According to Lyme Disease surveillance information from the Rhode Island Department of Health (RIDOH), there were 441 cases of Lyme disease in Providence County and 86 cases in Bristol County in the year 2018. According to estimates for the same year from the U.S. Census Bureau, the population in Bristol County was 48,637 whereas the estimated population of Providence County was 636,953. Based on these data, the occurrence of Lyme disease per 100,000 population was ............. a. Nearly the same in both the counties b. Lower in Providence County than in Bristol County c. Higher in Providence County than in Bristol County d. More information is necessary to compare Lyme Disease occurrence between the two counties

The owner of a chain of mini-markets wants to compare the sales performance of two of her stores, Store 1 and Store 2. Though the two stores have been comparable in the past, the owner has made several improvements to Store 1 and wishes to see if the improvements have made Store 1 more popular than Store 2. Sales can vary considerably depending on the day of the week and the season of the year, so she decides to eliminate such effects by making sure to record each store's sales on the same sample of days. After choosing a random sample of 8 days, she records the sales (in dollars) for each store on these days, as shown in the table below. Based on these data, can the owner conclude, at the 0.05 level of significance, that the mean daily sales of Store 1 exceeds that of Store 2? Answer this question by performing a hypothesis test regarding μd (which is μ with a letter "d" subscript), the population mean daily sales difference between the two stores. Assume that this population of…
