In a survey of 1476 people, 1066 people said they voted in a recent presidential election. Voting records show that 70% of eligible voters actually did vote. Given that 70% of eligible voters actually did vote, (a) find the probability that among 1476 randomly selected voters, at least 1066 actually did vote. (b) What do the results from part (a) suggest? (a) P(X2 1066) = (Round to four decimal places as needed.) (b) What does the result from part (a) suggest? O A. People are being honest because the probability of P(x2 1066) is at least 1%. O B. Some people are being less than honest because P(x 2 1066) is at least 1%. OC. People are being honest because the probability of P(x2 1066) is less than 5%. O D. Some people are being less than honest because P(x2 1066) is less than 5%.

A city official claims that the proportion of all commuters who are in favor of an expanded public transportation system is 50%. A newspaper conducts a survey to determine whether this proportion is different from 50%. Out of 225 randomly chosen commuters, the survey finds that 99 of them reply yes when asked if they support an expanded public transportation system. Test the official’s claim at α= 0.05.
Nationally, at least 60% of Ph.D. students have paid assistantships. A collegedean feels that this is not true in his state, so he randomly selects 50 Ph.D.students and finds that 26 have assistantships. At α = 0.05, is the deancorrect?
A polling organization has been hired to conduct a survey to determine the proportion of people who are likely to support an upcoming ballot initiative. To help determine the size of the sample required for the main poll, a preliminary poll of 20 people is taken that yields the results below.

According to a recent report, 12% of all adults eat pizza with a knife and fork. A researcher believes this claimed value is incorrect. When she conducts her own survey of a random sample of adults, she finds that 8% of the adults in her sample report eating pizza with a knife and fork. Dividing 8 by 100 will give the researcher the

The television show Lett3rs has been successful for many years. That show recently had a share of 19, which means, that among the TV sets in use, 19% were tuned to Lett3rs. An advertiser wants to verify that 19% share value by conducting its own survey, and a pilot survey begins with 10 households have TV sets in use at the time of a Lett3rs broadcast. If at most one household is tuned to Lett3rs, does it appear that the 19% share value is wrong? (Hint: Is the occurrence of at most one household tuned to Lett3rs unusual?) A. no, it is not wrongB. yes, it is wrong

Suppose you asked a sample of individuals if they are a Republican, Democrat, or Independent and also asked them for their opinion (for or against) on the death penalty. Is this a one-way Chi-square or a two-way Chi-square problem? If you asked 400 students to state their preference between 5 flavors of ice cream, what would the expected numerical frequency (E) be for each flavor? If you asked 100 students to state their preference between 3 different fast-food restaurants, how many degrees of freedom would you have?

A real estate office wants to make a survey in a certain town, which has 50,000 households, to determine how far the head of household has to commute to work. A simple random sample of 1,000 households is chosen, the occupants are interviewed, and it is found that on average, the heads of the sample households commuted 8.7 miles to work; the SD of the distances was 9.0 miles. (All distances are one-way; if someone isn't working, the commute distance is defined to be 0.) Fill in the following blanks, rounding to 1 decimal place. And please input part b as lower bound to upper bound. (a) The average commute distance of all 50,000 heads of households in the town is estimated as _______ miles, and this estimate is likely to be off by _________ miles or so. (b) The 95%- confidence interval for the average commute distance of all heads of households in the town is from ________ to ___________ Fill in the blanks
A foreign car manufacturer advertises that its newest model, the Bullet, rarely stops at gas stations. In fact, they claimed that its EPA rating for highway driving is at least 32.5 mpg. However, the results of a recent independent study determined the mpg for 50 identical models of the Bullet, with these results: n = 50, x= 30.4 mpg, and s = 5.3 mpg.This report failed to offer any conclusion, and you have been asked to interpret these results by someone who has always felt that the 32.5 figure is too high. What would be your conclusion using a significance level of 5%?Z = 1.645
