A poll surveyed people in six countries to assess attitudes toward a variety of alternate forms of energy. Suppose the data in the following table are a portion of the poll's findings concerning whether people favor or oppose the building of new nuclear power plants.

(a)

How large was the sample in this poll?

(b)

Conduct a hypothesis test to determine whether people's attitude toward building new nuclear power plants is independent of country.

State the null and alternative hypotheses.

H₀: The attitude toward building new nuclear power plants is mutually exclusive of the country.
H_a: The attitude toward building new nuclear power plants is not mutually exclusive of the country.

H₀: The attitude toward building new nuclear power plants is not independent of the country.
H_a: The attitude toward building new nuclear power plants is independent of the country.

H₀: The attitude toward building new nuclear power plants is independent of the country.
H_a: The attitude toward building new nuclear power plants is not independent of the country.

H₀: The attitude toward building new nuclear power plants is not mutually exclusive of the country.
H_a: The attitude toward building new nuclear power plants is mutually exclusive of the country.

Find the value of the test statistic. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

Find the p-value. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

p-value =

State your conclusion.

Do not reject H₀. We conclude that the attitude toward building new nuclear power plants is not independent of the country.

Reject H₀. We conclude that the attitude toward building new nuclear power plants is not independent of the country.   

Do not reject H₀. We cannot conclude that the attitude toward building new nuclear power plants is independent of the country.

Reject H₀. We cannot conclude that the attitude toward building new nuclear power plants is independent of the country.

(c)

Using the percentage of respondents who "strongly favor" and "favor more than oppose," which country has the most favorable attitude toward building new nuclear power plants?

Great Britain or France or Italy or Spain or Germany or United States

Which country has the least favorable attitude?

Instruction

This task is about using the Java Collections Framework to accomplish some basic textprocessing tasks. These questions involve choosing the right abstraction (Collection, Set, List, Queue, Deque, SortedSet, Map, or SortedMap) to efficiently accomplish the task at hand. The best way to do these is to read the question and then think about what type of Collection is best to use to solve it. There are only a few lines of code you need to write to solve each of them. Unless specified otherwise, sorted order refers to the natural sorted order on Strings, as defined by String.compareTo(s). Part 0 in the assignment is an example specification and solution.

Explain how Franklin Roosevelt and the New Deal attempted to solve the Great Depression. Who supported the New Deal? Who criticized it? In what ways did the New Deal succeed? In what ways did it fail? ESSAY QUESTION PLEASE ANSWER FULLY.

The average tensile strength of carbon fiber cloth is 600 MPa. You are testing a new weaving pattern for the carbon fiber threads and want to know if this new weave causes a difference in the tensile strength. After testing 18 samples of the new weave, you found a sample average of 585 MPa with a standard deviation of 34 MPa. At a significance level of 0.05, test to see if this new weave has a different mean than 600 MPa.

5. A company is researching the effectiveness of a new website design to decrease the time to access a website. Five website users were randomly selected and their times (in seconds) to access the website with the old and new designs were recorded. The results follow.

  

Let α = 0.05. Is the mean time to access the new website design shorter, or is (time for the old design - time for the new design) greater than zero? Express your answer in terms of the null hypothesis.

When new technologies arrive, only a few customers adopt such technologies. A large number of customer remain sceptical about the product. The cost of the new technology remain high. As a result it take long time for the businesses to focus on the new technology until the dominant design comes and the price become affordable by the large number of consumers. From your point of view, what might be the reasons established firms might resist adopting a new technology.

Second National Bank is considering adding 5 new ATM machines. Each machine costs $25,000 and installation costs are $15,000 per machine. Second National Bank expects the new machines to save $0.33 per transaction on 250,000 transactions per year on the new machines. It also expects the new machines to last for 15 years. If the bank needs to earn 14 percent return on this investment, what is the net present value of this investment?
