Gallup recently conducted a survey about the proportion of Americans who use e-cigarettes (vape). The following example is based on hypothetical data that is meant to be similar to the data collected by Gallup. The following table considers survey data about annual household income and whether or not a person vapes. Problem 2. We now wish to decide if there “use of e-cigarettes” and “income category” are dependent. To assist with this process, the table from before has been augmented...
A Gallup poll to survey the top concerns of Americans was conducted. Suppose that 743 women and 713 men were independently and randomly selected, and that 383 women and 282282 men chose the state of the economy as their biggest concern. Can we conclude that the proportion of women ( p1 ), choosing the state of the economy as their biggest concern, exceeds the proportion of men ( p2 )? Use a significance level of α=0.1 for the test. Step 1...
