- What is meant by the sample space of an experiment?Two separate after-school programs for at-risk teenagers have been implemented in the city of Redland. One is a big-brother/big-sister mentoring program, in which adult volunteers are paired with troubled teenages. The second involves extracurricular team sports competitions. In terms of the percentage change in crimes reported to the police over a one-year period, were the programs successful? The results are for random samples of 18 neighborhoods drawn from the entire city.In order to compare the life expectancies of three different brands of tires, 5 tires of each brand were randomly selected and were subjected to standard wear-testing procedures.

- With domestic sources of building supplies running low several years ago, roughly 60,000 homes were built with imported Chinese drywall. According to an article federal investigators identified a strong association between chemicals in the drywall and electrical problems, and there is also strong evidence of respiratory difficulties due to the emission of hydrogen sulfide gas. An extensive examination of 57 homes found that 47 had such problems. Suppose these 57 were randomly sampled from the population of all homes having Chinese drywall. Calculate the test statistic and determine the P-value. (Round your test statistic to two decimal places and your P-value to four decimal places.) z = P-value = (b) Calculate a lower confidence bound using a confidence level of 99% for the percentage of all such homes that have electrical/environmental problems. (Round your answer to one decimal place.) (c) If it is actually the case that 80% of all such homes have problems, how…A certain HMO is attempting to show the benefits of managed care to an insurance company. The HMO believes that certain types of doctors are more cost-effective than others. One theory is that certification level is an important factor in measuring the cost-effectiveness of physicians. To investigate this, the HMO obtained independent random samples of 27 physicians from each of the three certification levels—Board certified (C); Uncertified, board eligible (E); and Uncertified, board ineligible (I)—and recorded the total per-member, per-month charges for each (a total of 27 physicians). In order to compare the mean charges for the three groups, the data will be subjected to an analysis of variance. Write the null hypothesis tested by the ANOVA.Women in the Labor Force. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) summarizes data on labor-force participation rates in OECD in Figures. Independent simple random samples were taken of 300 U.S.women and 250 Canadian women. Of the U.S. women, 215 were found to be in the labor force; of the Canadian women, 186 were found to be in the labor force. a. At the 5% significance level, do the data suggest that there is a difference between the labor-force participation rates of U.S. and Canadian women?b. Find and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the difference between the labor-force participation rates of U.S. and Canadian women.
