In an election, suppose that 35% of voters support creating a new fire district. If we poll 166 of these voters at random, the probability distribution for the proportion of the polled voters that support creating a new fire district can be modeled by the normal distribution pictured below. The marks on the horizontal axis show 0, +1, -1, +2, -2.. standard deviations from the mean on the sampling distrubution. The boxes correspond to the mean, +2 standard deviations from...

In an certain species of newt, offspring are born either green or black. Suppose that 55% of these newts are born green. If we sample 1 65 of these newts at random, the probability distribution for the proportion of green newts in the sample can be modeled by the normal distibution pictured below. Complete the boxes accurate to two decimal places Note: The left box is 2 standard deviations below the mean. The middle box is the mean. And, the...

Suppose we conduct a poll to estimate the proportion of voters who favor a major presidential candidate. Assuming that 50 percent of the electorate could be in favor of the candidate, determine the sample size needed so that we are 95 percent confident that pˆ , the sample proportion of voters who favor the candidate, is within a margin of error of .01 of p, the population proportion of all voters who are in favor of the candidate. n =...

Only 18% of registered voters voted in the last election. Will voter participation increase for the upcoming election? Of the 352 randomly selected registered voters surveyed, 77 of them will vote in the upcoming election. What can be concluded at the α= 0.05 level of significance? For this study, we should use Select an answer t-test for a population mean or z-test for a population proportion The null and alternative hypotheses would be: H0:? μ p Select an answer ≠...

Prior to a local election, you would like to estimate the percentage of voters that are in favor of a 4% increase in gasoline sales tax in order to generate enough revenue for street repair. You decide to take a random sample of 400 local voters to see if at least 60% of voters support this initiative. Use this information to answer question 1a to 1e. (Hint: recall that for a Bernoulli random variable, the standard deviation is p(1 –...

7:27 Back Problem9.docx 1.) Suppose that a recent poll found that in a random sample of 2.692 registered voters, 69% supported an increase in the minimum wage. a) A test of significance for a proportion, also called a 1- proportion 7-test will allow us to determine if voters who are registered as independent will have a lower proportion than the overall group. Identify the unknown parameter b) State the null and alternative hypotheses. c) Assume that the 69% observed in...

Exercise 3 (Discrete Probability) The 2016 United States presidential election has been an interesting contest. A Fox News National Poll from June which surveyed 1004 registered voters placed former New Mexico Governor Gary Johnson in third place. which is expected, however polling in the double digits at 12%. (Third party candidates haven't performed well in recent years. The last time a third party managed to get votes in the Electoral College was 1968.)
