. Approximately 10% of all people are left-handed, then the rest
of people are right-handed. Consider a group of 15 people, answer
the following question: (You cannot use the binomial table for this
problem) (a) State the random variable ?. (2 points) (b) Explain
why this is a binomial experiment. There should be 4 conditions to
check. (State the probability of left-handed people ?, the possible
outcomes, and the number of trials ? in the conditions.) (4 points)
(c) Find...

Suppose that researchers study a sample of 50 people and find
that 10 are left-handed.
(a) Find a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion
that is left-handed.
(b) What would the confidence interval be if the researchers
used the Wilson value ~p instead?
(c) Suppose that an investigator tests the null hypothesis that
the population proportion is 18% against the alternative that it is
less than that. If = 0:05 then nd the critical value ^pc. Using ^p
as...

(a) Find a 95% confidence interval for the population
proportion that is left-handed.
(b) What would the confidence interval be if the
researchers used the Wilson value ̃p instead?
(c) Suppose that an investigator tests the null
hypothesis that the population proportion is 18% against the
alternative that it is less than that. If α = 0.05 then find the

Researchers wanted to compare the proportion of females who are
left-handed to the proportion of males who are left-handed. The
researchers randomly selected 815 females and 575 males. They
observed that 66 of the females and 60 of the males were
left-handed.
Test the claim that the proportion of females who are
left-handed is lower than the proportion of males who are
left-handed. Test the claim at the 5% significance level.
Credit will be given for a complete analysis that...
