Suppose you want to estimate the difference between two population proportions correct to within 0.03 with probability 0.90. If prior information suggests that p1 = 0.4 and p2 * 0.8, and you want to select independent random samples of equal size from the populations, how large should the sample sizes be? A) n =n2 - 1203 C) n -n2 - 963 B) nị -n2 = 1925 D) n - n2 = 1708

you have a random sample of 60 and in terms of age groups was stratified as follows: 35 are youth (below 35yrs) ,15 are medium aged adults between 35-65yrs and 10 are elderly (above 65yrs).Your research outcome is to determine their attitude regarding compulsory putting on of masks wherever in public during lifting up of COVID -19 Lockdown. You carry out a survey to determine the above outcome and come up with the following observations. Those with positive attitude are 34 detailed as follows: Youth 20, medium adults 9 and elderly 5. Those with negative attitude were stratified as follows:15 youth,6 medium adults and 5 elderly. Prove/ disapprove if there is any significant association between attitude regarding compulsory putting on of masks wherever in public

In order to determine whether there are significant differences in the durability of three makes of computers, samples of size n=5 are selected from each make and the frequency of repair during the first year of purchase is observed. The results are as given in the adjoining table. In view of the data, what conclusions can you draw?
Imagine you have a random sample of 60 and in terms of age groups was stratified as follows: 35 are youth (below 35yrs) ,15 are medium aged adults between 35-65yrs and 10 are elderly (above 65yrs).Your research outcome is to determine their attitude regarding compulsory putting on of masks wherever in public during lifting up of COVID -19 Lockdown. You carry out a survey to determine the above outcome and come up with the following observations. Those with positive attitude are 34 detailed as follows: Youth 20, medium adults 9 and elderly 5. Those with negative attitude were stratified as follows:15 youth,6 medium adults and 5 elderly. (i) Sketch a 3 by 2 contingency summary of this data (ii) State the hypothesis of this data, giving your α-level and degree of freedom (iii) Prove/ disapprove if there is any significant association between attitude regarding compulsory putting on of masks wherever in public Critical t-value from the chi-square distribution is 5.991
The table below summarizes data from a survey of a sample of women. Using a 0.01significance level, and assuming that the sample sizes of 800 men and 300 women are predetermined, test the claim that the proportions of agree/disagree responses are the same for subjects interviewed by men and the subjects interviewed by women. Does it appear that the gender of the interviewer affected the responses of women? Gender of Interviewer Man Woman Women who agree 498 247 Women who disagree 302 53 Compute the test statistic, rounding to three decimal places. Find the critical value(s). (Round to three decimal places) What is the conclusion based on the hypothesis test?

A report in LTO stated that the average age of taxis in the Philippines is 9 years. An operations manager of a large taxi company selects a sample of 40 taxis and finds the average age of the taxis is 8.2 years. The σ of the population is 2.3 years. At ? = 0.05, can it be concluded that the average age of the taxis in his company is less than the national average?
