Egyptian fruit bats in the wild commonly eat loquats, figs and wild dates. A researcher wanted to see whether Egyptian fruit bats showed any preference among these three types of fruit. To test that, the researcher collected a sample of 60 fruit bats. Each bat was given an opportunity to select one of the three types of fruit, and its choicewas recorded. The following frequencies were observed:
Loquats Figs Wild dates
12 25 23
Another researcher wanted to use the data above to test whether there was a
relationship between the bats’ food preference and their sex (male/female). Which
statistical test should this researcher use to answer her question? Explain your answer

- If the 2412 leaves are not a random sample, but the researchers treated the 2412 leaves as a random sample, this most likely made the data more: accurate, but not precise precise, but not accurate neither both accurate and precisearrow_forwardThe results of a survey of 150 students about the type of movie they prefer are shown in the two-way frequency table.

The artide also gave Information on the age distribution of those who purchase lottery tickets. The following table is consistent with the values given in the article. Suppose that the data resulted from a random sample of 200 lattery ticket purchasers. Based on these sample data, is it reasonable to condude that ane or more af these three age groups buys a disproportionate share of lottery tickets? Use a chi-square goodness-of-fit test with a- 0.05. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

She invited student volunteers to perform an online memory task. The students saw a list of 60 words and were then asked to recognize a list of 10 words that were on the original list. Students were also asked to provide their GPAs. Consider the following data set, which was collected from student volunteers in 2009. The table gives the frequency for five intervals of scores on the number of correctly identified words. Use the dropdown menus to complete the table by filling in the missing values for the proportions and percentages.
