- More than one teacher has given the following advice: choose answer C when blindly guessing among four answers in a multiple choice test, since C is more often the correct answer than either A, B, or D. Suppose that we take a random sample of 600 multiple-choice test answers (the correct answers from the instructor's answer sheet) from introductory college courses and obtain the information summarized by the first row of numbers in the table below. These numbers are the observed frequencies for the categories A, B, C, and D for our sample of 600 correct answers. The second row of numbers contains the frequencies expected for a sample of 600 correct answers if a correct answer is equally likely to be A, B, C, or D. The bottom row of numbers contains the following value for each of the correct answer categories A, B, C, and D. −fOfE2 fE = −Observed frequencyExpected frequency2 Expected frequencyarrow_forwardA samll town installed a Blue streetlights, in part, to help reduce crime in particular areas.

(“Fatty Fish Consumption and Risk of Prostate Cancer,” Lancet, June 2001). A summary of the data is given in the table below. Fish Consumption No Prostate Cancers Prostate Cancers Never/Seldom 110 14 Small part of diet 2420 201 Moderate part of diet 2769 209 Large part of diet 507 42 A) If a patient is randomly selected, what is the probability that he/she had prostate cancer given that fish was never or seldom a part of the diet? Round your answer to three decimal places and include the leading zero. B) If a patient is randomly selected, what is the probability that s/he ate fish as a large part of their diet given that they had prostate cancer. Round your answer to two decimal places and include the leading zero.arrow_forward
- Since an instant replay system for tennis was introduced at a major tournament, men challenged 1434 referee calls, with the result that 417 of the calls were overturned. Women challenged 743 referee calls, and 217 of the calls were overturned. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that men and women have equal success in challenging calls.

Traits like openness to experience are related to positive financial outcomes and other traits are related to negative financial outcomes for their businesses. Suppose that a board of directors is interested in evaluating the personality of their leadership. Among a sample of n = 16 managers, the sample mean of the openness to experiences dimension of personality was M = 4.50. Assuming that u = 4.24 and o = 1.05 (Cobb-Clark & Schurer, 2012), use a two-tailed hypothesis test with a = .05 to test the hypothesis that this company's business leaders' openness to experience is different from the population.

At the end of the semester he asks his students to complete a survey where they indicate what format of the book they used. Of the 126 students, 71 said they bought a hard copy of the book, 30 said they printed it out from the web, and 25 said they read it online.(a) State the hypotheses for testing if the professor's predictions were inaccurate. Ho: pBuy = .6, pPrint=.25, pOnline=.15Ha: at least one of the claimed probabilities is different Ho: pBuy = .6, pPrint=.25, pOnline=.15Ha: at least one of the claimed probabilities is zero Ho: pBuy = .6, pPrint=.25, pOnline=.15Ha: all of the claimed probabilities are different Correct (b) How many students did the professor expect to buy the book, print the book, and read the book exclusively online?
