6.44 An entomologist is investigating which of two fumigants, F1 or F2, is more effective incontrollingparasities in tobacco plants. To compare the fumigants, nine fields of differingsoil characteristics, drainage, and amount of wind shield were planted with tobacco. Eachfield was then divided into two plots of equal area. Fumigant F1 was randomly assigned toone plot in each field and F2 to the other plot. Fifty plants were randomly selected from eachfield, 25 from each plot, and the numbers of parasites were counted. The data are in the followingtable.Field 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9Fumigant F1 77 40 11 31 28 50 53 26 33Fumigant F2 76 38 10 29 27 48 51 24 32a. What are the populations of interest?b. Do the data provide sufficient evidence to indicate a difference in the meanlevels of parasitesfor the two fumigants? Use a 5 .10. Report the p-value for theexperimental data.c.

Among college students, the proportion p who say they’re interested in their congressional district’s election results has traditionally been 65% . After a series of debates on campuses, a political scientist claims that the proportion of college students who say they’re interested in their district’s election results is more than 65% . A poll is commissioned, and 194 out of a random sample of 275 college students say they’re interested in their district’s election results. Is there enough evidence to support the political scientist's claim at the 0.10 level of significance? Perform a one-tailed test. Then complete the parts below. Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a) State the null hypothesis H0 and the alternative hypothesis H1 . H0: H1: (b) Determine the type of test statistic to use. ▼(Choose one) (c) Find the value of the test statistic. (Round…

Among students at a nearby college, the proportion who say they’re interested in their congressional district’s election results has traditionally been 70%. After a series of lackluster debates on campus, a political scientist claims that the proportion, p, of students at the college who say they’re interested in their districts election results is now less than 70%. A pill is commissioned, and 154 out of random sample of 230 students at the college say they’re interested in their districts election results. Is there enough evidence to support the political scientist’s claim at the 0.05 level of significance? Perform a one-tailed test. Then complete the parts below. Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places and round your answers as specified in the table.
The manager of a fast-food restaurant wants to reduce the proportion of drive-thru customers who have to wait longer than 2 minutes to receive their food after placing an order. Based on store records, the proportion of customers who had to wait longer than 2 minutes was p = 0.63. To reduce this proportion, the manager assigns an additional employee to drive-thru orders. During the next month, the manager collects a random sample of 250 drive-thru times and finds that 144 had to wait more than 2 minutes. The manager performs a test of the following hypotheses at the 0.10 significance level: H0: p=0.63p=0.63 Ha: p<0.63p<0.63 The Type II Error is 0.14. Find and interpret Power in context.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s American Community Survey in 2019 it was found that 33.13%of United States residents over the age of 25 had an educational attainment of a bachelor’sdegree or higher. In the District of Columbia, the percentage of residents over the age of 25 whohad attained a bachelor’s degree or higher was 59.67%. An investigator for the U.S. CensusBureau took a random sample of seven residents from the District of Columbia and asked themtheir highest educational degree they had obtained. a) Verify that the sample from the District of Columbia satisfies the conditions of thebinomial experiment. Write one sentence to check each requirement in context of theinvestigation.b) Assuming the sample from the District of Columbia is a binomial experiment, build theprobability distribution in a single table and include the table in your solutions. You maypresent this table horizontally or vertically and leave the probabilities unrounded. Thereare two possible ways to do this: To…

A music professor offers his 40 students the option of coming to an additional rehearsal session theweek before their juries (musical final exams.) In order to decide whether these extra sessions actuallyhelp students, he keeps track of who attends them and compares their jury scores to those of students who did not schedule extra sessions. In this study, a difference was found between the scores of students who scheduled the extra sessions and those of students who didn't attend(higher average for students with extra sessions) A) Yes, becuase the study relied on a common final exam fro everyone B)No, because the students chose whether they attended the review session or not C) Yes becuase the study included both students who attned the review session and those who did not D)Yes, becuase the number of subjects in the study was large E)No, becuase the students in the study were not blinded
