A study reported that about half of young adults continue to text and drive, despite the dangers. To find out if this applies to teens, you asked an SRS of 30 classmates if they texted while driving, and 13 responded "Yes.”
Here are the results of 100 trials of this simulation. Does this provide convincing evidence that the students at your school are practicing safer driving habits than the young adults in the study?
Based on the 100 simulated trials, there is about a % chance of obtaining these sample results.
This unusual and be seen as convincing evidence that the teens at this school practice safer driving habits than the young adults in the study.

- An online bookseller is considering selling an e-reader but will only do so if they have evidence that the proportion of customers that will likely purchase one is at least 0.4. Based on a survey of 25 customers, it was found that 8 of them stated that they would likely purchase an e-reader. what should the bookseller do?arrow_forwardThe 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of yes responses is (0.55, 0.71) for strong Democrats and (0.17, 0.34) for strong Republicans. How would you interpret each of these intervals?

He's skeptical paying for this training is worth it, but fortunately Samuel is a statistician and friends with some researchers at the veterinary school. They randomly recruit 70 dogs to take part in the study, and a respected pet trainer in the region agrees to help train these dogs as part of the study. Prior to the study, Samuel and the vets pair off all the dogs based on both biological characteristics as well as owner characteristics. As a result, they have 35 pairs of dogs that are relatively similar. One dog in each pair is randomly chosen to receive the professional behavior training, while the other dog will not receive the training (but will still be trained by its owners). After training the dogs for two months, a second professional dog trainer is brought in to assess the obedience levels of all the dogs. Assume they are able to do so and can convert their ratings to a…arrow_forward
- BFW Publishers An article in Forbes magazine claims that half of the adults in the United States do not have any savings. To substantiate that claim, the company, GoBanking, asked a random sample of 500 adults around the country how much money they have in savings and found that 265, or 53% of them, had no savings. To determine if these data provide convincing evidence that more than half of the adults in the United States do not have any savings, 200 simulated SRSS were selected. Each dot in the graph shows the number of adults that have no savings in a simulated SRS of 500 adults, assuming that each person has a 50% chance of not having any savings. The sample result showed that 265 out of 500 adults had no savings. The simulation shows the number of adults out of 500 that we can expect to have no savings if 50% is true. 220 225 230 235 240 245 250 255 260 265 270 275 280 Simulated sample count of adults that do not have any savings Based on the results of the simulation, is there…arrow_forwardEric is studying people's typing habits. He surveyed 525 people and asked whether they leave one space or two spaces after a period when typing. 440 people responded that they leave one space. Create a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of people who leave one space after a period.arrow_forwardThere are three major companies who manufacture gaming consoles. The table below shows that market shares of these three companies, based on last year's global sales figures. This year, each of these companies is going to launch a new generation of their console. In a survey, a random sample of console owners were asked, which company's new model they are most likely to buy. The results of the survey are show below: We can use these data to test whether we have enough evidence that the market shares of the three companies are going to change. Calculate the test statistic which can be used to test the null hypothesis that distribution of current buying intentions among console owners are identical to last year's market shares.
