n 2014, 52 of 200 car accident were caused by cell phones. Similar numbers in 2018 were 75 out of 300. Assuming that the samples are randomly and independently selected.

a) Conduct a test of hypothesis to determine if there is evidence to indicate that the cell phone related car accidents rate was decreased in 2018. (State the hypotheses)

b) Find the 99% confidence interval for the difference of the two proportions. Does the confidence interval contain 0?

c) Calculate the point estimate of the parameter of interest under the null hypothesis. Student’s name:

d) Calculate the test statistic, show the rejection region, and make the decision accordingly. (α = 0.01)

A survey of 200 drivers who were at fault in an accident found that 62% were dropped by their insurance carrier. Conduct a hypothesis test at a 0.10 level of significance to determine if the percentage of drivers dropped by the insurance carrier is different than 60%. State the null and alternate hypotheses. Use whichever applicable approach to hypothesis testing that you prefer, specify the numerical comparisons to be made, and state your conclusion.

When cell phones were first introduced, bandwidth was limited, which led to economically interesting pricing structures. One by Spring offered 4,000 free minutes for $39.99 a month. The fine print revealed a catch. Only 350 of those minutes were anytime minutes; the remaining were restricted to evening and weekend usage. If you went over your allotted time, you were charged 35 cents per minute for any additional minutes. What was your marginal cost? Graph it. What would your average variable...
