Types of Automobiles Purchased In a recent year U.S. retail automobile sales were categorized as listed below. luxury 16.0% large 4.6% midsize 39.8% small 39.6% A random sample of 150 recent purchases indicated the following results: 25 were luxury models, 12 were large cars, 60 were midsize, and 53 were small. At the 0.10 level of significance, is there sufficient evidence to conclude that the proportions of each type of car purchased differed from the report?

Find the test value The manager of the cosmetics section of a large department store wants to determine whether newspaper advertising really does affect sales. For her experiment, she randomly selects 15 items currently in stock and proceeds to establish a baseline. The 15 items are priced at their usual competitive values, and the quantity of each item sold for a 1-week period is recorded. Then, without changing their price, she places a large ad in the newspaper, advertising the 15 items. Again, she records the quantity sold for a 1-week period. The results follow.

A study was conducted to investigate whether the percent of rented textbooks for all science classes in the state was greater than the percent of rented textbooks for all literature classes in the state. The following hypothesis test was done at the significance level of α=0.05α=0.05. H0:pS=pLHa:pS>pLH0:pS=pLHa:pS>pL In the hypotheses, pSpS represents the proportion of all science textbooks that are rented, and pLpL represents the proportion of all literature textbooks that are rented. All conditions for inference were met, and the resulting pp-value was 0.035. Which of the following is the correct decision for the test? The pp-value is less than αα. Since 0.035<0.050.035<0.05, the null hypothesis is rejected, and the claim is supported.
