Takeout Food A magazine article reported that 12% of adults buy takeout food every day. A fast-food restaurant owner surveyed 210 customers and found that 39 said that they purchased takeout food every day. At =α0.10 is there evidence to believe the article's claim? Use the critical value method with tables. Do not round intermediate steps.

A researcher collects data that represents the average number of hours of sleep in the last two nights by 8 depressed patients and 9 non-depressed patients. The researcher is interested in whether the two groups reliably differ in the amount of sleep they get. Use Jamovi to calculate t-obt and the p value.
Your company manufactures plastic wrap for food storage. The tear resistance of the wrap, denoted by X, must be controlled so that the wrap can be torn off the roll without too much effort but it does not tear too easily when in use. In a series of tests (see data table below), 15 rolls of wrap are made under carefully controlled conditions and the tear resistance of each roll is measured. The results are used as the basis of a quality assurance specification. If X for a subsequently produced roll falls more than two standard deviations away from the test period average, the process is declared out of specification and production is suspended for routine maintenance.

Infants, even newborns, prefer to look at attractive faces compared to less attractive faces (Slater, et al., 1998). In the study, infants from 1 to 6 days old were shown two photographs of women’s faces. Previously, a group of adults had rated one of the faces as significantly more attractive than the other. The babies were positioned in front of a screen on which the photographs were presented. The pair of faces remained on the screen until the baby accumulated a total of 20 seconds of looking at one or the other. The number of seconds looking at the attractive face was recorded for each infant. Suppose that the study used a sample of n = 9 infants and the data produced an average of M = 13 for the attractive face with an estimated standard error sM= 1 (SS = 72). If there were no preference, the 20 seconds should be divided equally between the two photographs. Note that all the available information comes from the sample. Specifically, we do not know the population mean or the…

Natalie conducted a study on the effects of triclosan on three algae populations. She collected an algae sample from three different ponds, counted the number of algae cells present in the sample, and then exposed them to a 5 ppm aqueous solution of triclosan and re-counted the number of algae cells in each sample. Using a paired t-test, she obtained a p-value of 0.083 when comparing the original algae population sizes to the population sizes after exposure to triclosan. Natalie concluded that triclosan is toxic to algae because her data for the three samples showed a trend toward a reduction in population size. What could Natalie do to show a statistically significant effect of triclosan on algae population size? Justify your response.
According to the February 2008 Federal Trade Commission report on consumer fraud and identity theft, 23% of all complaints in 2007 were for identity theft. In that year, Alaska had 321 complaints of identity theft out of 1,432 consumer complaints ("Consumer fraud and," 2008). Does this data provide enough evidence to show that Alaska had a lower proportion of identity theft than 23%? Test at the 5% level. (v) Do values for np and nq both exceed 5?
