4) Annual expenditures for prescription drugs was $838 per person in the Northeast part of the country. sample of 60 individuals in the Midwest was taken and showed a per person annual expenditure for prescription drugs of $745. Does the sample data support the conclusion that the population annual expenditure for prescription drugs per person is lower in the Midwest than the Northeast.

Researchers at Purdue University and Wichita State University found that airlines are doing a better job of getting passengers to their destinations on time.t AirTran Airways and Southwest Airlines were among the leaders in on-time arrivals with both having 88% of their flights arriving on time. But for the 12% of flights that were delayed, how many minutes were these flights late? Sample data showing the number of minutes that delayed flights were late are provided in the file named AirDelay. Data are shown for both airlines. Assume population variances are unknown and unequal. AirTran Southwest 34 59 | 43 30 3 45 64 42 33 66 32 42 | 85 30 48 105 45 28 | 38 85 110 50 10 33 50 26 70 75 45 63 52 83 78 27 70 42 35 33 64 65 27 90 38 52 76 (a) Formulate the hypotheses that can be used to test for a difference between the population mean minutes late for delayed flights by these two airlines. (Let u, = population mean minutes late for delayed Airtran flights and u, = population mean minutes…

Suppose an internet marketing company wants to determine the current percentage of customers who click on ads on their smartphones. How many customers should the company survey in order to be 90% confident that the estimated proportion is within five percentage points of the true population proportion of customers who click on ads on their smartphones?

According to an article in Newsweek, the natural ratio of girls to boys is  100:105 . In China, the birth ratio is  100:116  ( 46.3%  girls). Suppose you don’t believe the reported figures of the percent of girls born in China. You conduct a study. In this study, you count the number of girls and boys born in  100  randomly chosen recent births. There are  42  girls and  58  boys born of the  100 . Based on your study, do you believe that the percent of girls born in China is  46.3 ? A.)What is the test statistic?    Round your answer to three decimal places. (z / t ) =  B.) What is the  p -value? Round your answers to four decimal places. p -value  = C.) Let  α=0.05 .      Decision: (Reject the null hypothesis / do not reject the null hypothesis)       Reason for decision: ( a < p-value / a > p-value)       Conclusion: There is (insufficient/ insufficient)  evidence to conclude that the percentage of girls born in China is different from  46.3% .

A data collection method is described to investigate a difference in means. Determine which data analysis method is more appropriate: paired data difference in means or difference in means with two separate groups. In a study to determine whether the color red increases how attractive men find women, one group of men rate the attractiveness of a woman after seeing her picture on a red background and another group of men rate the same woman after seeing her picture on a white background. O Paired data difference in means O Difference in means with two separate groups 1

Thirty-two percent of all Americans drink bottled water more than once a week (Natural resources Defense Council, December 4, 2015). Suppose you have been hired by the Natural Resources Defense Council to investigate bottled water consumption in St. Paul. You plan to select a sample of St. Paulites to estimate the proportion who drink bottled water more than once a week. Assume the population proportion of St. Paulites who drink bottled water more than once a week is 0.32, the same as the overall proportion of Americans who drink bottled water more than once a week. E(p bar) = Based upon a sample of  540 St. Paulites, what is the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.08 of the population proportion (to 4 decimals). Probability = Suppose you select a sample of 230 St. Paulites. Show the sampling distribution of p bar (to 4 decimals). Based upon a smaller sample of only 230 St. Paulites, what is the probability that the sample proportion will be within  0.08 of the…

The U.S. Census Bureau serves as the leading source of quantitative data about the na- tion's people and economy. The following crosstabulation shows the number of house- holds (1000s) and the household income by the highest level of education for the head of household (U.S. Census Bureau website, 2013). Only households in which the head has a high school diploma or more are included.

The council leaders of a small town would like to determine the average number of people living in each household. To accomplish this, they send a questionnaire to each residence listed in the town address records, asking the head of the household to record the number of people living in the dwelling. They follow this up with visits to those households that have not responded to the questionnaire until the data collection process is complete. Which of the following is the best description of the method for data collection used by the council leaders? (A) A convenience sample (B) A simple random sample (C) A stratified random sample (D) A cluster random sample (E) A census
