Answer to Problem 1SR

The students that are included in the sample are PRICE, MARY LYNETTE, DETLEY, BRIAN HANS and MOLTER, KRISTI MARIE.

Explanation of Solution

From the given information, list of 46 students are given and assigned the numbers as 00 to 45. The selected random numbers are 31, 7 and 25.

The students corresponding to the selected numbers are 31-PRICE, MARY LYNETTE, 7-DETLEY, BRIAN HANS and 25-MOLTER, KRISTI MARIE.

Thus, the students that are included in the sample are PRICE, MARY LYNETTE, DETLEY, BRIAN HANS and MOLTER, KRISTI MARIE.

Answer to Problem 1SR

The own sample of students using table of random digits, Appendix B.4 are KABAT, JAMES DAVID, KILLION, MICHELLE A and LEHMANN, KRISTINA MARIE.

Explanation of Solution

The first column and the sixth row are randomly selected in the Appendix B.4. The number is 17147. From the given information, there are only 46 students. Select the first two digits of 17147. Thus, the first selected sample is 17. Continue the process by going in any direction until to get the sample of 3 students. Randomly go right from the number 17147. The first number that is right to the 17147 is 19 and the second number that is right to the 17147 is 22. Thus, the selected random numbers are 17, 19 and 22.

The students corresponding to the selected numbers are 17-KABAT, JAMES DAVID, 19-KILLION, MICHELLE A and 22-LEHMANN, KRISTINA MARIE.

Thus, the own sample of students using table of random digits, Appendix B.4 are KABAT, JAMES DAVID, KILLION, MICHELLE A and LEHMANN, KRISTINA MARIE.

To determine

Give the explanation that can be done if the number 59 is encountered in the table of random digits.

c.

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 1SR

If the number 59 is encountered in the table of random digits, then the number 59 would not be considered and another random digit would be selected to select the sample.

Explanation of Solution

The number 59 does not exist in the list because there are only 46 students. In that situation, select another random digit to select the sample.

Thus, if the number 59 is encountered in the table of random digits, then the number 59 would not be considered and another random digit would be selected to select the sample.

A marketing professor has surveyed the students at her university to better understand attitudes towards PPT usage for higher education. To be able to make inferences to the entire student body, the sample drawn needs to represent the university’s student population on all key characteristics. The table below shows the five key student demographic variables. The professor found the breakdown of the overall student body in the university’s fact book posted online. A non-parametric chi-square test was used to test the sample demographics against the population percentages shown in the table above. Review the output for the five chi-square tests on the following pages and answer the five questions: Based on the chi-square test, which sample variables adequately represent the university’s student population and which ones do not? Support your answer by providing the p-value of the chi-square test and explaining what it means. Using the results from Question 1, make recommendation for…

A retail chain is interested in determining whether a digital video point-of-purchase (POP) display would stimulate higher sales for a brand advertised compared to the standard cardboard point-of-purchase display. To test this, a one-shot static group design experiment was conducted over a four-week period in 100 different stores. Fifty stores were randomly assigned to the control treatment (standard display) and the other 50 stores were randomly assigned to the experimental treatment (digital display). Compare the sales of the control group (standard POP) to the experimental group (digital POP). What were the average sales for the standard POP display (control group)? What were the sales for the digital display (experimental group)? What is the (mean) difference in sales between the experimental group and control group? List the null hypothesis being tested. Do you reject or retain the null hypothesis based on the results of the independent t-test? Was the difference between the…
