A recent study indicated that 38 % of the 89 women over age 55 in the study were widows. Round up your answers to the next whole number for the following questions.Part 1 out of 2How large a sample must you take to be 95 % confident that the estimate is within 0.04 of the true proportion of women over age 55 who are widows?
A recent study in Europe looked at a large group of women of childbearing age. The researchers asked each woman how much alcohol they had consumed over the past 12 months. The researchers found that women who drank moderate amounts of alcohol were somewhat less likely to have infertility than women who did not (November, 2001). The study said it “controlled for age, income and religion”. (a) Based on the information above, was this a controlled experiment or an observational...

A university conducted a study of whether running is healthy for men and women over age 50. During the first eight years of the study, 1.1% of the 458 members of a fitness association died. We are interested in the proportion of people over 50 who ran and died in the same eight-year period. NOTE: If you are using a Student's t-distribution, you may assume that the underlying population is normally distributed. (In general, you must first prove that assumption,...

A recent study focused on the number of times men and women who live alone buy take-out dinner in a month. Assume that the distributions follow the normal probability distribution and the population standard deviations are equal. The information is summarized below. Statistic Men Women Sample mean 23.82 21.38 Sample standard deviation 5.91 4.87 Sample size 34 36 At the 0.01 significance level, is there a difference in the mean number of times men and women order take-out dinners in...

A survey of 1084 Californian males (age 18 and over) indicated more than half did not have a physical exam or blood cholesterol check. A medical researcher plans to sample men in the local community to see if similar results occur. How large a random sample would he need to estimate this proportion to within 0.05 and probability of 0.95?
