A group of 5 friends are playing poker one night, and one of the friends decides to try out a new game. They are using a standard 52-card deck. The dealer is going to deal the cards face up. There will be a round of betting after everyone gets one card. Another round of betting after each player gets a second card, etc. Once a total of 7 cards have been dealt to each player, the player with the best hand will win. However, if any player is dealt one of the designated cards, the dealer collects all cards, shuffles, and starts over.
The designated cards are: 9 of Spades, 10 of Hearts, 2 of Diamonds, 7 of Clubs. The players wish to determine the likelihood of actually getting to play a hand without mucking the cards and starting over.
In how many ways can you deal the cards WITHOUT getting one of the designated cards? (Hint: Consider how may cards are in the deck that are NOT one of the designated cards and consider how many cards need to be dealt in order for each player to have 7 cards.)
In how many ways can you deal each player 7 cards, regardless of whether the designated cards come out?
What is the probability of a successful hand that will go all the way till everyone gets 7 cards? (Round your answer to 4 decimal places.)
Recall, while using your calculator, that E10 means to move the decimal place 10 places to the right.

A statewide census examined the number of beds in households and reported a mean (μ) of 2.25 beds and standard deviation (σ) of 1.9 beds per household. But, since I live in a neighborhood with larger families, I have a hunch that the average number of beds in households will be higher in my neighborhood. To test this idea, I randomly picked 25 families in my neighborhood and surveyed them on the number of beds in their home. I would like to perform a Z test to see if the average number of beds in households in my neighborhood is significantly higher than the statewide average. The significance level for my Z test was set at α = .10.

a) What is the dependent variable in this study? b) What should be my null and alternative hypotheses? State each hypothesis using both words and statistical notation. Hint: I am interested in the idea of my neighbors having more beds per household than the state average, so the hypotheses would be directional. c) Calculate the sample mean. d) Calculate standard error (SE, which is the standard deviation of the sampling distribution) e) Calculate the Z statistic (which indicates where our sample mean is located on the sampling distribution) f) Specify whether the hypothesis test should be a two-tailed or a one-tailed test, and explain the rationale for the choice. g) Determine the critical value for Z h) Compare obtained Z and critical Z and then make a decision about the result of the hypothesis test: Explicitly state “reject” or “fail to reject” the null hypothesis i) Write a 1-2 sentence conclusion interpreting the results (you can simply restate the accepted hypothesis or explain it in another way) j) Calculate the raw and standardized effect sizes k) If the test was done with α level of .05, using the same directional hypotheses, what would be the critical Z value from the Z table? What would be the result of the hypothesis test (in terms of rejecting or failing to reject the null hypothesis)? l) Compare the hypothesis tests result when α = .05 and when α = .10. Were the results the same? Why or why not?
