often leads to delayed flight arrivals as well as delayed flight departures. The Bureau of Transportation tracks the on-time and delayed performance at major airports (Travel & Leisure, November 2006). A flight is considered delayed if it is more than 15 minutes behind schedule. The following sample data show the delayed departures at Chicago O’Hare and Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson airports.
| Chicago O’Hare | Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson | |
| Flights | 900 | 1200 |
| Delayed Departures | 252 | 312 |
- a. State the hypotheses that can be used to determine whether the population proportions of delayed departures differ at these two airports.
- b. What is the point estimate of the proportion of flights that have delayed departures at Chicago O’Hare?
- c. What is the point estimate of the proportion of flights that have delayed departures at Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson?
- d. What is the p-value for the hypothesis test? What is your conclusion?

You will use a single test car, adding weights so that its total weight is 3000, 3500, or 4000 pounds. The car will drive on a test track at each weight using each of Amoco, Marathon, and Speedway gasoline. Which is the best way to organize the study? Start with 3000 pounds and Amoco and run the car on the test track. Then do 3500 and 4000 pounds. Change to Marathon and go through the three weights in order. Then change to Speedway and do the three weights in order once more. Start with 3000 pounds and Amoco and run the car on the test track. Then change to Marathon and then to Speedway without changing the weight. Then add weights to get 3500 pounds and go through the three gasolines in the same order.Then change to 4000 pounds and do the three gasolines in order again. Choose a gasoline at random, and run the car with this gasoline at…arrow_forward
