While her husband spent 2½ hours picking out new speakers, a statistician decided to determine whether the percent of men who enjoy shopping for electronic equipment is higher than the percent of women who enjoy shopping for electronic equipment. The population was Saturday afternoon shoppers. Out of 68 men, 24 said they enjoyed the activity. Eight of the 23 women surveyed claimed to enjoy the activity. Interpret the results of the survey. Conduct a hypothesis test at the 5% level. Let the subscript m men and w = women. a. State the distribution to use for the test. (Round your answers to four decimal places.) P'm-P N(C, ) ~

At one school, the average amount of time that tenth-graders spend watching television each week is 15.5 hours. The principal introduces a campaign to encourage the students to watch less television. One year later, the principal wants to perform a hypothesis test to determine whether the average amount of time spent watching television per week has changed

Over the past few decades, public health officials have examined the link between weight concerns and teen girls’ smoking. Researchers surveyed a group of 273 randomly selected teen girls living in Massachusetts (between 12 and 15 years old). After four years the girls were surveyed again. Sixty-three said they smoked to stay thin. Is there good evidence that more than thirty percent of the teen girls smoke to stay thin? Solve the following problems using the steps in conducting hypothesis tests.
A ski lift manager is interested in the average daily number of ski lift users. In previous years, fewer than 945 people, on average, have used the ski lift daily over the winter season. The manager suspects this average has increased in recent years. If the ski lift manager chooses to use the p-value approach for his hypothesis test, what does he need to compare the p-value to?
A poll done for Newsweek found that 13% of Americans have seen or sensed the presence of an angel. A contingent doubts that the percent is really that high. It conducts its own survey. Out of 76 Americans surveyed, only two had seen or sensed the presence of an angel. As a result of the contingent’s survey, would you agree with the Newsweek poll? Perform a hypothesis test, using the five-step process, to test whether the proportion of Americans who have seen or sensed the presence of an angel is less than 13%.
