QUESTION 13 Suppose that historically, the proportion of people who trade in their old car to a car dealer when purchasing a new car is 48%. Over the previous 6 months, in a sample of 115 new-car buyers, 46 have traded in their old car. To determine whether the proportion of new car buyers that trade in their old car has statistically significantly decreased, what is the p-value? (please round your answer to 4 decimal places)
QUESTION 29 Suppose the following are the seasonal indices for the first three quarters of the year for a quarterly series: Quarter Seasonal Index Q1 71.3 Q2 89.4 Q3 108.9 Remember that the seasonal indices should average 100 so you should be able to infer the seasonal index for Q4. Furthermore, suppose that the estimated coeffcients from a regression of the deseasonalized series on Time are given below: Coefficients Intercept 2,885 Time 61.4 What is the forecast for period 102, if period 102 is a Q3? (please round your answer to 1 decimal place)

Question 2 The past records of a supermarket show that its customers spend an average of $65 per visit at this store. Recently the management of the store initiated a promotional campaign according to which each customer receives points based on the total money spent at the store, and these points can be used to buy products at the store. The management expects that as a result of this campaign, the customers should be encouraged to spend more money at the store. To check whether this is true, the manager of the store took a sample of 12 customers who visited the store. The following data give the money (in dollars) spent by these customers at this supermarket during their visits. 88 69 141 28 106 45 32 51 78 54 110 83 Assume that the money spent by all customers at this supermarket has a normal distribution. Using the 5% significance level, can you conclude that the mean amount of money spend by all customers at this supermarket after the campaign was started is more than $65?

QUESTION 5 A country club wants to exam the effects of a new marketing campaign that attempts to get more people within the community to become members. In many communities, when people buy a house in the area, they receive a “Welcome Wagon” gift basket containing coupons to local restaurants. The idea of the marketing campaign is to include a free two month membership to the country club in the gift basket with the hope that once “new” residents try the country club then at least a certain proportion will want to become real members. One member of the Club’s Executive Council believes that at least 80% of the people who receive the coupons for the free membership will use the coupon. In a sample of 197 new residents who received the coupon for the two month free membership, there were 136 people who actually took advantage of the free two month membership. When testing the hypothesis that at least 80% of the people that receive the coupon actually use it, what is the test statistic?…
