A Pew Internet survey in 2012 examined several demographic variables of users of social networking sites including sex, age, race, education and income. Of the 1,802 users surveyed, 846 were men and 525 of them used social networking sites. Among the 956 women in the survey, 679 of them used social networking sites. Is there good evidence that the proportion of Internet users who use social networking sites is different for men and women.

A Harris Interactive poll reported that 32.4% of 275 randomly selected Americans living in the west stated that they attend church regularly. Whereas, 57.6% of 264 randomly selected Americans living in the south stated that they attend church regularly.
Based on the results of this poll, can one reach the conclusion that the proportion of Americans who attend church regularly is lower in the west than in the south? Use ! = 5%.
More people are using social media to network, rather than phone calls or e-mails (US News & World Report, October 20, 2010). From an employment perspective, jobseekers are no longer calling up friends for help with job placement, as they can now get help online. In a recent survey of 150 jobseekers, 67 said they used LinkedIn to search for jobs. A similar survey of 140 jobseekers, conducted three years ago, had found that 58 jobseekers had used LinkedIn for their job search. (You may find it useful to reference the appropriate table: z table or t table)Let p1 represent the population proportion of recent jobseekers and p2 the population proportion of job seekers three years ago.
a. Set up the hypotheses to test whether there is sufficient evidence to suggest that more people are now using LinkedIn to search for jobs as compared to three years ago.

- Sociologists argued that women on average earn less than men as women often choose to work less hours. They further suggest that the choice of hours worked may be driven by various factors such as age, childcare needs, occupation choice and flexibility. To investigate the relation between hours worked and income earned by Australian men and women, a researcher plans to survey a sample of individuals across the country. First, the researcher categorised the data into six location groups and six occupation groups, and calculated the frequencies given below. Frequency tables Location Occupation Location category Frequency Occupation category Frequency Location group A 5 Occupation group 1 4 Location group B 7 Occupation group 2 26 Location group C 12 Occupation group 3 15 Location group D 25 Occupation group 4 12 Location group E 10…arrow_forwardA study of the career plans of young women and men sent questionnaires to all members of the senior class in a College of Business Administration at the University of Illinois.

Power and Associates use the proportion of owners likely to repurchase a particular automobile as an indication of customer loyalty for the automobile. An automobile with a greater proportion of owners likely to repurchase is concluded to have greater customer loyalty. A study was conducted to compare the customer loyalty for three automobiles: Chevrolet Impala, Ford Fusion, and Honda Accord. The study contained 500 respondents and the data is summarized in the Microsoft Excel Online file below. Use the spreadsheet to perform the required calculations and hypothesis test.arrow_forward

- x Resorts & Spas, a magazine devoted to upscale vacations and accommodations, published its Reader's Choice List of the top 20 independent beachfront boutique hotels in the world. The data shown are the scores received by these hotels based on the results from Resorts & Spas' annual Readers' Choice Survey. Each score represents the percentage of respondents who rated a hotel as excellent or very good on one of three criteria (comfort, amenities, and in-house dining). An overall score was also reported and used to rank the hotels. The highest ranked hotel, the Muri Beach Odyssey, has an overall score of 94.3, the highest component of which is 97.7 for in-house dining. If required, round your answer to three decimal places.

Smartphones have become an important way for Americans to communicate, go online, access and share information. The Pew Research Center surveyed 1635 people in November, 2014 on smartphone ownership. Their goal was to learn how Americans use their smartphone devices.

Marketers believe that the users of paper coupons are different from the users of e-coupons accessed through the Internet. One survey recorded the age of each person who redeemed a coupon along with the type of coupon (either paper or electronic). The sample of 24 traditional paper-coupon clippers had a mean age of 41.2 with a standard deviation of 4.8. The sample of 35 e-coupon users had a mean age of 32.5 years with a standard deviation of 11.2. Assume the population standard deviations are not the same. Using a significance level of 0.05, test the hypothesis of no difference in the mean ages of the two groups of coupon clients. Hint: For the calculations, assume e-coupon as the first sample. a.
