a. American adults strongly prefer watching movies at home or on their digital devices.

b. the high nonresponse rate prevents us from drawing a conclusion.

c. the sample is too small to draw any conclusion.

Artificial trees? An association of Christmas tree growers in Indiana wants to know if there is a difference in preference for natural trees between urban and rural households. So the association sponsored a survey of Indiana households that had a Christmas tree last year to find out. In a random sample of 160rural households, 64had a natural tree. In a separate random sample of 261urban households, 89had a natural tree. A 95%confidence interval for the difference (Rural 鈥 Urban) in the true proportion of households in each population that had a natural tree is -0.036to0.154. Does the confidence interval provide convincing evidence that the two population proportions are equal? Explain your answer.

Gray squirrel In many parts of the northern United States, two color variants of the Eastern Gray Squirrel鈥 gray and black鈥攁re found in the same habitats. A scientist studying squirrels in a large forest wonders if there is a difference in the sizes of the two color variants. He collects random samples of 40squirrels of each color from a large forest and weighs them. The 40black squirrels have a mean weight of 20.3ounces and a standard deviation of 2.1ounces. The 40 gray squirrels have a mean weight of 19.2ounces and a standard deviation of 1.9 ounces. Do these data provide convincing evidence at the 伪=0.013051526=0.200=20.0%=0.01significance level of a difference in the mean weights of all gray and black Eastern Gray Squirrels in this forest?
