Contingency tables may be used to present data representing scales of measurement higher than the nominal scale. For example, a random sample of size 20 was selected from the graduate students who are U.S. citizens, and their grade point averages were recorded. 3.42 3.54 3.21 3.63 3.22 3.8 3.7 3.2 3.75 3.31 3.86 4 2.86 2.92 3.59 2.91 3.77 2.7 3.06 3.3 Also, a random sample of 20 students was selected from the non-U.S. citizen group of graduate students at the same university. Their grade point averages were as follows. 3.50 4.00 3.43 3.85 3.84 3.21 3.58 3.94 3.48 3.76 3.87 2.93 4.00 3.37 3.72 4.00 3.06 3.92 3.72 3.91 Test the null hypothesis that the proportion of graduate students with averages of 3.50 or higher is the same for both the U.S. citizens and the non-U.S. citizens

A carpenter is making doors that are 2058 millimeters tall. If the doors are too long they must be trimmed, and if they are too short they cannot be used. A sample of 5 doors is made, and it is found that they have a mean of 2047 millimeters with a standard deviation of 10 . Is there evidence at the 0.05 level that the doors are too short and unusable? State the null and alternative hypotheses for the above scenario.

A political scientist is interested in the effectiveness of a political ad about a particular issue. The scientist randomly asks 18 individuals walking by to see the ad and then take a quiz on the issue. The general public that knows little to nothing about the issue, on average, scores 50 on the quiz. The individuals that saw the ad scored an average of 49.61 with a standard deviation of 5.02. What can the political scientist conclude with an α of 0.01?

a) What is the appropriate test statistic?
---Select--- na z-test one-sample t-test independent-samples t-test related-samples t-test

b)
Population:
---Select--- the political ad general public the particular issue individuals walking by the ad
Sample:

c) Compute the appropriate test statistic(s) to make a decision about H₀.
(Hint: Make sure to write down the null and alternative hypotheses to help solve the problem.)
critical value =  ; test statistic =
Decision:  ---Select--- Reject H0 Fail to reject H0

d) If appropriate, compute the CI. If not appropriate, input "na" for both spaces below.
[  ,  ]

e) Compute the corresponding effect size(s) and indicate magnitude(s).
If not appropriate, input and/or select "na" below.
d =  ;   ---Select--- na trivial effect small effect medium effect large effect
r² =  ;   ---Select--- na trivial effect small effect medium effect large effect

f) Make an interpretation based on the results.

Individuals that watched the political ad scored significantly higher on the quiz than the general public.Individuals that watched the political ad scored significantly lower on the quiz than the general public.    Individuals that watched the political ad did not score significantly different on the quiz than the general public.

True or False? A hypothesis test is conducted at to test whether the population correlation coefficient is zero. If the sample size is 25 and the sample correlation coefficient is 0.6, then the critical values of the student t that define the upper and lower tail rejection areas are 2.069 and -2.069, respectively.

The developers of a new online game have determined from preliminary testing that the scores of players on the first level of the game can be modelled satisfactorily by a Normal distribution with a mean of 185 points and a standard deviation of 28 points. They would like to vary the difficulty of the second level in this game, depending on the player’s score in the first level. (a) The developers have decided to provide different versions of the second level for each of the following groups: (i) those whose score on the first level is in the lowest 25% of scores ii) those whose score on the first level is in the middle 50% of scores (iii) those whose score on the first level is in the highest 25% of scores. Use the information given above to determine the cut-off scores for these groups. (You may round each of your answers to the nearest whole number.) (b) In the second level of the game, the developers have also decided to give players an opportunity to qualify for a bonus round. Their stated aim is that players from group (i) should have 75% chance of qualifying for the bonus round, players from group (ii) should have 55% chance of qualifying for the bonus round and that players from group (iii) should have 30% chance of qualifying for this round. Let ?, ? and ? respectively denote the events that a player’s score on the first level was in the lowest 25% of scores, the middle 50% of scores and the highest 25% of scores, and let ? denote the event that the player qualifies for the bonus round. Use event notation to express the developers’ aim as a set of conditional probabilities. (c) Based on the developers’ stated aim, find the total probability that a randomly chosen player will qualify for the bonus round. (d) Given that a player has qualified for the bonus round, what is the probability that the player’s score on the first level was in the middle 50% of scores for that level? (e) Given that a player has not qualified for the bonus round, what is the probability that the player’s score on the first level was in the lowest 25% of scores for that level?

You are conducting a study to see if the proportion of voters who prefer the Democratic candidate is significantly larger than 54% at a level of significance of αα = 0.01. According to your sample, 38 out of 61 potential voters prefer the Democratic candidate.

1. For this study, we should use Select an answer t-test for a population mean z-test for a population proportion
2. The null and alternative hypotheses would be:
   Ho: ? p μ  ? = ≠ < >   (please enter a decimal)   
   H₁: ? p μ  ? = > < ≠   (Please enter a decimal)

3. The test statistic ? t z  =  (please show your answer to 3 decimal places.)
4. The p-value =  (Please show your answer to 4 decimal places.)
5. The p-value is ? > ≤  αα
6. Based on this, we should Select an answer reject accept fail to reject  the null hypothesis.
7. Thus, the final conclusion is that ...
   • The data suggest the population proportion is not significantly larger than 54% at αα = 0.01, so there is not sufficient evidence to conclude that the proportion of voters who prefer the Democratic candidate is larger than 54%.
   • The data suggest the populaton proportion is significantly larger than 54% at αα = 0.01, so there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the proportion of voters who prefer the Democratic candidate is larger than 54%
   • The data suggest the population proportion is not significantly larger than 54% at αα = 0.01, so there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the proportion of voters who prefer the Democratic candidate is equal to 54%.
8. Interpret the p-value in the context of the study.
   • There is a 9.68% chance that more than 54% of all voters prefer the Democratic candidate.
   • If the sample proportion of voters who prefer the Democratic candidate is 62% and if another 61 voters are surveyed then there would be a 9.68% chance of concluding that more than 54% of all voters surveyed prefer the Democratic candidate.
   • There is a 9.68% chance of a Type I error.
   • If the population proportion of voters who prefer the Democratic candidate is 54% and if another 61 voters are surveyed then there would be a 9.68% chance that more than 62% of the 61 voters surveyed prefer the Democratic candidate.
9. Interpret the level of significance in the context of the study.
   • If the proportion of voters who prefer the Democratic candidate is larger than 54% and if another 61 voters are surveyed then there would be a 1% chance that we would end up falsely concluding that the proportion of voters who prefer the Democratic candidate is equal to 54%.
   • If the population proportion of voters who prefer the Democratic candidate is 54% and if another 61 voters are surveyed then there would be a 1% chance that we would end up falsely concluding that the proportion of voters who prefer the Democratic candidate is larger than 54%
   • There is a 1% chance that the earth is flat and we never actually sent a man to the moon.
   • There is a 1% chance that the proportion of voters who prefer the Democratic candidate is larger than 54%.

In an introductory statistics class, there are 18 male and 22 female students. Two students are randomly selected (without replacement).

(a) Find the probability that the first is female

(b) Find the probability that the first is female and the second is male.

(c) Find the probability that at least one is female

I know that this question has to use the counting method, but i got confuse with how to start because i have to now find the probability of FIRST being a female, etc. Please provide workings with explanations alongside. Thank you in advance!
