Q4. To determine the effectiveness of the advertising campaign for a new digital video recorder, management would like to know what proportion of the households is aware of the brand. The advertising agency thinks that this figure is close to .55. The management would like to have a margin of error of ±.025 at the 99% confidence level.
a) What sample size should be used?
b) A sample of the size calculated in a) has been taken. The management found the sample proportion to be .575. Construct a 99% CI for the true proportion.
c) If someone insists that the true proportion is .59. Based your answer to b), would you agree or disagree with this person? Why agree or why not agree?

The World Bank collected data on the percentage of GDP that a country spends on health expenditures ("Health expenditure," 2013) and also the percentage of woman receiving prenatal care ("Pregnant woman receiving," 2013). The data for the countries where this information are available for the year 2011 is in table #10.1.8. Create a scatter plot of the data and find a regression equation between percentage spent on health expenditure and the percentage of woman receiving prenatal care. Then use the regression equation to find the percent of woman receiving prenatal care for a country that spends 5.0% of GDP on health expenditure and for a country that spends 12.0% of GDP. Which prenatal care percentage that you calculated do you think is closer to the true percentage? Why?

According to the Centers for Disease Control, the mean number of cigarettes smoked per day by individuals who are daily smokers is 18.1. A researcher claims that retired adults smoke less than the general population of daily smokers. To test this claim, she obtains a random sample of 25 retired adults who are current smokers, and records the number of cigarettes smoked on a randomly selected day. The data result in a sample mean of 16.8 cigarettes and a standard deviation of 4.8 cigarettes. Do the data support the claim that retired adults who are daily smokers smoke less than the general population of daily smokers? Conduct a hypothesis test at α = 0.10. Assume the population is normally distributed. Hint: σ is unknown, and this is a one-tailed test. (5 points) State the hypotheses 〖 H〗_0: H_1: b. Compute test statistic (Round to the nearest 100th) c. Find critical value (Round to the nearest 100th) d. State decision rule: e. State your conclusion. First, state either “Reject the null hypothesis” or “Fail to reject it.” Then, interpret your conclusion:

A government official is in charge of allocating social programs throughout the city of Vancouver. He will decide where these social outreach programs should be located based on the percentage of residents living below the poverty line in each region of the city. He takes a simple random sample of 120 people living in Gastown and finds that 21 have an annual income that is below the poverty line.
Part i) The proportion of the 120 people who
are living below the poverty line, 21/120, is a:
A. variable of interest.
B. parameter.
C. statistic.
Part ii) Use the sample data to compute a 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of Gastown residents living below the poverty line.
(Please carry answers to at least six decimal places in intermediate steps. Give your final answer to the nearest three decimal places).

We assume that our wages will increase as we gain experience and become more valuable to our employers. Wages also increase because of inflation. By examining a sample of employees at a given point in time, we can look at part of the picture. How does length of service (LOS) relate to wages? The data here (data426.dat) (see below) is the LOS in months and wages for 60 women who work in Indiana banks. Wages are yearly total income divided by the number of weeks worked. We have multiplied wages by a constant for reasons of confidentiality.
(a) Plot wages versus LOS. Consider the relationship and whether or not linear regression might be appropriate. (Do this on paper. Your instructor may ask you to turn in this graph.)
(b) Find the least-squares line. Summarize the significance test for the slope. What do you conclude?
Wages = _________ + __________ LOS
t = _________
P = _________
(c) State carefully what the slope tells you about the relationship between wages and length of service. This answer has not been graded yet.
(d) Give a 95% confidence interval for the slope.

First National Bank employs three real estate appraisers whose job is to establish a property’s market value before the bank offers a mortgage to a prospective buyer. It is imperative that each appraiser values a property with no bias. Suppose First National Bank wishes to check the consistency of the recent values that its appraisers have established. The bank asked the three appraisers to value (in $1,000s) three different types of homes: a cape, a colonial, and a ranch. The results are shown in the accompanying table. (You may find it useful to reference the q table.)
Appraiser | |||
House Type | 1 | 2 | 3 |
Cape | 425 | 415 | 430 |
Colonial | 530 | 550 | 540 |
Ranch | 390 | 400 |
380 If average values differ by house type, use Tukey’s HSD method
at the 5% significance level to determine which averages differ.

c is not found in the table, use the average of
corresponding upper & lower studentized range values. Negative
values should be indicated by a minus sign. Round your answers to 2
decimal places.) |
