In a study of a group of women science majors who remained in their profession and a group who left their profession within a few months of graduation, the researchers collected the data shown here on a self-esteem questionnaire. Leavers Stayers1 = 3.05 2 = 2.92σ1 = 0.71 σ2 = 0.71n1 = 100 n2 = 227At α = 0.05, can it be concluded that there is a difference in the self-esteem scores of the two groups? Use the P-value method.

31% of all pygmy softshell toises have stripes on their shells. A herpetologist in Cititon collects a sample of 28 pygmy softshell tortoises and finds that 8 of them have stripes on their shells. Is there enough evidence to conclude, at a significance of alpha=0.05, that the proportion of pygmy softshell tortoises in Cititon with stripes on their shells is less than 31%? What is the claim? What is the null hypothesis? What is the alternative hypothesis? What is the test statistic? What is/are the critical value(s)? Do we reject the null hypothesis? What conclusion do we draw? What is the P-value for the problem above?
A recent poll found that 664 out of 1026 randomly selected people in a particular country felt that colleges and universities with big sports programs placed too much emphasis on athletics over academics. Assuming the conditions for the CLT are met, use the accompanying Minitab output to complete parts a and b below. N Event Sample p 95% CI for p 1026 664 0.647173 (0.617934, 0.676413) Question content area bottom b. Suppose a sports blogger wrote an article claiming that a majority of adults from this country believe that colleges and universities with big sports programs place too much emphasis on athletics over academics. Does this confidence interval support the blogger's claim? Explain your reasoning. A. No, it is not a plausible claim because the confidence interval contains 50%. B. No, it is not a plausible claim because the confidence interval does not contain only values above 50%. C. Yes, it is a…
The article “The Effects of a Low-Fat, Plant-Based DietaryIntervention on Body Weight, Metabolism, and InsulinSensitivity in Postmenopausal Women” (Amer. J. of Med.,2005: 991–997) reported on the results of an experiment inwhich half of the individuals in a group of 64 postmenopausaloverweight women were randomly assigned to a particularvegan diet, and the other half received a diet based on NationalCholesterol Education Program guidelines. The sample meandecrease in body weight for those on the vegan diet was 5.8kg, and the sample SD was 3.2, whereas for those on the control diet, the sample mean weight loss and standard deviationwere 3.8 and 2.8, respectively. Does it appear the true averageweight loss for the vegan diet exceeds that for the control dietby more than 1 kg?

To determine a target audience for a new email package, a computer company surveyed a large random sample of potential customers, asking each whether he/she uses email on a regular basis. (The company considered "a regular basis" to be at least three times a week.) The data, as summarized in the contingency table below, were classified according to two variables: the age of the respondent ("under 18", "18-35", "36-54", "55+") and regularity of email use ("on a regular basis" or "not on a regular basis"). Each cell of the table contains three numbers: the first number is the observed cell frequency (fO); the second number is the expected cell frequency (fE) under the assumption that there is no dependence between age and regularity of email use and the third number is the following value. =−fOfE2fE−Observed cell frequencyExpected cell frequency2Expected cell frequency
In each of Exercises, use the Wilcoxon signed-rank test to perform the required hypothesis test. How Old People Are. In 2010, the median age of U.S. residents was 37.2 years, as reported by the U.S. Census Bureau in Current Population Reports. A random sample of 10 U.S. residents taken this year yielded the following ages, in years 44 64 16 59 38 47 51 41 13 28 At the 1% significance level, do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the median age of today’s U.S. residents has increased from the 2010 median age of 37.2 years?
A local dairy conducted taste tests of their nonfat and low fat cream cheese spreads at three supermarkets on one Saturday. They asked people to compare a cracker with their low fat spread on it and another cracker with the nationally known brand of the same type of spread. At one supermarket, everyone who came to the testing table, located just inside by the front door, and asked to participate was included. At a second market, only people who appeared to be older teenagers and adults were allowed to participate. The testing table was in the section of the store where paper goods are sold. At the third store, the testing table was in the dairy section and everyone who was asked to participate was included. However, they ran out of one of the products and had to stop the test three hours earlier than they planned. The table below shows how many people were tested at each location and their stated preferences Store A Store B Store C Number tasters = 258Number preferring local brand…
