Question 1

The American Pet Products Association conducted a survey in 2011 and determined that 60% of dog owners have only one dog, 28% have two dogs, and 12% have three or more. Supposing that you have decided to conduct your own survey and have collected the data below, determine whether your data supports the results of the APPA study. Use a significance level of 0.05.

Data: Out of 119 dog owners, 70 had one dog and 30 had two dogs.

What is the p-value when testing whether your data supports the results of the APPA study? (note: The question asked has been updated)

Question 1 options:

0.2316

0.2710

0.3832

0.4487

Question 2

A survey of 325 middle school students from a city school district asks, among other things, for students’ gender, whether they prefer cats or dogs, and whether they prefer basketball or football. With these data, we can investigate whether, in this city, girls prefer cats over dogs, whether gender matters in terms of favorite sport, and whether there is a relationship between favorite pet and favorite sport.

Here are part of the data:

Pet Boy Girl
Cat 51 69
Dog 110 95

Suppose that you plan to use a chi-square test for determining whether there is any gender gap in the preference of certain pets (cats/dogs).

What is the p-value?

Question 2 options:

0.0314

0.0405

0.0522

0.0689

Question 3

Suppose we have survey data for 1,000 randomly selected local pet owners. We wish to determine if the population proportion of local ferret owners is different from the national average of 6.5%. Out of the 1000 selected pet owners, 85 are ferret owners.

Test whether there is a significant difference between the local ferret rate and the national average.

The p-value is

Question 3 options:

0.0045

0.0078

0.0103

0.0351

Question 4

Suppose we have survey data for 1,000 randomly selected local pet owners. We wish to determine if the population proportion of local ferret owners is different from the national average of 6.5%. Out of the 1000 selected pet owners, 85 are ferret owners.

Give a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of local ferret owners.

Question 4 options:

0.04 to 0.13

0.07 to 0.10

0.05 to 0.12

0.06 to 0.11

Question 5

A high school math teacher believes that male and female students who graduated from the school perform equally well on SAT math test. She randomly chooses 10 male students and 10 female students who graduated from this school. The following are the SAT math scores of the 20 students:

Male: 23, 30, 27, 29, 22, 34, 36, 28, 28, 31
Female: 22, 33, 30, 28, 28, 31, 34, 25, 29, 21

Test the teacher's claim.

What is the p-value?
