1)Remove the four potential outliers of 0, 0, 8, and 20, and then obtain a new histogram without the outliers. Does the data appear to be normally distributed now? 2)Assuming that the four potential outliers of 0, 0, 8, and 20 are not recording errors, repeat the hypothesis test from part (c) (again setting up the hypothesis test and using either the critical value or p-value approach), and compare your results with that obtained in (c). Did you make a different conclusion? 3)Imagine you know have to make a recommendation/conclusion to the company that hired you: Assuming that the four potential outlies are not recording errors, and looking at the two results above, would you recommend using the first test with the outliers or the second test with the outliers removed? There is no right or wrong answer here, I am interested in what you think and your reasoning.
In analyzing the consumption of cottage cheese by members of various occupational groups, the United Dairy Industry Association found that 326 of 837 professionals seldom or never ate cottage cheese, versus 220 of 489 white-collar workers and 522 of 1243 blue-collar workers (Sheet 53). Assuming independent samples, use the 0.03 level in testing the null hypothesis that the population proportions could be the same for the three occupational groups.

1) A cement producer, manufactures and then fills 40kg-bags of powder cement on twodistinct production tracks located in separate suburbs. To determine whether differencesexist between the average fill rates for the two tracks, a random sample of 25 bags fromTrack 1 and a random sample of 16 bags from Track 2 were recently selected. Each bag’sweight was measured and the following information measures from the samples arereported:Production ProductionTrack 1 Track 2n1 = 25 n2 = 16x2 = 40.02 x1 = 39.87 s1 = 0.59 s2 = 0.88 Supervision believes that the fill rates of the two tracks are normally distributed with equalvariances.Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the true mean difference between the twotracks.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------2) Two independent simple random samples were selected from two normallydistributed populations with unequal variances yielded the following information:Sample 1…
The National Institute of Mental Health published an article stating that in any one-year period, approximately 9.5 percent of American adults suffer from depression or a depressive illness. Suppose that in a survey of 100 people in a certain town, seven of them suffered from depression or a depressive illness. Conduct a hypothesis test to determine if the true proportion of people in that town suffering from depression or a depressive illness is lower than the percent in the general adult American population. find the p value
Let p1 and p2 be the respective proportions of women with iron-deficiency anemia in each of two developing countries. A random sample of 1900 women from the first country yielded 513 women with iron-deficiency anemia, and an independently chosen, random sample of 1700 women from the second country yielded 515 women with iron-deficiency anemia. Can we conclude, at the 0.10 level of significance, that the proportion of women with anemia in the first country is less than the proportion of women with anemia in the second country? Perform a one-tailed test. Then complete the parts below.Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places and round your answers as specified in the parts below. a. State the null hypothesis H0 and the alternative hypothesis H1. b. Find the values of the test statistic. c. FInd the p-value. d. Can we conclude that the proportion of women with anemia in the first country is less than the proportion of women with anemia in the second country?

In a recent study of a random sample of 113 people, 92 reported dreaming in color. In the 1940’s, the proportion of people who reported dreaming in color was 29%. Is there evidence to show that the proportion of people who dream in color is different than the proportion in the 1940’s? What is the critical value for this hypothesis test?

A corporation randomly selects 150 salespeople and finds that 66% who have never taken a self-improvement course would like such a course. The firm did a similar study 10 years ago in which 60% of a random sample of 160 salespeople wanted a self-improvement course. The groups are assumed to be independent random samples. Let π1 and π2 represent the true proportion of workers who would like to attend a self-improvement course in the recent study and the past study, respectively. What is/are the critical value(s) when performing a Z test on whether population proportions are different if α=0.05? Round to three decimal places. A. −1.960 B. ±1.960 C. ±1.645 D. ±2.080

In a study of high school students at least 16 years of age, researchers obtained the survey results summarized in the table below (based on data from “Texting While Driving and Other Risk Motor Vehicle Behaviors Among U.S. High School Students” by O’Malley, Shults, and Eaton, Pediatrics, Vol. 131, No.6). State the null and alternative hypotheses. Assuming independence, what are the expected frequencies for each of these variables? What is the value of the X2 statistic?
