A nonprofit analyst seeks to determine which variables should be used to predict nonprofit charitable commitment, a nonprofit organization commitment to its charitable purpose. Two independent variables under consideration are Revenue of total revenue, in billions of dollars, as a measure of nonprofit size X, and Efficiency, a measurement of the percent of private donations remaining after fundraising expenses as a measure of nonprofit fundraising efficiency X2. The deper Commitment, a measurement of the percent of total expenses that are allocated directly to charitable services. Both variables X, and Y are encoded as percents. Data are collected from a random sample of 99 nonprofit organizations, with provided in the accompanying table. Complete parts (a) through (c) below. Click the icon to view the table of results. a. State the multiple regression equation.

Assume that last year in a particular state with 700000 children there were 1471 children out of 32500 in a random sample who were diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder. Nationally, 1 out of 88 children are diagnosed with ASD. Is there sufficient data to show that the incident rate of ASD is higher in that state than nationally? Test at the 1% level.
Assume that anxiety scores as measured by an anxiety assessment inventory arenormally distributed with μ = 20 and σ = 4. A sample of 4 patients who areundergoing treatment for anxiety is randomly selected, and their mean anxiety scoreX = 22. Is the average anxiety score from patients who are under treatmentsignificantly different from 20? Assume a = .10.
A health insurance company in country A sells policies to tourists who intend to visit the US for less than 3 months. To limit its financial exposure, it requires applicants to undertake a physical examination and meet specified criteria for different tests. To simplify the problem, let us assume that only one test is done and it measures cholesterol level of the applicant. Historical records in country A indicate that cholesterol level is normally distributed with a mean of 225 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) and a standard deviation of 39.5 mg/dL. High cholesterol levels increase the risk of a cardiovascular incident, for which the company may need to make major insurance payouts. The premium charged is a flat $3000/person for those who qualify. For planning purposes, assume the company will get 100,000 applications in a particular year. [show your calculations for all parts] a. The current threshold T for cholesterol is set by the company at 250 mg/dL. Anyone whose test result is…
A new cream that advertises that it can reduce wrinkles and improve skin was subject to a recent study. A sample of 4949 women over the age of 50 used the new cream for 6 months. Of those 4949 women, 3333 of them reported skin improvement(as judged by a dermatologist). Is this evidence that the cream will improve the skin of more than 6060% of women over the age of 50?

The incidence of a certain type of chromosome defect inthe U.S. adult male population is believed to be 1 in 75.A random sample of 800 individuals in U.S. penal institutionsreveals 16 who have such defects. Can it be concludedthat the incidence rate of this defect among prisonersdiffers from the presumed rate for the entire adultmale population?

A doctor's office believes the number of flu cases is decreasing. The doctor's office would like to test the claim that the average number of flu cases per day at the doctor's office is under 6 cases. Using the computed test statistic of −1.90 and the critical value of −1.28, is there enough evidence for the doctor's office to reject the null hypothesis? Use the graph below to interpret the critical value. First select the appropriate test type (left-, right-, or two-tailed), then plot the points along the x-axis (for the critical value and test statistic), and use them to choose the appropriate interpretation. powered by $$z=−0.62 Rejection region Move the blue dot to choose the appropriate test Test Statistic 1.24 Select the correct answer below: Yes. There is sufficient evidence for the doctor's office to reject the null hypothesis because the critical valuefalls in the rejection region. No. There is NOT sufficient evidence for the doctor's office to reject the null hypothesis…
Ophelia O'Brien, VP of Consumer Credit of American First Banks (AFB), monitors the default rate on personal loans at the AFB member banks. One of her standards is "no more than 5% of personal loans should be in default." On each Friday, the default rate is calculated for a sample of 500 personal loans. Last Friday's sample contained 30 defaulted loans. Using = 0.10, the observed z value is
A tax accountant would like to test the claim that the proportion of individuals who owe when filing their taxes is less than 0.20. If the z− test statistic was calculated as z=−2.11, does the tax accountant have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis? Assume α=0.005. Move the blue dot to choose the appropriate test (left-, right, or two-tailed). Then, use the graph below to show the test statistic, p-value, and the rejection region to make a conclusion about the hypothesis test. powered by Move the blue dot to choose the appropriate test α=0.01 α=0.025 α=0.05 α=0.1 Significance level = 0.01 Select the correct answer below: There is enough evidence to suggest the proportion of individuals who owe when filing their taxes is less than 0.20. There is not enough evidence to suggest the proportion of individuals who owe when filing their taxes is less than 0.20. There is enough evidence to suggest the proportion of individuals who owe when filing their taxes is greater than 0.20.…
A researcher is wondering whether the smoking habits of young adults (18-25 years of age) in a certain city in the U.S. arethe same as the proportion of the general population of young adults in the U.S. A recent study stated that the proportionof young adults who reported smoking at least twice a week or more in the last month was 0.16. The researcher collecteddata from a random sample of 75 adults in the city of interest. State the hypotheses to be tested for this study. Also, identify which hypothesis is the claim.

An inventor, working at a science tech lab, believes innovations in satellites are increasing. The inventor would like to test the claim that the average number of new ideas for satellite development per month at the science tech lab is over 60 new ideas. Using the computed test statistic of 1.05 and the critical value of 1.28, is there enough evidence for the inventor to reject the null hypothesis? Use the graph below to interpret the critical value. First select the appropriate test type (left-, right-, or two- tailed), then plot the points along the x-axis (for the critical value and test statistic), and use them to choose the appropriate interpretation.
a manufacturer of choclate candies use machines to pack candies as they move along a filling line. although the packages are labelled as 8 ounces the company wants the packages to contain 8.17 ounces so that virtually none of pakages contain less than 8 ounces. a sample of 60 ounces is a selected periodically and the packaging process is stoped if there is evidence that mean amount paking is different from 8.17 ounces suppose that in a particular sample of 50 pakages the mean amount dispensed is 8.159 ounces with a sample standard deviation of 0.051 ounces. is there evidence population mean amount is different from 8.17 ounces.( use a significance level of 0.05 ) . determine p value and interpret its meaning according to dr puspendra classes statistics
