Both before and after a recent earthquake, surveys were conducted asking voters which of the three candidates they planned on voting for in the upcoming city council election. Has there been a change since the earthquake? Use a level of significance of 0.05. Table shows the results of the survey.

H0: There has not been a change since the earthquake

H1: There has been a change since the earthquake

Let the los be alpha = 5%

The observed frequencies are

The expected frequencies are

The chi-square contribution values are

Test Statistic, X^2: 1020.8054

Degrees of freedom: 2

Critical X^2: 5.991471

P-Value: 0.0000

since Chi-square value 1020.8054 > Chi-square critical value so we reject H0

and P-value < alpha 0.05 so we reject H0

Thus we conclude that there has been a change since the earthquake

Large Sample Proportion Problem. Surveys were conducted in multiple countries and respondents were asked if they felt political news was reported fairly. The data for the United States is that out of 1,000 sampled, 470 indicated yes, they felt political news was reported fairly. Suppose we want to determine if the proportion for the U.S. is below .50. What is the standard error for this hypothesis test? Group of answer choices Cannot be determined from the information given. SQRT((.5*.5)/1000) SQRT((.47*.53)/1000 .4991/SQRT(1,000)

After the 2010 earthquake in Haiti, many charitable organizations conducted fundraising campaigns to raise money for emergency relief. Some of these campaigns allowed people to donate by sending a text message using a cell phone to have the donated amount added to their cell-phone bill. The report "Early Signals on Mobile Philanthropy: Is Haiti the Tipping Point?" (Edge Research, 2010) describes the results of a national survey of 1526 people that investigated the ways in which people made donations to...
