In a recent survey of gun control laws, a random sample of 564 women, 313 favored stricter gun control laws. In a random sample of 588 men, 307 favored stricter gun control laws. Can it be concluded at the .05 level of significance that a lower proportion of men favor stricter gun control than women? What is/are the critical value(s)? 0 -1.65 0 -2.33 or 2.33 O -1.65 or 1.65 1.65
Historically, the percentage of residents of a certain country who support stricter gun control laws has been 52%. A recent poll of 916 people showed 522 in favor of stricter gun control laws. Assume the poll was given to a random sample of people. Test the claim that the proportion of those favoring stricter gun control has changed. Perform a hypothesis test, using a significance level of 0.05. State the null and alternative hypotheses. H 0: The population proportion that...

Suppose that of all registered voters in a certain state favor banning the release of information from ect polls in presidential elections until after the poils in that state dose. A random sample of 25 registered voters is to be selected. Let x-number of registered voters in this random sample who favor the ban. (Use Table 9 in Appendix A. Round your answers to three decimal places) (a) What is the probability that more than 20 voters favor the ban?...
California had stricter gun laws than Texas. However, California had a greater proportion of gun murders than Texas. Here we test whether or not the proportion was significantly greater in California. A significant difference is one that is unlikely to be a result of random variation. The table summarizes the data for each state. The p̂'s are actually population proportions but you should treat them as sample proportions. The standard error (SE) is given to save calculation time if you...

Of the 200 envelopes carried by a mail track, 120 are from city K and the rest are from city J. Forty percent of the envelopes from city K are birthday cards, and thirty percent of the envelopes from city J are birthday cards. A random sample of 20 envelopes is randomly selected from the mail track. Find the variance of the number of birthday cards among a 20 randomly selected envelopes from this mail track.
The monthly utility bills in a city are normally distributed, with a mean of $100 and a standard deviation of $13. Find the probability that a randomly selected (a) less than $70.
