Maureen Mcllvoy, owner and CEO of a mail order business for wind surfing equipment and supplies, is reviewing the order filling operations at her warehouses. Her goal is 100% of orders shipped within 24 hours. In previous years, neither warehouse has achieved the goal, but the East Coast Warehouse has consistently out-performed the West Coast Warehouse. Her staff randomly selected 200 orders from the West Coast Warehouse (population 1) and 400 orders from the East Coast Warehouse (population 2), and reports that 190 of the West Coast Orders were shipped within 24 hours, and the East Coast Warehouse shipped 356 orders within 24 hours. Assuming a = 0.05, the observed z value is O -3.15 O 2.42 O 1.53 O 0.95 O 1.05

Economist Arthur Laffer suggests that beyond a certain point, high tax rates depress the economy so much that they actually reduce tax revenues. He proposed tax reductions as a means of stimulating the economy and, as a result, increase tax revenues. In the mid 1990’s Time magazine reported that 30% of the US Congress supported a tax cut as a means of stimulating the economy and increasing tax revenues. Suppose at that time 5 members of congress were randomly selected for an interview and asked whether they supported a tax cut to stimulate the economy. 1.2) Find the probability that at least three of the five members of congress who were interviewed were in favour of a tax cut (rounded off to four decimals).
An article in the journal Applied Nutritional Investigation reported the results of a comparison of two different weight-loss programs (Liao, 2007). In the study, obese participants were randomly assigned to one of two groups and the percent of body fat loss was recorded. The soy group, a low-calorie group that ate only soy-based proteins (M= 2.30, s=0.55) , while the traditional group, a low-calorie group that received 2/3 of their protein from animal products and 1/3 from plant products (M= 1.22, s=0.50). If sM1–M2 = 0.3, s2pooled = 0.275, n1 = 6, n2 = 6 is there a difference between the two diets. Use alpha of .05 anda two-tailed test to complete the 4 steps of hypothesis testing.
On Sunday, November 6, 2005, the popular television drama The West Wing held a live debate between two fictional candidates for president. Immediately afterward, an MSNBC/Zogby poll found that 54% favored Democratic Congressman Matt Santos, played by Jimmy Smits, whereas 38% favored Republican Senator Arnold Vinick, played by Alan Alda. The poll was conducted online with a random sample of respondents; the Zogby company screened the online respondents to try to ensure they were representative of the population of 1208 adult Americans. b. Produce and interpret a 90% confidence interval for the population proportion who favored Santos.Round your answers to four decimal places. (______,_____)

Researchers investigated whether elementary school students from families in need would choose healthier lunch options if offered. A random sample of students receiving free-and-reduced lunch at five different Connecticut elementary schools were offered a choice between 2 lunch options. One was a typical school lunch prepared off and warmed on campus, while the other was a healthier school lunch made on campus from a variety of fruits, vegetables, and lean protein. For each child, researchers kept track of whether or not the child selected the healthier option. The research question was whether of not the healthier option would be selected less than the typical school lunch. More specifically, we will investigate whether the sample data provide strong evidence that the heather lunch is picked less than 50% of the time? The researchers found in their sample of 294 students that 134 picked the healthier option. The value of the sample proportion who selected the candy is therefore…
The local government in Leeds is worried about the increasing amount of waste households in its city are producing. In order to gain a better understanding of what factors influence the amount of waste each household produces, consultants have gathered data from a random sample of 400 households on their average weekly waste, alongside information on the number of people living in the household, household income, whether anyone in the household works from home and whether the household has signed up to the ‘Make Leeds Greener’ initiative. The consultants have provided you with the following OLS output and asked you to provide a full discussion and interpretation of the statistical output. Where the dependent variable: Household average weekly waste (kgs) and the independent variables are: Household size - number of people living in the household; Household Income - salary in £000’s; Home work - someone working from home (1) ; no one working from home (0); Concern for Environment -…
In the recent census, three percent of the U.S. population reported being two or more races. However, the percent varies tremendously from state to state. Suppose 2 random surveys are conducted. In the first random survey, out of 1,000 north dakotans, 9 people reported being of two or more races. In a second random survey, out of 500 nevadans, 17 people reported being of 2 or more races. Conduct a hypothesis test to determine if the proportions are the same for the two states or if the proportion for Nevada is statistically different than that of north Dakota.
A purchaser of alarm clocks buys them in lots of size 10. It is his policy to inspect 3 clocks randomlyfrom a lot and to accept the lot only if all 3 are nondefective. If 30 percent of the lots have 4 defectiveclocks and 70 percent have only 1, what proportion of lots does the purchaser reject?
The Bath Heritage Days, which take place in Bath, Maine, have been popular for, amongother things, an eating contest. In 2009, the contest switched from blueberry pie to aWhoopie Pie (www.timesrecord.com), which consists of two large, chocolate cake–likecookies filled with a large amount of vanilla cream. Sixty-five randomly selected adultsare chosen to eat a 1-pound Whoopie Pie, and the average time for 59 adults (out of these65) is 127.10 seconds. Based on other Whoopie Pie–eating contests throughout theUnited States, suppose that the standard deviation of the times taken by all adults toconsume 1-pound Whoopie pies are known to be 23.80 seconds. Find the p-value for thetest of hypothesis with the alternative hypothes is that the mean time to eat a 1-poundWhoopie Pie is more than 2 minutes. Will you reject the null hypothesis at Alpha =0.01?Explain
The owner of a chain of mini-markets wants to compare the sales performance of two of her stores, Store 1 and Store 2. Sales can vary considerably depending on the day of the week and the season of the year, so she decides to eliminate such effects by making sure to record each store's sales on the same sample of days. After choosing a random sample of 12 days, she records the sales (in dollars) for each store on these days, as shown in the table below. Day 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 Store 1 504 909 591 658 232 697 236 425 659 625 737 772 Store 2 298 845 660 635 31 572 400 455 745 554 518 753 Difference(Store 1 - Store 2) 206 64 −69 23 201 125 −164 −30 −86 71 219 19 Send data to calculator Based on these data, can the owner conclude, at the 0.05 level of…
