BUSINESS DISCUSS
A researcher wishes to estimate, with 90% confidence, the population proportion of adults who support labeling
legislation for genetically modified organisms (GMOs). Her estimate must be accurate within 4% of the true proportion.
(a) No preliminary estimate is available. Find the minimum sample size needed.
(b) Find the minimum sample size needed, using a prior study that found that 65% of the respondents said they support
labeling legislation for GMOs.
(c) Compare the results from parts (a) and (b).
...
(a) What is the minimum sample size needed assuming that no prior information is available?
n =
(Round up to the nearest whole number as needed.)
The table available below shows the costs per mile (in cents) for a sample of automobiles. At a = 0.05, can you conclude that at least one mean
cost per mile is different from the others?

- Question: A company launches two different marketing campaigns to promote the same product in two different regions. After one month, the company collects the sales data (in units sold) from both regions to compare the effectiveness of the campaigns. The company wants to determine whether there is a significant difference in the mean sales between the two regions. Perform a two sample T-test You can provide your answer by inserting a text box and the answer must include: Null hypothesis, Alternative hypothesis, Show answer (output table/summary table), and Conclusion based on the P value.

- (c) Because logistic regression predicts probabilities of outcomes, observations used to build a logistic regression model need not be independent. A. false: all observations must be independent B. true C. false: only observations with the same outcome need to be independent I ANSWERED: A. false: all observations must be independent. (This was marked wrong but I have no idea why. Isn't this a basic assumption of logistic regression)arrow_forwardBusiness discussarrow_forwardSpam filters are built on principles similar to those used in logistic regression. We fit a probability that each message is spam or not spam. We have several variables for each email. Here are a few: to_multiple=1 if there are multiple recipients, winner=1 if the word 'winner' appears in the subject line, format=1 if the email is poorly formatted, re_subj=1 if "re" appears in the subject line.
