Marriage Proposals In a survey conducted by TheKnot.com, 1165 engaged or married women were asked about the importance of a bended knee when making a marriage proposal. Among the 1165 respondents, 48% said that the bended knee was essential.
a. What is the exact value that is 48% of 1165 survey respondents?
b. Could the result from part (a) be the actual number of survey subjects who said that a bended knee is essential? Why or why not?
c. What is the actual number of survey respondents saying that the bended knee is essential?
d. Among the 1165 respondents, 93 said that a bended knee is corny and outdated. What percentage of respondents said that a bended knee is corny and outdated?
C. A college requires an IQ of 120 or more for entrance. From what percentage of the population must it draw its students?
In Exercises 5–18, test the given claim.
Four Quarters the Same as $1? In a study of the “denomination effect,” 43 college students were each given one dollar in the form of four quarters, while 46 other college students were each given one dollar in the form of a dollar bill. All of the students were then given two choices: (1) keep the money; (2) spend the money on gum. The results are given in the accompanying table (based on “The Denomination Effect,” by Priya Raghubir and Joydeep Srivastava, Journal of Consumer Research, Vol. 36.) Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that whether students purchased gum or kept the money is independent of whether they were given four quarters or a $1 bill. Is there a “denomination effect”?

The head of the department wants to see how many 18-wheel tractor trailers pass on the road. These estimates will be used to determine highway repairs and construction considerations and in highway patrol planning. The department chief asked investigators to calculate estimates of vehicles at different locations on inter-island roads over the past 7 days. From 3,481 vehicles counted there are 927 are 18-wheel drive. However, out of the total 927, there were 51 vehicles that had accidents so that the sample was calculated based on the results of a reduction in the number of accidents.
