The National Association of Realtors would like to test the hypothesis that 26% of home buyers in the state of Florida are foreigners. A random sample of 110 home buyers was selected and the number of foreigners was counted. Assume that the true proportion of home buyers that are foreigners is 0.216. Using α = 0.10, beta equals ________. A) 0.8615 B) 0.7222 C) 0.5012 D) 0.2273

A research center claims that that 31% of adults in a certain country would travel into space on a commercial flight if they could afford it. In a random sample of 1200 adults in that country, 33% say that would travel into space on a commercial flight if they could afford it. At alpa= 0.05, isthere enough evidence to reject the research centers claim complete parts a through d below
A researcher obtained a result of t(48)=6.78, p<.01 for their study using an independent t-test. Are the results significant using an alpha level of .01 and how many participants were in each group?
In a clinical study, a random sample of 540 participants agree to have their blood drawn, which is to be examined for the presence of antibodies against a certain contagious disease. It is found in 22% of the blood samples, which experimenters hope to extrapolate to the general population. From this random sample, 10 participants' blood samples are selected at random. If X is the number of samples out of the 10 who have these antibodies, what can we say about X? A. The sample size is not large enough for us to approximate X using a normal distribution B.The expected value of X is 22 C. X can be approximated using a normal distribution in lieu of a binomial distribution D. X has a sampling distribution that is normal
In a random sample of 320 cars driven at low altitudes, 50 of them exceeded a standard of 10 grams of particulate pollution per gallon of fuel consumed. In an independent random sample of 135 cars driven at high altitudes, 17 of them exceeded the standard. Can you conclude that the proportion of high-altitude vehicles exceeding the standard is less than the proportion of low-altitude vehicles exceeding the standard? Let p1 denote the proportion of low-altitude vehicles exceeding the standard and p2 denote the proportion of high-altitude vehicles exceeding the standard. Use the =α0.10 level of significance and the P -value method with the TI-84 Plus calculator. please state all steps to the p method clearly!
