In a study of police gunfire reports during a recent year, it was found that among 540 shots fired by New York City police, 210 hit their targets; among 283 shots fired by Los Angeles police, 80 hit their targets. We want to use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that New York police have a higher hit rate than the Los Angeles police. Let New York police be represented by p1. Determine the p-value and if this is a right-tailed, left-tailed, or two-tailed test.

A researcher gathered a sample of participants who volunteered for a studying of phobias. She measured anxiety level of participants as they viewed photos of spiders and again when they viewed puppies. Which statistical test is appropriate for this study and why?

Because the confidence interval limits v 0, it appears that the two proportions are V Because the confidence interval limits include V values, it appears that the proportion of people over 55 who dream in black and white is V the proportion for those under 25. c. An explanation for the results is that those over the age of 55 grew up exposed to media that was displayed in black and white. Can these results be used to verify that explanation? O A. No. The results speak to a possible difference between the proportions of people over 55 and under 25 who dream in black and white, but the results cannot be used to verify the cause of such a difference. O B. No. The results speak to a possible difference between the proportions of people over 55 and under 25 who dream in black and white, but the results are not statistically significant enough to verify the cause of such a difference. O C. Yes. The results can be used to verify the given explanation because difference in proportions is…

A study was conducted to determine the proportion of people who dream in black and white instead of color. Among 303 people over the age of 55, 79 dream in black and white, and among 300 people under the age of 25, 18 dream in black and white. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that the proportion of people over 55 who dream in black and white is greater than the proportion for those under 25. Complete parts (a) through (c) below. a. Test the claim using a hypothesis test. Consider the first sample to be the sample of people over the age of 55 and the second sample to be the sample of people under the age of 25. What are the null and alternative hypotheses for the hypothesis test? O A. Ho: P₁ = P₂ H₁: P₁ P2 O D. Ho: P₁ #P₂ H₁: P₁ = P2 Identify the test statistic. z=0 Z= (Round to two decimal places as needed.) Identify the P-value. P-value= (Round to three decimal places as needed.) What is the conclusion based on the hypothesis test? the significance level of a = 0.01, so…

A study was conducted to determine the proportion of people who dream in black and white instead of color. Among 318 people over the age of 55, 77 dream in black and white, and among 298 people under the age of 25, 16 dream in black and white. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the proportion of people over 55 who dream in black and white is greater than the proportion for those under 25. Complete parts (a) through (c) below. H4: P1 P2 H: P1 #P2 O D. Ho: P1 SP2 H1: P1#P2 O E. Ho: P1 P2 H1: P1 = P2 O F. Ho: P1 =P2 H1: P1 #P2 Identify the test statistic. z= 6.52 (Round to two decimal places as needed.) Identify the P-value. P-value = 0.000 (Round to three decimal places as needed.) What is the conclusion based on the hypothesis test? The P-value is less than the significance level of a = 0.05, so reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the proportion of people over 55 who dream in black and white is greater than the proportion…

About 4% of the population has a particular genetic mutation. 300 people are randomly selected.Find the mean for the number of people with the genetic mutation in such groups of 300. (Remember that means should be rounded to one more decimal place than the raw data.)

A statistics content developer at Aplia wanted to know whether study skills are related to memory quality. She invited student volunteers to perform an online memory task. The students saw a list of 60 words and were then asked to recognize a list of 10 words that were on the original list. Students were also asked to provide their GPAs.   Consider the following data set, which was collected from student volunteers in 2009. The table gives the frequency for five intervals of scores on the number of correctly identified words. Use the dropdown menus to complete the table by filling in the missing values for the proportions and percentages. Score Interval f Proportion Percentage 9–10 29 0.19 19% 7–8 53           5–6 50           3–4 22 0.14 14% 1–2 1 0.01 1%
