Many cities around the United States are installing LED streetlights, in part to combat crime by improving visibility after dusk. An urban police department claims that the proportion of crimes committed after dusk will fall below the current level of 0.84 if LED streetlights are installed. Specify the null and alternative hypotheses to test the police department’s claim.

An instructor was interested in how framing impacted her students' feelings about her grades. She randomly assiagned students to either receive positive ("This is an improvement") or negative ("You will still need to do a lot of work on this") feedback on an assignment. She further assigned students to a points lost (-10 points) or points gained (+90 condition) condition. After teach assignment was returned, she asked students to rate the fairness of their grades on a 10-point scale (0 = not fair at all, 10 = extremely fair). Points Lost Points Gained Mean Positive Feedback 7.8 7.9 7.85 Negative Feedback 4.3 5.5 4.9 Mean 6.05 6.7…
A roulette wheel has 30 slots, consisting of 2 blues, 8 whites, and 20 red slots. You will receive P100 if the roulette stops spinning on a blue slot, you will receive P50 on a white slot, but you will be penalized P10 if the roulette stops spinning on a red slot. Let X be the amount you will recieve (or pay). What are the possible values of X? x= 2, 8, 20 x= 100, 50, -10 x= 100, 50, 10 x= 30, 2,8, 20

Can you please help with all 3 parts of this question: To test for a relationship between gender and souvenir shopping, a survey of more than 2,000 tourists was conducted. One question asked how often a tourist purchases photographs, postcards, or paintings of the region visited. Responses were recorded as “always”, “often”, “occasionally”, or “rarely or never”. The table shows the number of tourists responding in each category by gender. Male Female Aways 275 445 Often 420 500 Occasionally 390 425 Rarely or never 305 230 a. Give the marginal distribution of responses. b. Give the conditional distribution of responses for each gender. Do you think there is a relationship between gender and souvenir purchase frequency? c. Test for a relationship between gender and souvenir purchase frequency at a significance level of 0.1.

Please answer all sub-parts According to the manufacturer of M&Ms, 12% of peanut M&Ms in a bag should be brown, 15% yellow, 12% red, 23% blue, 23% orange, and 15% green. A student randomly selects a bag of peanut M&Ms. For the 400 M&Ms in the bag, the the number of M&Ms that were of each color is in the table below. At the ? = 0.05 level, does the data support the manufacturer's claim for the distribution of colors of peanut M&Ms? (Note: We did not give the Expected Counts, you will need to compute them yourself.) Color Frequency Brown 53 Yellow 66 Red 38 Blue 96 Orange 88 Green 59 Complete the hypothesis test: a) State the null and alternative hypotheses: H0 and H1 b) Compute the ?2 statistic c) Give the critical ?2 value (from Table VIII). d) State the conclusion
