Use the results from a survey of a simple random sample of 1045 adults. Among the 1045 respondents, 92% rated themselves as above average drivers. We want to test the claim that 4/5 of adults rate themselves as above average drivers. Complete parts (a) through (c).
a. Identify the actual number of respondents who rated themselves as above average drivers.
Exercises 1–5 refer to the sample data in the following table, which summarizes the last digits of the heights (cm) of 300 randomly selected subjects (from Data Set 1 “Body Data” in Appendix B). Assume that we want to use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the data are from a population having the property that the last digits are all equally likely.
What are the null and alternative hypotheses corresponding to the stated claim?
Sophomore, junior, and senior students at a high school will be surveyed regarding a potential increase in the extracurricular student activities fee. There are three possible responses to the survey question - agree with the increase, do not agree with the increase, or no opinion. A chi-square test will be conducted to determine whether the response to this question is independent of the class in which the student is a member. How many degrees of freedom should the chi-square test have?
