We are in the middle of the election season with some states still having their state elections and voting for the Democratic nominee. However, since Bernie Sanders dropped out of the race, Joe Biden has become the presumptive Democratic nominee who will run against Donald Trump for the presidency in November. A recent poll from a national university was conducted by telephone with 754 registered voters from March 18 to 22, 2020. One of the questions they asked was:
If the election for President was today, would you vote for … Donald Trump the Republican or Joe Biden the Democrat? [NAMES WERE ROTATED] [If UNDECIDED: If you had to vote for one of the following candidates at this moment, who do you lean toward – Donald Trump or Joe Biden?]
Create confidence intervals for the percentage of registered voters who will vote for Biden and for Trump, respectively. You should have two separate confidence intervals, one for each of them.
A news report citing this poll…
Your local school board wants to determine the proportion of people who plan on voting for the school levy in the upcoming election. They conduct a random phone poll, where they contact 150 individuals and ask them whether or not they plan on voting for the levy. Of these 150 respondents, 78 people say they plan on voting for the levy. The school board wants to determine whether or not the data supports the idea that more than 50% of people plan on voting for the levy. Are all three conditions met for a Hypothesis Test in this scenario?
No, only one is met
No, none of them are met.
No, only two are met.
It is impossible to tell
Yes, all three are met.

Jane obtains a list of all the workers in the department, randomly picks 20 names from the list, and asks those coworkers if they have children. She finds that 72% of those surveyed have children. Sam waits in the break room one morning and asks the first 20 coworkers that pass by if they have children. He finds that 85% of those surveyed have children.

The day before the election, a telephone poll of 400 randomly selected registered voters was conducted. 131 said they'd vote for Brown, 259 said they'd vote for Feliz, and 10 were undecided.Give the sample statistic for the proportion of voters surveyed who said they'd vote for Brown. Note: The proportion should be a fraction or decimal, not a percent. This sample statistic suggests that we might expect of the 7000 registered voters to vote for Brown.arrow_forward
