Hypothesis Test for a Population Proportion
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 making 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 51 stocks traded on the NYSE that day showed
that 5 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 = 0.02.

That increase of more than a minute was captured by thedepartment in data recorded between January and June of each year for the past decade.

- 35 Maps 0 canvas iClicker Student -... Mastering A&P Gini coefficient is a statistic used to measure income inequality within nations. It ranges from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating more inequality. At the extremes, a Gini score of 0 would mean that everyone in the country earns the exact same income, and a Gini score of 100 would mean that only one person in the country earns all the income. Some people argue that the larger a nation is, the more difficult it is to maintain a fair distribution of incomes. In other words, does income inequality increase as population size increases? You can test this question by conducting a bivariate regression on the data in the table below. ***Must show work on PDF for completing this computational table and for the following 9 questions*** (2) X: Population Country (3) (4) (5) (6) (7) Y: Gini Score (in millions) Sweden 8. 27 Ethiopia 77 Switzerland 11 43 Laos 45 9.

- Dropouts A Statistics professor has observed that forseveral years about 13% of the students who initiallyenroll in his Introductory Statistics course withdrawbefore the end of the semester. A salesman suggests thathe try a statistics software package that gets studentsmore involved with computers, predicting that it will cut the dropout rate. The software is expensive, and the sales-man offers to let the professor use it for a semester to see if the dropout rate goes down significantly. The professorwill have to pay for the software only if he chooses tocontinue using it.a) Is this a one-tailed or two-tailed test? Explain.b) Write the null and alternative hypotheses.c) In this context, explain what would happen if theprofessor makes a Type I error.d) In this context, explain what would happen if theprofessor makes a Type II error.e) What is meant by the power of this test?arrow_forwardHurry uparrow_forwardEXERCISE 15.
