2. School administrators are concerned that important university emails are being automatically (and incorrectly) labeled as ‘spam’ by email providers. Independent random samples of ‘google mail’ and ‘yahoo.ca’ users are randomly selected. Out of the sample of google mail users (n=200), 150 reported that they had received the email. Out of the sample of yahoo.ca users (n=150), 90 reported that they had received the email. Is there a significant difference in receiving the email between users of google mail and yahoo.ca email providers?

2a. Calculate the test statistic.

2b. Find the p-value for the test. Test for a significant difference at the 1% significance level and state whether you reject or fail to reject the null (and why).

Administrators at a particular correctional institution were concerned that the offenders being sentenced to their facility had particularly high levels of depression. They decided to have a sample of 65 incoming offenders complete a self-report depression scale. The particular depression scale they used is normed to have a mean of 15 in the general population. The offenders from the institution scored an average of 17 with a standard deviation of 5 over the two years that the testing was conducted....

Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine have determined that children under 2 years old who sleep with the lights on have a 33% chance of becoming myopic before they are 16. Children who sleep in darkness have a 22% probability of becoming myopic. A survey indicates that 26% of children under 2 sleep with some light on. Find the probability that a random child under 2 will become myopic before reaching 16 years old.
