A political polling organization has been hired to conduct a poll of likely voters prior to an upcoming election. Each voter is to be interviewed in person. It is known that the costs of interviewing different types of voters vary due to the difference in proportion within the population. The costs to interview males, for example, are $20 per Democrat, $18 per Republican, and $27 per Independent voter. The costs to interview female are $24, $22 and $28 for Democrat,...

1a) In a certain county, 60% of registered voters are Republicans, 30% are Democrats, and 10% are Independents. When those voters were asked about increasing military spending, 40% opposed it, 65% of Democrats opposed it, and 55% of Independents opposed it. A registered voter from this county writes a letter to the local paper arguing against increased military spending. What is the probability that this voter is an Independent? 1b) In a certain county, 60% of registered voters are Republicans,...

A random sample of n1 = 290 voters registered in the state of California showed that 143 voted in the last general election. A random sample of n2 = 216 registered voters in the state of Colorado showed that 130 voted in the most recent general election. Do these data indicate that the population proportion of voter turnout in Colorado is higher than that in California? Use a 5% level of significance. (a) What is the level of significance? State...

A random sample of 500 registered voters in Phoenix is asked if they favor the use of oxygenated fuels throughout the year to reduce pollution. If more than 315 voters respond positively, we conclude that at least 60% of the voters favor the use of these fuels. a) Find the type I error probability if exactly 60% of the voters favor the use of these fuels. b) What is the probability of error type II β if 75% of the...
