Section 8.3 Exercise 5. A random sample of 40 television viewers was asked if they had watched the current week's lost episode. The following data represent their responses: no no no yes no no no yes no yes no no no yes no no no по yes no yes no no no yes no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no a. Calculate the sample proportion p of viewers in the sample who indicated they watched the current week's episode of Lost. b. Compute a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of viewers in the sample who indicated they watched the current week's episode of Lost. c. Calculate the smallest sample size that would produce a margin of error of 0.025 if the population proportion is well represented by the sample proportion in part a

The World Bank collects information on the life expectancy of a person in each country ("Life expectancy at," 2013) and the fertility rate per woman in the country ("Fertility rate," 2013). The data for 12 randomly selected countries for the year 2011 are shown in the table below. Table: Data of Fertility Rates versus Life Expectancy   Fertility Rate Life Expectancy 1.7 77 5.8 55 2.2 70 2.1 76 1.8 75 2.0 78 2.6 73 1.5 81 6.9 54 2.9 72 4.7 63 6.8 57 The most commonly used type of correlation is Pearson correlation, named after Karl Pearson, introduced around the turn of the 20th century. Pearson's r measures the linear relationship between two variables, say X and Y. Find the Pearson’s correlation coefficient for the above data In reference to the calculated correlation coefficient above, describe the strength of the correlation. Briefly give an explanation to meaning of the above results. Obtain the…

Approximately 8% of males experience red-green color blindness. Suppose a random sample of 200 men is chosen.

A television station wishes to study the relationship between viewership of its 11 p.m. news program and viewer age (18 years or less, 19 to 35, 36 to 54, 55 or older). A sample of 250 television viewers in each age group is randomly selected, and the number who watch the station’s 11 p.m. news is found for each sample. The results are given in the table below.      Age Group     Watch11 p.m. News? 18 or less 19 to 35 36 to 54 55 or Older Total Yes 49 59 61 84 253 No 201 191 189 166 747 Total 250 250 250 250 1,000     (a) Let p1, p2, p3, and p4 be the proportions of all viewers in each age group who watch the station’s 11 p.m. news. If these proportions are equal, then whether a viewer watches the station’s 11 p.m. news is independent of the viewer’s age group. Therefore, we can test the null hypothesis H0 that p1, p2, p3, and p4 are equal by carrying out a chi-square test for independence. Perform this test by setting α = .05. (Round your answer to 3 decimal places.)…
