4. A researcher claims that the percentage of infants who receiveimmunizations is less than 80%. She selects a sample of size 750 infantsand 573 have received immunizations. At a 5 % significance level, what conclusion should the researchersmake?
According to the February 2008 Federal Trade Commission report on consumerfraud and identity theft, 23% of all complaints in 2007 were for identity theft. Inthat year, Arkansas had 1,601 complaints of identity theft out of 3,482 consumercomplaints ("Consumer fraud and," 2008). Does this data provide enoughevidence to show that Arkansas had a higher proportion of identity theft than23%? Test at the 5% level.
3. Research suggests that depression significantly increases the risk of developing dementia later in life. Suppose that in a study involving 949 elderly persons, it was found that 22% of those who had depression went on to develop dementia, compared to only 17% of those who did not have depression. a) Describe the relevant population and the sample.b) Are the numbers 22% and 17% associated with the population or a sample?
The head of the quality control department at a printing company would like to carry out an experiment to determine which of three different glues results in the greatest binding strength. Although they are not of interest in the current investigation, other factors thought to affect binding strength are the number of pages in the book and whether the book is being bound as a paperback or a hardback.a. What is the response variable in this experiment?b. What explanatory variable will determine the experimental conditions?c. What two extraneous variables are mentioned in the problem description? Arethere other extraneous variables that should be considered?
A curious student wants to see if she can conclude that a higherproportion of Woodland College students transfer to Sac State than Yuba College students. He samples 82 Woodland College students and finds that 23 of them transferred to Sac State. He also samples 95 Yuba college students and finds that 21 of them transferred to Sac State. What can be concluded at a 5% significance level? Use the pvalue approach.
The U.S. Census Bureau conducts annual surveys to obtain information on the percentage of the voting-age population that is registered to vote. Suppose that 713 employed persons and 613 unemployed persons are independently and randomly selected and that 338 of the employed persons and 244 of the unemployed persons have registered to vote. Can we conclude that the percentage of employed workers ( p1 ), who have registered to vote, exceeds the percentage of unemployed workers ( p2 ), who have registered to vote? Use a significance level of α=0.1 for the test. Step 1 of 6 : State the null and alternative hypotheses for the test. Step 2 of 6 : Find the values of the two sample proportions, pˆ1p^1 and pˆ2p^2. Round your answers to three decimal places. Step 3 of 6 : Compute the weighted estimate of p, p‾p‾. Round your answer to three decimal places. Step 4 of 6 : Compute the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to two decimal places.…
A health insurance company wants to determine if more than 25% of US residents have been to a hospital emergency room within the past year. It was found that in a sample of 1000 people, 28% indicated that they had been to an emergency room within the past year. With a significance level of 0.01, is there evidence to suggest that the proportion of US residents that have been to the emergency room in the past year is actually higher than 25%?
A city is collecting data on two neighborhoods, one low income and one middle income, to see whether or not their residents would support an increase in local sales tax to pay for more city services. The city wishes to see if there is evidence to show that the first neighborhood (low income) has a lower level of support for the tax compared to the second neighborhood (middle income).You wish to test the following claim (HaHa) at a significance level of α=0.002 Ho:p1=p2 Ha:p1<p2You obtain a sample from the first population with 219 successes and 131 failures.

The Pew Research Center has reported results of many studies highlighting political topics and potential public policy. For example, when Gallup first surveyed public opinion about the legalization of marijuana in 1969, only 12% of the public favored legalization. A more recent survey from March 2016 showed 53% of the public favoring legalization of marijuana. To examine potential generational differences in the proportions who favor the legalization of marijuana, researchers randomly surveyed groups of Baby Boomers (those born between 1946 and 1964) and Millennials (those born from 1981 to 1997) asking the following question: "Do you support the legalization of marijuana for medical and recreational use in the United States?" The data were as follows. Yes No Total Baby Boomers (population 1) 312 293 605 Millennials (population 2) 349 286 635 (a) State the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses.

A computer manufacturer believes that the proportion of hardware malfunctions is different in humid climates than in dry climates. To test this claim, the manufacturer takes a random sample of 400 machines sold in Florida (humid) and 400 machines sold in Arizona (dry). The manufacturer finds that 44 of the machines in Florida and 24 of the machines in Arizona had hardware malfunctions. d. Does the evidence support the computer manufacturer's claim at the 10% significance level?
