The manager of an assembly process wants to determine whether or not the number of defective articles manufactured depends on the day of the week the articles are produced. She collected the following information. Is there sufficient evidence to reject the hypothesis that the number of defective articles is independent of the day of the week on which they are produced? Use α = 0.05.
Day of Week | M | Tu | W | Th | F |
Nondefective | 92 | 95 | 95 | 89 | 88 |
Defective | 5 | 10 | 10 | 9 | 12 |
(a) Find the test statistic. (Give your answer correct to two
decimal places.)
(ii) Find the p-value. (Give your answer bounds
exactly.)

The following table is from a publication. The individuals in the following table have an eye irritation, a nose irritation, or a throat irritation. They have only one of the three. Is there sufficient evidence to reject the hypothesis that the type of ear, nose, or throat irritation is independent of the age group at a level of significance equal to 0.05? Age (years) Type of Irritation 18-29 30-44 45-64 65 and Older Eye 435 573 351 53 Nose 932...
A health club manager wants to determine whether the number of days per week that college students exercise is related to gender. A random sample of 275 college students is selected and the results are classified as shown in the table. At α 0.05, is there enough evidence to conclude that the number of days a student exercises per week is related to gender? Number of days of exercise per week Gender 0-1 2-3 4-5 6-7 Tota Male 40 53...
A new operator was recently assigned to a crew of workers who perform a certain job. From the records of the number of units of work completed by each worker each day last month, a sample of size five was randomly selected for each of the two experienced workers and the new worker. At the α = .05 level of significance, does the evidence provide sufficient reason to reject the claim that there is no difference in the amount of...

The quality control manager at a compact fluorescent light bulb (CFL) factory needs to determine whether the mean life of a large shipment of CFLs is equal to 7.496 hours. The population standard deviation is 92 hours. A random sample of 64 light bulbs indicatos a sample mean life of 7,473 hours. a. At the 0.05 level of significance, is there evidence that the mean life is different from 7,496 hours? b. Compute the p-value and interpret its meaning. c....
