- A home improvement company is interested in improving customer satisfaction rate from the 58% currently claimed. The company sponsored a survey of 273 customers and found that 171 customers were satisfied. Determine whether sufficient evidence exists that the customer satisfaction rate is different than the claim by the company.arrow_forwardIn a previous poll, 41% of adults with children under the age of 18 reported that their family ate dinner together seven nights a week. Suppose that, in a more recent poll, 461 of 1173 adults with children under the age of 18 reported that their family ate dinner together seven nights a week. Is there sufficient evidence that the proportion of families with children under the age of 18 who eat dinner together seven nights a week has decreased? Use the a = 0.05 significance level.

- A study was performed to determine the percentage of people who wear life vests while out on the water. A researcher believed that the percentage was different for those who rode jet skis compared to those who were in boats. Out of 400 randomly selected people who rode a jet ski, 88% wore life vests. Out of 250 randomly selected boaters, 82.4% wore life vests. Using a 0.01 level of significance, test the claim that the proportion of people who wear life vests while riding a jet ski is not the same as the proportion of people who wear life vests while riding in a boat. Let jet skiers be Population 1 and let boaters be Population 2. Step 1 of 3: State the null and alternative hypotheses for the test. Fill in the blank below. H0: p1=p2 Ha: p1⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯p2 Step 2 of 3: Compute the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to two decimal places. Step 3 of 3: Draw a conclusion and interpret the decision.arrow_forwardA company claims that at least 94% of equipment supplied to a manufacturer is within specifications. A test of a sample of 200 pieces of equipment showed that 27 of them were faulty.

A study compared the effectiveness of three acne treatments and a placebo, all in gel form, applied twice daily for 12 weeks. The study's 517 teenage volunteers were randomly assigned to one of the four treatments. Success was assessed as clear or almost clear skin at the end of the 12 week period. The results of the study can be seen in the table below. Using the appropriate statistical test, determine if there is significant evidence that the four treatments perform differently. If so, how do they compare.arrow_forward
- Consider a drug testing company that provides a test for marijuana usage. Among 266 tested subjects, results from 27 subjects were wrong (either a false positive or a false negative).
