14. (11pt) The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) publishes statistics on the number of automobile crashes that people in various age groups have. Young people, aged 18-24, have an accident rate of 12%, meaning that, on average, 12 out of every 100 young people per year had an accident. A researcher claims that the population proportion of young drivers having accidents has changed since the time of the NTSB data. Her study examined 1000 young drivers, aged 18-24, and found...
13. (11pt) Automobile manufacturers are very interested in improving the average gas mileage of their newer vehicles. One manufacturer knows that for their hybrid model car, the gas mileages are normally distributed with a mean of 32 mpg. The new model of this car is about to ship out, so the manufacturer randomly selects a sample of 7 new hybrid cars and determines that the mean gas mileage is 29.5 mpg with a standard deviation of 1.32 mpg. Is there...
12. A researcher wants to estimate the average attitude towards the new feature in Google called "Froogle" using a 7pt Likert scale so that the estimate will be within ± .3 of the true population value. What size sample should this research collect? You can assume a 95% confidence level is desired. Also, past studies indicate that the population standard deviation of constructs measuring attitude towards new search features like "Froogle" is 1.23 13 Suppose the Division of Tourism is...

An advertising executive wants to estimate the mean weekly amount of time consumers spend watching traditional television daily. Based on previous studies, the standard deviation is assumed to be 23 minutes. The executive wants to estimate, with 99% confidence, the mean weekly amount of time to within + 6 minutes. a. What sample size is needed? b. If 95% confidence is desired, how many consumers need to be selected? a. The sample size required for...
I need help with the proportion. My teacher wants us
