- You may need to use the appropriate appendix table or technology to answer this question. Advertisers contract with internet service providers and search engines to place ads on websites. They pay a fee based on the number of potential customers who click on their ad. Unforțunately, click fraud-the practice of someone clicking on an ad solely for the purpose of driving up advertising revenue–has become a problem. Businessweek reports that 4C percent of advertisers claim they have been a victim of click fraud. Suppose a simple random sample of 390 advertisers will be taken to learn more about how they are affected by this practice. (Round your answers to four decimal places.) (a) What is the probability that the sample proportion will be within ±0.04 of the population proportion experiencing click fraud? (b) What is the probability that the sample proportion will be greater than 0.45?arrow_forwardIn February 2021, the Chicago Tribune reported:“The overdose epidemic that has ravaged Chicago has not spared the nearby suburbs, some of which have death rates comparable to anything seen in the city, according to a report released this week by the Cook County Department of Public Health. ZIP codes in the towns of Worth, Broadview, Maywood, and Forest Park, areas that “have substantially lower median household incomes and higher poverty rates,” have been especially hard-hit, the report said.”In the article, they claimed that lower incomes were associated with higher overdose death rates and that overdose death rates are increasing over time. The data you have been analyzing wasn’t focused on Chicago, obviously. But do your results support the general gist of the statistical argument being made in this Tribune excerpt? Please address:• Do overdose death rates appear to be associated with per capita income (use scatterplot)?• Do overdose death rates appear to be increasing over time…arrow_forwardIn May 2008, CNN reported that Sports Utility Vehicles (SUVs) are plunging toward the "endangered list". Due to soaring oil prices and environmental concerns, consumers are replacing gas-guzzling vehicles with fuel-efficientsmaller cars. As a result, there has been a big drop in the demand for new as well as used SUVs. A sales manager of a used car dealership for SUVs believes that it takes more than 90 days, on average, to sell an sUV. In order to test his claim, he samples 40 recently sold SUVs and find that it took an average of 95 days to sell an SUV. He believes that the population standard deviation is fairly stable at 20 days. Determine if the sales manager's claim is justifiable at 0.05arrow_forward
- Recent research commissioned by Vodafone suggests that older workers are the happiest employees (BBC News, July 21, 2008). The report documents that 70% of older workers in England feel fulfilled, compared with just 50% of younger workers. A demographer believes that an identical pattern does not exist in Asia. A survey of 120 older workers in Asia finds that 75 feel fulfilled. A similar survey finds that 58% of 210 younger workers feel fulfilled. (You may find it useful to reference the appropriate table: z table or t table) At the 5% level of significance, test if older workers in Asia feel less fulfilled than their British counterparts. a-1.

Five of these people are superspreaders. Superspreaders do not get sick, but will always be infected. Out of the remaining infected people, 50% do not get sick, and do not isolate, but will spread the disease for a week and then will no longer be infected. 35% will self-isolate and get better. The remaining 15% get sick and are admitted to hospital. Within a week, a superspreader will infect 0.1% of the population. A spreader is only infected for a week but will infect 0.01% of the population. Everyone in self-isolation will recover within a week. 50% of people in hospital will die, while the other 50% make a full recovery. Question: A vaccination takes at least 20 weeks to produce.

- Many investors and financial analysts believe the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) gives a good barometer of the overall stock market. On January 31, 2006, 9 of the 30 stocks makıng up the DJIA increased in price (The Wall Street Journal, February 1, 2006). On the basis of this fact, a financial analyst claims we can assume that 30% of the stocks traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) went up the same day A sample of 78 stocks traded on the NYSE that day showed that 21 went up. You are conducting a study to see if the proportion of stocks that went up is is significantly less than 0.3. You use a significance level of a 0.001. What is the test statistic for this sample?
