Ages of Head Start Program Students The Head Start Program provides a wide range of services to low-income children up to the age of 5 and their families. Its goals are to provide services to improve social and learning skills and to improve health and nutrition status so that the participants can begin school on an equal footing with their more advantaged peers. The distribution of ages for participating children is as follows: 4% five-year-olds, 52% four-year-olds, 34% three-year-olds, and 10% under three years. When the program was assessed in a particular region, it was found that of the 200 participants, 10 were 5 years old, 99 were 4 years old, 80 were 3 years old, and 11 were under 3 years. Is there sufficient evidence at a=0.05 that the proportions differ from that of the program? Use the P-value method. Part 1 of 5 Identify the claim with the correct hypothesis. Ho: The distribution of ages for children participating in the Head Start Program is as follows: 4% five-year-olds, 52% four- year-olds, 34% three-year-olds, and 10% under three years. Not claim H: The distribution is not the same as stated in the null hypothesis. Claim Part: 1/5 Part 2 of 5 Compute the test value. Round your answer to at least three decimal places

Background: Morris Saldov conducted a study in Eastern and Central Newfoundland in 1988 to examine public attitudes towards social spending. In particular, the study tried to determine if knowing someone on public assistance (yes, no) affected one's views on social spending (too little, about right, too much). The data from the study is summarized in the table below, Yes No Total Too little 39 8 47 About right 16 12 28 Too much 8 8 16 Total 63 28 91 Source: Morris Saldov, Public Attitudes to Social Spending in Newfoundland," Canadian Review of Social Policy, 26, November 1990, pages 10-14. Directions: Conduct a chi-square test for independence to determine if the association between knowing someone on public assistance and views on social spending is statistically significant. 1. Choose the correct null and alternative hypotheses. Ho: There is an association between knowing someone on public assistance and views on social spending. Ha There is no association between knowing someone on…

The head start program provides a wide range of services to low-income children up to the age of 5 years and their families. Its goals are to provide services to improve social and learning skills and to improve health and nutrition status so that the participants can begin school on an equal footing with their more advantaged peers. The distribution of ages for participating children is as follows 14% five-year-olds, 48% four-year-olds, 24% three-year-olds, and 14% under three years. When the program was assessed in a particular region, it was found that of the 221 randomly selected participants, 33 were 5 years old, 97 were 4 years old, 64 were 3 years old, 27 were under 3 years old. Perform a test to see if there sufficient evidence at a = 0.10 that the region's proportions differ from the national proportions. The correct hypotheses are: Ho: The regional distribution is a good fit to the national distribution. HA: The regional distribution is not a good fit to the national…
