Recent revenue shortfalls in a midwestern state led to a reduction in the state budget for higher education. To offset the reduction, the largest state university proposed a 25%tuition increase. It was determined that such an increase was needed simply to compensate for the lost support from the state. Separate random samples of 50freshmen, 50sophomores, 50juniors, and 50seniors from the university were asked whether they were strongly opposed to the increase, given that it was the minimum increase necessary to maintain the university's budget at current levels. Here are the results:

The conditions for carrying out the chi-square test in Exercise T11.1 are:

I. Independent random samples from the populations of interest.

II. All sample sizes are less than 10%of the populations of interest.

III. All expected counts are at least 5.

Which of the conditions is (are) satisfied in this case?

a. I only

b. II only

c. I and III only

d. II and III only

e. I, II, and III

Short Answer

Expert verified

The correct option is (e) i.e. I,II and III.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

We need to find the correct option for the given data.

02

Explanation

We know that

Random, independent (10%), and large counts are the parameters for performing a chi-square test of homogeneity/independence.

I. Random: I'm satisfied because the samples are all random.

II. Self-sufficient: Content since the 50pupils from each year represent less than 10%of all students (assuming that the university has at least 500students in each year).

III. High counts: I'm happy because all of the projected counts are at least 5.

As a result, all of the conditions are met, and (e) I, II, and III are right.

Treating ulcers Gastric freezing was once a recommended treatment for ulcers in the upper intestine. Use of gastric freezing stopped after experiments showed it had no effect. One randomized comparative experiment found that28of the 82gastric-freezing patients improved, while 30of the 78patients in the placebo group improved. We can test the hypothesis of 鈥渘o difference鈥 in the effectiveness of the treatments in two ways: with a two-sample z test or with a chi-square test.

a. State appropriate hypotheses for a chi-square test.

b. Here is Minitab output for a chi-square test. Interpret the P-value. What conclusion would you draw?

c. Here is Minitab output for a two-sample z test. Explain how these results are consistent with the test in part (a).

Tuition bills A random sample of U.S. adults was recently asked, 鈥淲ould you support or oppose major new spending by the federal government that would help undergraduates pay tuition at public colleges without needing loans?鈥 The two-way table shows the responses, grouped by age.

Do these data provide convincing evidence of an association between age and opinion about loan-free tuition in the population of U.S. adults?

The manager of a high school cafeteria is planning to offer several new types of food for student lunches in the new school year. She wants to know if each type of food will be equally popular so she can start ordering supplies and making other plans. To find out, she selects a random sample of 100students and asks them, 鈥淲hich type of food do you prefer: Ramen, tacos, pizza, or hamburgers?鈥 Here are her data:

The P-value for a chi-square test for goodness of fit is 0.0129. Which of the following is the most appropriate conclusion at a significance level of 0.05?

a. Because 0.0129 is less than =0.05 reject H0 . There is convincing evidence that the food choices are equally popular.

b. Because 0.0129 is less than =0.05 reject H0 There is not convincing

evidence that the food choices are equally popular.

c. Because 0.0129 is less than =0.05 reject H0 . There is convincing evidence that the food choices are not equally popular.

d. Because 0.0129 is less than =0.05 fail to reject H0 There is not convincing evidence that the food choices are equally popular.

e. Because 0.0129 is less than =0.05 fail to reject H0 There is convincing

evidence that the food choices are equally popular.

Is astrology scientific? The General Social Survey (GSS) asked a random sample of adults their opinion about whether astrology is very scientific, sort of scientific, or not at all scientific. Here is a two-way table of counts for people in the sample who had three levels of higher education:

a. State appropriate hypotheses for performing a chi-square test for independence in this setting.

b. Compute the expected counts assuming that H0is true.

c. Calculate the chi-square test statistic, df, and P-value.

d. What conclusion would you draw?

Video games (1.1) To determine if there is a relationship between age and playing video games, the Pew Research Center asked randomly selected adults for their age and if they 鈥渆ver play video games on a computer, TV, game console, or portable device like a cell phone.鈥3 Here is a two-way table summarizing the results of the study:

a. Construct a segmented bar graph to display the relationship between age group and response to the question about video games.

b. Describe the association shown in the segmented bar graph in part (a).
