A study is made of residents in Phoenix and its suburbs concerning the proportion of residents who subscribe to Sporting News. A random sample of 90 urban residents showed that 12 subscribed, and a random sample of 97 suburban residents showed that 17 subscribed. Does this indicate that a higher proportion of suburban residents subscribe to Sporting News? Use a 1% level of significance

The investigators found a positive association - meaning that states with higher prevalence of firearm ownership also tended to be the states with higher rates of firearm assault.

In particular, the researchers were interested in the relationship between p1, the proportion of Alpha Airlines flights that were delayed at least 15 minutes, and p2, the proportion of Beta Airlines flights that were delayed at least 15 minutes. A random sample of 1,000 Alpha flights and a separate random sample of 1,000 Beta flights found that 67 of the Alpha fights and 160 of the Beta flights were delayed at least 15 minutes. The conditions for inference were checked and verified. Does this set of samples provide strong evidence that Alpha Airlines has a smaller proportion of flights that are delayed at least 15 minutes than Beta Airlines, at the α = 0.05 significance level? Find the z-table here. A. The test statistic is z = –6.56 and the P-value ≈ 0. Since the P-value ≈ 0 < 0.05, there is not sufficient evidence that Alpha Airlines has fewer delayed…arrow_forward

- A study was performed on 200 elementary school students to investigate whether regular Vitamin A supplementation was effective in preventing colds during the month of March. 100 were randomized to receive daily Vitamin A supplements during the month of March, and 100 students were randomized to a placebo group (and did not receive Vitamin A) during the same month. The number of students getting at least one cold in March was computed in the two groups, and the results are given in the following 2 X 2 table.

(The company considered "a regular basis" to be at least three times a week.) The data, as summarized in the contingency table below, were classified according to two variables: the age of the respondent ("under 18", "18-35", "36-54", "55+") and regularity of email use ("on a regular basis" or "not on a regular basis"). Each cell of the table contains three numbers: the first number is the observed cell frequency (fO); the second number is the expected cell frequency (fE) under the assumption that there is no dependence between age and regularity of email use and the third number is the following value.arrow_forward

The sample meandecrease in body weight for those on the vegan diet was 5.8kg, and the sample SD was 3.2, whereas for those on the control diet, the sample mean weight loss and standard deviationwere 3.8 and 2.8, respectively.
