- Please answerarrow_forwardSolve with steps Please.arrow_forwardIn politics, marketing, etc. we often want to estimate a percentage or proportion p. One calculation in statistical polling is the margin of error - the largest (reasonble) error that the poll could have. For example, a poll result of 72% with a margin of error of 4% indicates that p is most likely to be between 68% and 76% (72% minus 4% to 72% plus 4%). In a (made-up) poll, the proportion of people who like dark chocolate more than milk chocolate was 44% with a margin of error of 2.2%. Describe the conclusion about p using an absolute value inequality. The answer field below uses the symbolic entry option in Mobius. That lets you type in a vertical bar | to represent absolute values. Also, when you type in and then =, the symbolic entry option will automatically convert that to >.arrow_forward
- Is the average time to complete an obstacle course shorter when a patch is placed over the right eye than when a patch is placed over the left eye? Thirteen randomly selected volunteers first completed an obstacle course with a patch over one eye and then completed an equally difficult obstacle course with a patch over the other eye. The completion times are shown below. "Left" means the patch was placed over the left eye and "Right" means the patch was placed over the right eye. Time to Complete the Course Right 47 42 50 42 48 47 48 42 Left 50 43 52 43 51 46 50 43 Assume a Normal distribution. What can be concluded at the the αα = 0.10 level of significance level of significance?

- A college president wanted to know how 10-year-after-graduation salaries for academic majors (English, psychology, math, etc.) compared to salaries for careeroriented majors (business, engineering, computer science, etc.). She matched 84 academic majors at her college with 84 career-oriented majors on the basis of SAT scores and GPA. She found MAcademic = $59,250, MCareer =$61,000, sD = 9,500. Use an alpha of .05 and a two-tailed test to determine if there is a difference in salaries.arrow_forwardIf the proportion of Heads is .25 out of 200 flips, what is the p-value?
