A sample of 100 college students is selected from all students registered at a certain college, and it turns out that 38 of them participate in intramural sports. True or false: a) The proportion of students at this college who participate in intramural sports is 0.38. b) The proportion of students at this college who participate in intramural sports is likely to be close to 0.38, but not equal to 0.38.
In a random sample of 320 cars driven at low altitudes, 50 of them exceeded a standard of 10 grams of particulate pollution per gallon of fuel consumed. In an independent random sample of 135 cars driven at high altitudes, 17 of them exceeded the standard. Can you conclude that the proportion of high-altitude vehicles exceeding the standard is less than the proportion of low-altitude vehicles exceeding the standard? Let p1 denote the proportion of low-altitude vehicles exceeding the standard and p2 denote the proportion of high-altitude vehicles exceeding the standard. Use the =α0.10 level of significance and the P -value method with the TI-84 Plus calculator. please state all steps to the p method clearly!
In a clinical study, a random sample of 540 participants agree to have their blood drawn, which is to be examined for the presence of antibodies against a certain contagious disease. It is found in 22% of the blood samples, which experimenters hope to extrapolate to the general population. From this random sample, 10 participants' blood samples are selected at random. If X is the number of samples out of the 10 who have these antibodies, what can we say about X? A. The sample size is not large enough for us to approximate X using a normal distribution B.The expected value of X is 22 C. X can be approximated using a normal distribution in lieu of a binomial distribution D. X has a sampling distribution that is normal
Resistors labeled as 100 Ω are purchased from two different vendors. The specification for this type of resistor is that its actual resistance be within 5% of its labeled resistance. In a sample of 180 resistors from vendor A, 150 of them met the specification. In a sample of 270 resistors purchased from vendor B, 233 of them met the specification. Vendor A is the current supplier, but if the data demonstrate convincingly that a greater proportion of the resistors from vendor B meet the specification, a change will be made. a) State the appropriate null and alternate hypotheses. b) Find the P-value. c) Should a change be made?
Resistors labeled as 100 Ω are purchased from two different vendors. The specification for this type of resistor is that its actual resistance be within 5% of its labeled resistance. In a sample of 180 resistors from vendor A, 149 of them met the specification. In a sample of 270 resistors purchased from vendor B, 233 of them met the specification. Vendor A is the current supplier, but if the data demonstrate convincingly that a greater proportion of the resistors from vendor B meet the specification, a change will be made. P-value?
For conducting a two-tailed hypothesis test with a certain data set, using the smaller of n1-1 and n2-1 for the degrees of freedom results in df=11, and the corresponding critical values are t=+-2.201. Using the formula for the exact degrees of freedom results in df=19.063, and the corresponding critical values are t=+-2.093. How is using the critical values of t=+-2.201 more "conservative" than using the critical values of +- 2.093?

A pharmaceutical company has developed a new drug to help relieve acid reflux. However, as with all new drugs, there are concerns about adverse side effects. To check this, the company administers the drug to n randomly chosen people with acid reflux, and it finds that k of them experience adverse side effects. The company hopes to reject the null hypothesis that the proportion of drug-takers who experience adverse side effects is at least 0.5%. Which of the following is true? a. If n=1,250 and k=1, this is enough evidence to reject the null at the 1% level. b. If n=1,000 and k=3, this is enough evidence to reject the null at the 10% level. c. If n=4,000 and k=9, this is enough evidence to reject the null at the 1% level. d. If n=1,600 and k=4, this is enough evidence to reject the null at the 5% level.
