Find the third quartile, i.e. , 75% of all days the stock is below what value ?arrow_forwardNews reports speak of an emerging crisis of childhood obesity in the United States. The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) is a government survey run every several years recording a number of vital statistics on a random sample of Americans. A body mass index (BMI) is computed for each individual in the sample based on the individual's height and weight. Here are sample results for 8-year-old boys over the past 40 years. The table gives the sample size for 3 different surveys, the sample mean and sample standard deviation. Suppose we want to run an ANOVA to see if there is a difference in mean BMI for the three surveys. Assume each survey is a random sample and there are no extreme outliers.What is the sample standard deviations for each survey? ...the NHES II study? ...the NHANES II study? ...the NHANES study?arrow_forwardConsider the following research questions/study scenarios. For each study, discuss the most appropriate methods for describing the data (graphically and numerically). What statistical method would be most appropriate for addressing the research questions? Be sure to provide a justification of the statistical method. What statistical test is needed, provide appropriate null and research hypotheses. An investigation of the association between drink preferences and the color of teeth is proposed. Subjects will be surveyed as to the type of drink most often consumed (coffee/tea. Juice, caramel-colored soda, water, or milk). A clinical exam will be performed after dental cleaning to determine the color of the teeth (reddish brown, reddish yellow, gray, reddish gray).arrow_forward

An independent research firm has been charged with conducting a sample survey to obtain more current information. (a) What sample size is needed if the research firm's goal is to estimate the current proportion of homes with a stay-at-home parent in which the father is the stay-at-home parent with a margin of error of 0.03? Use a 95% confidence level. (Round your answer up to the nearest whole number.) (b) Repeat part (a) using a 99% confidence level. (Round your answer up to the nearest whole number.) Need Help?
