The U.S. Census Bureau conducts annual surveys to obtain information on the percentage of the voting-age population that is registered to vote. Suppose that578 employed persons and 492 unemployed persons are independently and randomly selected, and that261 of the employed persons and 194 of the unemployed persons have registered to vote. Can we conclude that the percentage of employed workers ( p1 ), who have registered to vote, exceeds the percentage of unemployed workers ( p2 ), who have registered to vote? Use a significance level of α=0.1 for the test.
Step 5 of 6 :
Determine the decision rule for rejecting the null hypothesis H0H0. Round the numerical portion of your answer to two decimal places.

Suppose that 40 Malaysian Chinese are surveyed and they speak at least one of the three dialects, Cantonese, Hokkien or Hakka. It is found that 30 of them speak Cantonese, 20 speak Hokkien and 15 speak Hakka. It is also found that 3 of them speak all three dialects. How many of the surveyed Malaysian Chinese speak exactly two languages?

- A bookstore is planning to open a new store at Morabadi ground near Ranchi University that houses 10000 students, staff and faculty. Three other stores – Bookcabinet, Kitab Ghar and Pushtak Kendra – also sell books in the nearby locality. The findings of a survey observed that Ranchi University fraternity are very particular about the time they spend in travel for shopping. In case of books this was found to be 2.5. The store at Morabadi is three kilometers away from Ranchi University and has an area of 5000 sq.ft. for the books and it takes 15 minutes to reach the shop from university. On the other hand, Bookcabinet with 1000 sq.ft. store size (time taken = 20 min), Kitab Ghar with 2500 sq.ft. store size (time taken = 12 min) and Pushtak Kendra with 500 sq.ft. size (time taken = 6 min) are located five kilometers, three kms and one kilometer away from Ranchi University, respectively. a) What is the probability that members of Ranchi University will shop at the new book store…arrow_forwardA 24 factorial design (with factors A, B, C, D) is to be conducted in four blocks.

The first character has to be a letter. You may assume that passwords are not case sensitive. Determine:(a) the total number of possible passwords (b) the proportion of passwords that begin with a consonant;(c) the proportion of passwords that end with an even number (0,2,4,6,8); (d) the proportion of possible passwords begin with a consonant OR end with an even number (OR both) hint: use the addition law of probability: P(A U B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A ∩ B)(e) if a password was selected at random, what is the probability the password would read the same backwards as forwards? (f) solve (e) by making a simulation in R i.e. write some code to generate lots of passwords using the sample function, and count how many time you get a palindromic password.
