In 2017, it was estimated that 45% of U.S. households purchased groceries at convenience stores. Consider a follow-up study focusing on the last calendar year. What sample size is needed to estimate the population proportion of U.S. households purchasing groceries at convenience stores to within a margin of error of 0.02 with 90% confidence.
Samples of 400 printed circuit boards were selected from each of two productionlines A and B. Line A produced 40 defectives, and line B produced 80 defectives.Using an estimate for each line, do the data indicate that the two lines produce adifferent fraction of defective circuit boards, with 97% confidence.
From a random sample of six students in an introductory finance class that uses group-learning techniques, the mean examination score was found to be 76.12 and the sample standard deviation was 2.53. For an independent random sample of nine students in another introductory finance class that does not use group learning techniques, the sample mean and standard deviation of exam scores were 74.61 and 8.61, respectively. Estimate with 95% confidence the difference between the two population mean scores; do not assume equal population variances.

Each year, more than 2 million people in the United States become infected with bacteria that are resistant to antibiotics. In particular, the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention have launched studies of drug-resistant gonorrhea.† Suppose that, of 189 cases tested in a certain state, 12 were found to be drug-resistant. Suppose also that, of 429 cases tested in another state, 8 were found to be drug-resistant. Do these data suggest a statistically significant difference between the proportions of drug-resistant cases in the two states? Use a 0.02 level of significance. (Let p1 = the population proportion of drug-resistant cases in the first state, and let p2 = the population proportion of drug resistant cases in the second state.) State the null and alternative hypotheses. (Enter != for ≠ as needed.) H0: ______ Ha: ______ Find the value of the test statistic. (Round your answer to two decimal places.) = What is the p-value?

A researcher is interested in examining the difference in the average egg incubation temperature of two lizards in North Carolina, the native green anoles versus the invasive brown anoles. To investigate this, she takes two random samples from both of the lizard populations and calculates the average egg incubation temperature, standard deviation, and sample size for each of the two samples. The average incubation temperature for the 25 sampled brown anoles is 83.2 degrees Fahrenheit, with a sample standard deviation of 20.2 degrees Fahrenheit. The average incubation temperature the 28 samples green anoles is 80.1 degrees Fahrenheit, with a sample standard deviation of 17.4 degrees Fahrenheit. She has also determined that the two samples do not exhibit strong skewness and appear approximately normal. Determine the standard error for the 99% confidence interval for the difference between the true mean incubation temperatures for the two different anole species, μ1−μ2. Give your…

Each year, more than 2 million people in the United States become infected with bacteria that are resistant to antibiotics. In particular, the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention have launched studies of drug-resistant gonorrhea.† Suppose that, of 221 cases tested in a certain state, 14 were found to be drug-resistant. Suppose also that, of 322 cases tested in another state, 6 were found to be drug-resistant. Do these data suggest a statistically significant difference between the proportions of drug-resistant cases in the two states? Use a 0.02 level of significance. (Let p1 = the population proportion of drug-resistant cases in the first state, and let p2 = the population proportion of drug resistant cases in the second state.) 1) State the null and alternative hypotheses. (Enter != for ≠ as needed.) 2) What is the test statistic & P-value? 3) what is the conclusion? A) Reject H0. There is a significant difference in drug resistance between the two states.
