Professor Walt is up for tenure, and wishes to submit a portfolio of written student evaluations as evidence of his good teaching. He begins by grouping all the evaluations into four categories: good reviews, bad reviews (a typical one being "GET RID OF WALT! THE MAN CAN'T TEACH!"), mediocre reviews (such as "I suppose he's OK, given the general quality of teaching at this college"), and reviews left blank. When he tallies up the piles, Walt gets a little worried: There are 280 more bad reviews than good ones and only half as many blank reviews as bad ones. The good reviews and blank reviews together total 173. On an impulse, he decides to even up the piles a little by removing 276 of the bad reviews, and this leaves him with a total of 415 reviews of all types. How many of each category of reviews were there originally? ____ good reviews ____bad reviews ____mediocre reviews ____blank reviews
A researcher wants to be sure that the sample in her study is not unrepresentative of the distribution of ethnic groups in her community. Her sample includes 300 whites, 80 African Americans, 100 Latinos, 40Asians, and 80 others. In her community, according to census records, there are 48% whites, 12% African Americans, 18% Latinos, 9% Asians, and 13% others. Is her sample unrepresentative of the population in her community? (Use the .05 level.) Carry out the steps of hypothesis testing for a chi-square test forgoodness of fit. Explain your answer to a person who has never taken a course in statistics.

Perception and Reality In a presidential election, 611 randomly selected voters were surveyed, and 308 of them said that they voted for the winning candidate (based on data from ICR Survey Research Group). The actual percentage of votes for the winning candidate was 43%. Assume that 43% of voters actually did vote for the winning candidate, and assume that 611 voters are randomly selected. a. Use the range rule of thumb to identify the limits separating values that are significantly low and those that are significantly high. Based on the results, is the 308 voters who said that they voted for the winner significantly high? b. Find the probability of exactly 308 voters who actually voted for the winner. c. Find the probability of 308 or more voters who actually voted for the winner. d. Which probability is relevant for determining whether the value of 308 voters is significantly high: the probability from part (b) or part (c)? Based on the relevant probability, is the result of 308…
