7.88 Aluminum cans contaminated by fire. A gigantic NW warehouse located in Tampa, Florida, stores approxi- mately 60 million empty aluminum beer and soda cans. Recently, a fire occurred at the warehouse. The smoke from the fire contaminated many of the cans with black- spot, rendering them unusable. A University of South Florida statistician was hired by the insurance com- pany to estimate p, the true proportion of cans in the warehouse that were contaminated by the fire. How many aluminum cans should be randomly sampled to estimate the true proportion to within .02 with 90% confidence?

The average amount of time it takes for couples to further communicate with each other after their first date has ended is 2.35 days. Is this average different for blind dates? A researcher interviewed 70 couples who had recently been on blind dates and found that they averaged 2.5 days to communicate with each other after the date was over. Their standard devlation was 0.655 days. What can be concluded at the the a = 0.10 level of significance? a. For this study, we should use Select an answer b. The null and alternative hypotheses would be: Ho: ?v Select an answerv H: ?vSelect an answerv c. The test statistic ?v (please show your answer to 3 decimal places.) d. The p-value = (Please show your answer to 4 decimal places.) e. The p-value is ?v a f. Based on this, we should Select an answerv the null hypothesis. g. Thus, the final conclusion is that ... O The data suggest that the population mean is not significantly different from 2.35 at a = 0.10, so there is statistically…

The work week for adults in the US that work full time is normally distributed with a mean of 47 hours. A newly hired engineer at a start-up company believes that employees at start-up companies work more on average then most working adults in the US. She asks 12 engineering friends at start-ups for the lengths in hours of their work week. Their responses are shown in the table below. Test the claim using a 5% level of significance. Give answer to at least 4 decimal places.   Hours 46 49 58 55 49 68 45 48 46 45 51 50   What are the correct hypotheses? H0:                    hoursH1:                    hours Based on the hypotheses, find the following:Test Statistic=p-value= The correct decision is to       . The correct summary would be:       that the mean number of hours of all employees at start-up companies work more than the US mean of 47 hours.

Twenty different statistic students are randomly selected. For each of them,their body temperature (° F) is measured and their head circumference (in) ismeasured. Without doing any research or calculations, estimate the value of r. Forthis sample of paired data, what does r represent?

A national nursing organization is lobbying congress for sunding to hire more nurses nationwide. One of the arguments is that nurses, on average, work significantly longer than full time duty, assuming full time is 40 hours a week. A sample of n=9 nurses had the following work hours last week:  43, 45,48,41,45,50,50,53,48   Calculate the mean length of work hours for the sample.

We learned in Exercise 4.18 that about 90% of American adults had chickenpox before adulthood. We now consider a random sample of 120 Americans.   a) how many people in this sample would you expect to have had chickenpox in their childhood? And with what standard deviation?   b) Would you be surprised if there were 105 people who have had chickenpox in their childhood?

One cable company claims that it has excellent customer service. In fact, the company advertises that a technician will arrive within 35 minutes after a service call is placed. One frustrated customer believes this is not accurate, claiming that it takes over 35 minutes for the cable technician to arrive. The customer asks a simple random sample of 4 other cable customers how long it has taken for the cable technician to arrive when they have called for one. The sample mean for this group is 39.l minutes with a standard deviation of 2.6 minutes. Assume that the population distribution is approximately normal. Test the customer's claim at the 0.10 level of significance. Step 3 of 3: Draw a conclusion and interpret the decision.

One cable company claims that it has excellent customer service. In fact, the company advertises that a technician will arrive within 45 minutes after a service call is placed. One frustrated customer believes this is not accurate, claiming that it takes over 45 minutes for the cable technician to arrive. The customer asks a simple random sample of 25 other cable customers how long it has taken for the cable technician to arrive when they have called for one. The sample mean for this group is 47.9 minutes with a standard deviation of 7.6 minutes. Assume that the population distribution is approximately normal. Test the customer's claim at the 0.01 level of significance. Step 1 of 3: State the null and alternative hypotheses for the test. Fill in the blank below. Ho : μ = 45 Ha:μ 45
