A manufacturer tests a certain number of headsets that are produced each day. There is a 2.5% chance of finding a defective headset. If 280 units of that model are tested, the manufacturer would expect to find approximately headsets without any defects.

A statistical program is recommended. The authors of an article found that the speed of a prey (twips/s) and the length of a prey (twips ✕ 100) are good predictors of the time (seconds) required to catch the prey. (A twip is a measure of distance used by programmers.) Data were collected in an experiment in which subjects were asked to "catch" an animal of prey moving across his or her computer screen by clicking on it with the mouse. The investigators varied the length of the prey and the speed with which the prey moved across the screen. The following data are consistent with summary values and a graph given in the article. Each value represents the average catch time over all subjects. The order of the various speed-length combinations was randomized for each subject. Prey Length Prey Speed Catch Time 7 20 1.10 6 20 1.20 5 20 1.22 4 20 1.41 3 20 1.51 3 40 1.40 4 40 1.36 6 40 1.30 7 40 1.28 7 80 1.40 6 60 1.37 5 80 1.41 7 100 1.44 6 100 1.43 7 120…
A pollster wishes to estimate the number of left-handed scientists. How large a sample is needed in order to be 95% confident that the sample proportion will not differ from the true proportion by more than 4%? A previous study indicates that the proportion of left-handed scientists is 8%.
The U.S. Department of Transportation, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, reported that 77% of all fatally injured automobile drivers were intoxicated. A random sample of 26 records of automobile driver fatalities in Kit Carson County, Colorado, showed that 14 involved an intoxicated driver. Do these data indicate that the population proportion of driver fatalities related to alcohol is less than 77% in Kit Carson County? Use ? = 0.01. Solve the problem using both the traditional method and the P-value method. Since the sampling distribution of p̂ is the normal distribution, you can use critical values from the standard normal distribution as shown in the table of critical values of the z distribution. (Round the test statistic and the critical value to two decimal places. Round the P-value to four decimal places.) test statistic = critical value = P-value =

A poll was conducted on a representative sample of 600 adults living in the United States in order to investigate the decline in cable and satellite TV subscriptions. For this sample, 150 adults revealed that they are "cord cutters," (that is, they canceled their cable/satellite TV service and now only use a video streaming service). You want to estimate p, the true proportion of all US adults who are "cord cutters." Complete parts a through e. d. Give a practical interpretation of the confidence interval from part c. (Type integers or decimals rounded to three decimal places as needed. Use ascending order.) A. The probability that the true proportion of all US adults who are "cord cutters" is enter your response here lies between enter your response here and enter your response here. B. We can be enter your response here% confident that the true proportion of all US adults who are "cord cutters" lies between enter your response here and enter your…
without treatment, 20 out of 100 clients with depression will improve. After developing a new treatment for depression, you test it on 250 clients with depression and find that 75 show improvement. so the data support the idea that your treatment works?

A recent study evaluated how addicted teenagers become to nicotine once they start smoking. The response variable was the number of yes answers on a questionnaire called the Hooked on Nicotine Checklist (HONC). Of teenagers who had tried tobacco, the mean HONC score was 3.8 (s = 4.4) for the 141 females and 2.4 (s = 3.5) for the 178 males. Complete parts a through c below. a. Find the standard error comparing the sample means. Interpret. The standard error is se= 0.4540. (Round to four decimal places as needed.) What does the standard error indicate? ... OA. The standard error is the standard deviation of the sample for this study. OCT 28 OB. The standard error is the difference in standard deviations for the two populations. OC. The standard error is the standard deviation of the difference between x₁-x₂. D. The standard error describes the spread of the sampling distribution of x₁-x₂. b.

A researcher wants to know whether children with ADHD tend to watch more TV than children who are not diagnosed with the disorder. To examine this, a researcher obtains a sample of n = 36 children (ages 8 to 12 years) who have been diagnosed with ADHD. Each child is asked to keep a journal recording how much time each day is spent watching TV. The average for the sample is M = 4.9 hours/day. Assume that the average TV-watching time for the general population of 8-to-12-year-old children is µ = 4.1 hours/day with σ = 1.8. Is ADHD in children associated with an increased amount of TV-watching?
The authors of a paper randomly selected two samples of patients admitted to the hospital after suffering a stroke. One sample was selected from patients who received biofeedback weight training for 8 weeks, and the other sample was selected from patients who did not receive this training. At the end of 8 weeks, the time it took (in seconds) to stand from a sitting position and then to sit down again (called sit-stand-sit time) was measured for the people in each sample. Data consistent with summary quantities given in the paper are given below. For purposes of this exercise, you can assume that the samples are representative of the population of stroke patients who receive the biofeedback training and the population of stroke patients who do not receive this training.

A car company conducts crash tests of its new airbag system to evaluate its safety. One hundred cars are run into a solid concrete barrier at a speed of 35 miles per hour, and the chest compression of a crash test dummy is measured each time. They hope that the average compression if the test were repeated over and over (which we could think of as the population) would be about 2 inches, corresponding to an injury that would be painful but not fatal. In the hundred tests, the average chest compression in the crash test dummies was 2.1 inches, with an SD of 0.2 inches.(a) State the null and alternative hypotheses in terms of the problem.(b) What kind of box model will we use for this problem? A 0-1 box, or a box with other values on the tickets?(c) State the null and alternative hypotheses in terms of the box model (d) Compute the z test statistic and the p-value, using the sample average as your statistic as you compute z (e) What do you conclude?
