The proportions of blood types O, A, B and AB in the general population of a particular country are known to be in the ratio 49:38:9:4, respectively. A research team, investigating a small isolated community in the country, obtained the following frequencies of blood type. Blood type O A B AB Frequency 87 59 20 4 a) Test the hypothesis that the proportions in this community do not differ significantly from those in the general population b) Interpret your results.

The table below summarizes data from a survey of a sample of women. Using a 0.01significance level, and assuming that the sample sizes of 800 men and 300 women are predetermined, test the claim that the proportions of agree/disagree responses are the same for subjects interviewed by men and the subjects interviewed by women. Does it appear that the gender of the interviewer affected the responses of women? Gender of Interviewer Man Woman Women who agree 498 247 Women who disagree 302 53 Compute the test statistic, rounding to three decimal places. Find the critical value(s). (Round to three decimal places) What is the conclusion based on the hypothesis test?
3. After receiving complaints from McDonald’s customers in Japan about the amount of french fries being served, the on-line news magazine ”Rocket News” decided to test the actual weight of the fries served at a particular Japanese McDonald’s restaurant. According to the Rocket News article, the official weight standard set by McDonald’s of Japan is for a medium sized fries to weigh 135 grams. The publication weighed the fries from 36 different medium fries they purchased and found the average weight of the fries in their sample to be 130 grams with a variance of 225 grams. Research Question: Does the data suggest that the medium fries from this McDonald’s in Japan are underpacked? Use α =0.05. (a) Which of the following is the H0 ? (null) A.H0:μ ̸= 135 B.H0:x ̸= 135 C.H0:μ ≥ 130 D.H0:x ≥ 130 E.H0:μ ≤ 135 F.H0:x ≤ 135 G.H0:μ ≥ 135 H.H0:x ≥ 135 I.

a) What proportion of 20% of defective items should a supervisor in the quality system of a plastic products company accept when they ask him to evaluate a routine inspection procedure for orders of 100 identical articles, knowing that the procedure consists of taking a sample of 10 items and the one to accept the order if no more than 2 defective items are found? b) How many defective items are expected to appear in the sample?
In a study to estimate the proportion of smokers among the residents in a certain city and its suburbs, it is found that 24 of 104 urban residents aresmokers, while 34 of 108 suburban residents are smokers. Is there a significant difference between the proportions of smokers among urban and suburban residents? Make use of a P-value.
The records of a light bulb manufacturer show that, when the manufacturing machinery is working correctly, the defect rate (due to imperfections in the material used) is 1%. The manufacturer's control department periodically tests samples of the bulbs, and when 1.25% or more are defective, they call repair technicians for service. The control department is going to take a random sample of 4400 light bulbs. Let p be the proportion of defective light bulbs in the sample assuming the machinery is working correctly. Answer the following. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a) Find the mean of p. (b) Find the standard deviation of p. (c) Compute an approximation for P(P ≥ 0.0125), which is the probability that, assuming the machinery is working correctly, the repair technicians will be called. Round your answer to four decimal places.
A report in LTO stated that the average age of taxis in the Philippines is 9 years. An operations manager of a large taxi company selects a sample of 40 taxis and finds the average age of the taxis is 8.2 years. The σ of the population is 2.3 years. At ? = 0.05, can it be concluded that the average age of the taxis in his company is less than the national average?
According to the Pew Research Center,on the propotion of the American population who use only a cellular telephone (landline) is 0.37. Jason conducts a survey of one hundred fifty 20 to 24 year olds who live on their own and finds that 73 do not have a landline to their home. Does this provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the proportion of 20 to 24 year olds who live on their own and don't have a landline is greater than 0.37? Use a=0.10 level of significance. A) Verify that nP0(1-P0)>10 and n< 0.05N (Assume the population sizes is N=40 million) B) State the appropiate null and alternative hypotheses. C) Indicate whether the hypothesis is left, right, or two- tailed.

There is evidence to reject the claim that the proportions are equal because the test value 5.743 < 5.991 B. There is evidence to reject the claim that the proportions are equal because the test value 5.991 > 5.743 C. There is not evidence to reject the claim that the proportions are equal because the test value 5.743 < 5.991 D. There is not evidence to reject the claim that the proportions are equal because the test value 5.991 > 5.743
A European football agency reports the following based on a study they did: 90% of soccer players take magnesium in topical form for muscle soreness, 5.5% take magnesium in pill form, and 4.5% take magnesium in powder form. To verify, a researcher randomly selects 794 soccer players and reports the following. Form of magnesium (Mg) Number of soccer players Topical 632 Pill 95 Powder 67 To determine if the proportions the European football agency reported are accurate, the researcher will conduct a Chi-square Goodness of Fit test. Complete the table below to calculate the chi-square statistic. Round all values to two decimal places! (Use the correct expected counts from the previous question.)
