B) Suppose the business owners in the sample do as they plan. Compute the p-value for a hypothesis test that can be sued to determine if the proportion of business owners providing holiday gifts has decreased from the 2008 level.

A local company is interested in supporting environmentally friendly initiatives such as carpooling among employees. The company surveyed all of the 200 employees at the downtown offices. Employees responded as to whether or not they own a car and to the location of the home where they live. The results are shown in the table below. If the person owns a car, he or she is more likely to live elsewhere in the city than to live in the downtown area in the city. If the person does not own a car, he or she is more likely to live outside the city than to live in the city (downtown area or elsewhere). The person is more likely to own a car if he or she lives in the city (downtown area or elsewhere) than if he or she lives outside the city. The person is more likely to live in the downtown area in the city than elsewhere in the city. The person is more likely to own a car than not to own a car.

The accompanying table shows the result of a national election along with the vote predicted by several organizations in the days before the election. The sample sizes were typically a bit above 1,000 people, and the reported margin of error was around plus or minus 4 percentage points. The percentages for each poll may not sum to 100 because of voters who indicated they were undecided. Complete parts a through c. Click the icon to view the vote predictions and result. a. The News Network 1 poll predicted that 49% were going to vote for Candidate A, with a margin of error of plus or minus 4%. Explain what this means. Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer boxes to complete your choice. (Type integers or decimals. Do not round.) O A. The true proportion of voters for Candidate A is within percentage points of %. O B. The actual proportion of voters for Candidate A is likely to be more than percentage points away from O C. All samples have a sample proportion that is…

Suppose that a researcher is studying the wingspans of wild condors. To study this the researcher randomly selects 7 condors that live near the California Coast and 7 condors that live near the Grand Canyon for a total of 14 condors. The researcher measures the wingspan of each of these birds in inches and gets the following data. (Note: You may assume that there are about 400 condors in the wild) 94, 100, 102, 110, 115, 118, 119, 122, 123, 126, 128, 135, 136, 140 (All values in inches) (a) What sampling technique was used to collect this data? (b) Use this data to construct a 99% confidence interval for the average wingspan for California condors. Make sure to confirm all necessary conditions and interpret your interval. (Hint: This should be a 1-sample mean confidence interval) (c) Could you conclude that 99% of California condors will have wingspans inside the interval you found in (b)? Why or why not?

Assume that 135 surveys are completed. Of those surveyed, 61 responded positively to effectiveness, 65 responded positively to side effects, and 63 responded positively to cost. Also, 26 responded positively to both effectiveness and side effects, 29 to effectiveness and cost, 26 to side effects and cost, and 16 to none of the items. How many responded positively to all three?
