Question
In a recent Super Bowl, a TV network predicted that 52 % of the audience would express an interest in seeing one of its forthcoming television shows. The network ran commercials for these shows during the Super Bowl. The day after the Super Bowl, and Advertising Group sampled 71 people who saw the commercials and found that 36 of them said they would watch one of the television shows.

Always a skeptic, you decide to test this claim. A random sample of 12 seminar participants is chosen, and these participants are asked to record the number of times that they lost their tempers in the two weeks prior to the course. After the course is over, the same participants are asked to record the number of times that they lost their tempers in the next two weeks. The following table lists the results of the survey. Using these data, test the claim at the 0.10 level of significance assuming that the population distribution of the paired differences is approximately normal.

A random sample of 500 viewers in the Tampa-St. Petersburg, Florida, area last Monday night showed that 170 homes were tuned in to the ABC affiliate, 140 to the CBS affiliate, and 140 to the NBC affiliate, with the remainder viewing a cable station. At the 0.02 significance level, can we conclude that the guideline is still reasonable? Ho: The proportions are as stated. H: The proportions are not as stated. State the decision rule using 0.02 significance level. (Round your answer to 3 decimal places.) Reject HO if chi-square > Compute the value of chi-square. (Round your answer to 3 decimal places.)
