In a public opinion survey, 60 out of a sample of 100 high-income voters and 40 out of a sample of 75 low-income voters supported a decrease in value-added tax, VAT. Conclude at the 5% level of significance that the population of voters favouring a VAT decrease differs between high- and low-income voters. (Where p1 is the proportion of all high-income voters who supported a decrease in VAT; p2 is the same for the low-income voters). The rejection region to test the above hypothesis at the 5% significance level (rounded off to two decimals) is: A. T < -1.96 B. T < -1.64 or Z > 1.64 C. Z < -1.96 or Z > 1.96 D. Z < -1.64 E.

In a random sample of 320 cars driven at low altitudes, 50 of them exceeded a standard of 10 grams of particulate pollution per gallon of fuel consumed. In an independent random sample of 135 cars driven at high altitudes, 17 of them exceeded the standard. Can you conclude that the proportion of high-altitude vehicles exceeding the standard is less than the proportion of low-altitude vehicles exceeding the standard? Let p1 denote the proportion of low-altitude vehicles exceeding the standard and p2 denote the proportion of high-altitude vehicles exceeding the standard. Use the =α0.10 level of significance and the P -value method with the TI-84 Plus calculator. please state all steps to the p method clearly!
After attending a church cookout, a number of the attendees are admitted to the emergency room with nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. After discovering all the individuals admitted to the ER consumed the egg salad at the event, the leftover egg salad was tested and found to be positive for salmonella. If 83 individuals consumed the egg salad and 49 individuals were admitted to the ER with salmonella, what was the cumulative incidence of salmonella assuming that the 49 individuals admitted to the ER were the only ones to be affected by the bacteria? 0.041 0.059 0.410 0.590
A recent drug survey showed an increase in the use of drugs and alcohol among local high school seniors as compared to the national percent. Suppose that a survey of 100 local seniors and 100 national seniors is conducted to see if the proportion of drug and alcohol use is higher locally than nationally. Locally, 65 seniors reported using drugs or alcohol within the past month, while 60 national seniors reported using them.
In the recent Census, 3 percent of the U.S. population reported being two or more races. However, the percent varies tremendously from state to state. Suppose that two random surveys are conducted. In the first random survey, out of 1000 North Dakotans, only 9 people reported being of two or more races. In the second random survey, out of 500 Nevadans, 17 people reported being of two or more races. Conduct a hypothesis test to determine if the population percents are the same for the two states or if the percent for Nevada is statistically higher than for North Dakota. a. Is this a right-tailed, left-tailed, or two-tailed test? How do you know? b. What is the Random Variable of interest for this test? c. In words, define the Random Variable for this test. d. Which distribution (Normal or student's-t) would you use for this hypothesis test? Why did you choose that distribution?

in a certain city, 60% of the heads of household own the house in which they reside, and 80% of the heads of the household have full-time employment when considering what percentage of heads of household both own their home and have a full-time job, a student estimates that 48% of heads of household fit both requirements, stating that (0.60) (0.80)=0.48. is this student correct in his approach?
Globally, 35% of all ridged brittleshell tortoises have spots on their shells. A herpetologist in Citition collects a sample of 38 ridged brittlesell tortoises and finds that 16 of them have spots on their shells. The herpetologist would like to test the claim that the proportion of ridged brittleshell tortoises in Cititon with spots on their shells is greater than 35%. The herpetologist ends up rejecting the null hypothesis. If the actual proportion of ridged brittleshell tortoises in Cititon with spots on their shells is 41%, then what type of error, if any, has occurred? In the problem above, what is the test statistic?
In the Chernobyl nuclear accident it is estimated that 30,000 people received an average dose of 45 REM. For this population, using the linear hypothesis, how many "normal" deaths from cancer are expected and how many additional deaths from the radiation of the accident?
