The highway department wants to estimate the proportion of vehicles on a Toll road at KM 25 between midnight and 5:00 A.M. The department head wanted to see how many 18-wheel tractor trailers passed along the road. These estimates will be used to determine road improvement and construction considerations and in road patrol planning. The department head asked researchers to calculate the estimated vehicles at different locations on the inter-island road over the past 7 days. Of the 3,481 vehicles counted, 927 were 18 wheelers. However, out of a total of 927, there were 74 who had accidents, so the sample was calculated based on the results of reducing the number of accidents. Determine the point estimate for the proportion of vehicles traveling on KM 25 during this time period which are 18 wheelers! (Assume the confidence level is 99%). What is the benefit of estimating the estimated value in this case (analyze the answers you have obtained)?
The American Heart Association is about to conduct an anti-smoking campaign and wants to know the fraction of Americans over 38 who smoke. Step 1 of 2: Suppose a sample of 273 Americans over 38 is drawn. Of these people, 79 smoke. Using the data, estimate the proportion of Americans over 38 who smoke. Enter your answer as a fraction or a decimal number rounded to three decimal places. Step 2 of 2: Suppose a sample of 273 Americans over 38 is drawn. Of these people, 79 smoke. Using the data, construct the 85% confidence interval for the population proportion of Americans over 38 who smoke. Round your answers to three decimal places. Lower end point, upper end point
We wish to demonstrate that the average time to graduate from college is affected by the students having taken AP calculus in high school. Specifically we wish to demonstrate that students who have taken AP calculus in high school gradate an average of at most 0.25 years sooner than students who have not taken AP calculus in high school. If we let μ1 demote the average time to graduate for students who have not taken AP calculus and μ2 denote the average time to graduate for students who have taken AP calculus, then select the appropriate alternative hypothesis: a. μ1-μ2 = 0 b. μ1-μ2-0.25 < 0 c. μ1-μ2-0.25>0 Please explain
We wish to demonstrate that the average time to graduate from Tulane is affected by the students having taken AP calculus in high school. Specially, we wish to demonstrate that students who have taken AP calculus in high school graduate an average of more than 0.25 years sooner than students who have not taken AP calculus in high school. If we let denote the average time to graduate for students who have not taken AP calculus and denotes the average time to graduate for students who have taken AP calculus, then select the appropriate alternative hypothesis.

One operation of a mill is to cut pieces of steel into parts that are used in the frame for front seats in an automobile. The steel is cut with a diamond saw, and the resulting parts must be cut to be within 0.005 inch of the length specified by the automobile company. The measurement reported from a sample of 100 steel parts (stored in “Assignment 2 – Steel.xlsx” ) is the difference, in inches, between the actual length of the steel part, as measured by a laser measurement device, and the specified length of the steel part. For example, the first observation, -0.002, represents a steel part that is 0.002 inch shorter than the specified length. -0.0042 0.0057 0.0031 -0.0085 -0.0087 0.0083 0.0035 -0.0070 0.0040 0.0080 0.0094 -0.0036 -0.0067 0.0052 0.0100 -0.0010 0.0077 0.0010 -0.0060 -0.0025 -0.0022 -0.0097 0.0047 0.0060 0.0006 -0.0044 0.0015 0.0089 -0.0039 -0.0064 -0.0046 -0.0096 0.0021 -0.0071 -0.0020 0.0009 -0.0028 -0.0060 0.0001 -0.0057 -0.0062 0.0054 0.0061 0.0090 0.0004 0.0051…

The control department of a light bulb manufacturer randomly picks 4400 light bulbs from the production lot every week. The records show that, when there is no malfunction, the defect rate in the manufacturing process (due to imperfections in the material used) is 1% . When 1.25% or more of the light bulbs in the sample of 4400 are defective, the control unit calls repair technicians for service. Answer the following. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a)Find the mean of p, where pis the proportion of defective light bulbs in a sample of 4400when there is no malfunction. (b)Find the standard deviation of p . (c)Compute an approximation for P≥p0.0125 , which is the probability that the service technicians will be called even though the system is functioning properly. Round your answer to four decimal places.
