The owner of a chain of mini-markets wants to compare the sales performance of two of her stores, Store 1 and Store 2. Though the two stores have been comparable in the past, the owner has made several improvements to Store 1 and wishes to see if the improvements have made Store 1 more popular than 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 8 days, she records the sales (in dollars) for each store on these days, as shown in the table below. Based on these data, can the owner conclude, at the 0.05 level of significance, that the mean daily sales of Store 1 exceeds that of Store 2? Answer this question by performing a hypothesis test regarding μd (which is μ with a letter "d" subscript), the population mean daily sales difference between the two stores. Assume that this population of…

You are the marketing director for a company that manufactures bodybuilding supplements and you are planning to run ads in Sports Illustrated and GQ Magazine. Based on readership data, you estimate that each one-page ad in Sports Illustrated will be read by 670,000 people in your target group, while each one-page ad in GQ will be read by 170,000. You would like your ads to be read by at least 3 million people in the target group and, to ensure the broadest possible audience, you would like to place at least three full-page ads in each magazine. Draw the feasible region that shows how many pages you can purchase in each magazine. (Let x be the number of full-page ads in Sports Illustrated and let y be the number of full-page ads in GQ Magazine.) Find the corner points of the region. (Round each coordinate to the nearest whole number. If an answer does not exist, enter DNE.) smaller x-value(x, y) = larger x-value(x, y) =
A health researcher studying child birth is interested in the possible effect that smoking by the mother during pregnancy has on the baby's birth weight. To investigate, the researcher conducts an observational study by reviewing 400 records of women in their twenties who have recently given birth for the first time. For each record, he notes whether or not the woman smoked during pregnancy and the baby's birth weight, in addition to the woman's education level, and age. From the data, the researcher creates two groups: women in their twenties who smoked during pregnancy and women in their twenties who did not smoke during pregnancy. Then he compares the average birth weight between the two groups. (a)Why might the researcher have chosen to perform an observational study (by gathering information from past records) and not a randomized experiment (by assigning pregnant women to either the smoking or nonsmoking group at random)? Choose the best answer from the choices below. In a…
According to a Gallup poll in October 2015, having young children at home greatly influences whether women in the U.S. prefer to stay at home or work outside of it. More than half of women, 56%, who have a child younger than 18 would ideally like to stay home and care for their house and family, while 58% of those without young children would rather work outside the home. Having young children makes little difference in men's preferences, with close to three-quarters preferring to work regardless of their parenting status. Gallup states that their method has a margin of error of 0.031.(a) Give a point estimate for the proportion of all US women with a child under 18 that would like to stay at home.(b) Give an interval estimate for the proportion of all US women with a child under 18 that would like to stay at home. Use three decimal places in your answer.( , )(c) What is the difference between a point estimate and an interval estimate?
