A Retirement Confidence Survey if 1153 workers and retirees in the US, 55 years of age and older
conducted by AARP in 2010 found that 496 had less than $10,000 in savings. A survey of 1300 adults
in the same age group was conducted recently. Which one of the following statistical tests would be
most appropriate for establishing whether that parameter is different today?
a) One-sample test for population mean (t-test)
b) One-sample test for a population proportion (z-test)
c) Matched pairs (dependent samples) test for difference of means (t-test)
d)Two-sample (independent samples) test for difference of means (t-test)
e) Two-sample test for difference of population proportions (z-test)
Homework Answers
option E is correct
b) e) Two-sample test for difference of population proportions (z-test)
(since we are testing population proportion difference)

1. Twelve pairs of identical twins that were separated at birth are reunited at age 21. Each twin is weighed. Of interest is if identical twins raised separately will weigh within 10 pounds of each other as young adults. The sample average difference was 12.1 pounds with a standard deviation of 3.4 pounds. If we conduct a hypothesis test, the distribution to use is ______________. a. Normal b. Binomial c. Student-t with df = 24 d. Student-t with df =...

Sony would like to test the hypothesis that the average age of a PlayStation user is different from the average age of an Xbox user. A random sample of 36 PlayStation users had an average age of 34.2 years while a random sample of 30 Xbox users had an average age of 32.7 years. Assume that the population standard deviation for the age of PlayStation and Xbox users is 3.9 and 4.0 years, respectively. Sony would like to set α...

For the following experiment/question, pick the most appropriate statistical test. You have the following statistical tests as choices: some may be used more than once, others not at all. Assume homogeneity of variance (where applicable) and the validity of parametric tests (where applicable), unless something is directly stated (e.g., “the data are not at all normal”) or otherwise indicated (viz., by the inspection of the data) which would indicate a strong and obvious violation of an assumption. This means you must...

Forty refrigerators from two different models of a refrigerator manufacturer are compared to see if the smaller model uses less energy than the larger model. The energy was measured in kilowatt hours per month (kwh/mo). From years of testing these models, it is known that the standard deviation of kwh/mo is 34 kwh/mo for the smaller model and 40 kwh/mo for the larger one. From this survey, the sample means and standard deviations are 125 and 34, and 90 and...
