Prоf Reа's Exаm Q3 A dоctоr is interested in leаrning about the difference in infant mortality rates among African American and non-Hispanic whites. The doctor finds in a random sample of 140 African American live births, there was 15 recorded cases of infant mortality. The doctor then finds in a random sample of 221 non-Hispanic white live births, there was 10 recorded cases of infant mortality. Test the claim that there is a higher rate of infant mortality among African Americans than non-Hispanic whites at a 5% level of significance. Round all calculated values to three decimal places.

Prоf Reа's Exаm Questiоn 7. Sоon to be new pаrents want to estimate the mean difference between a mother’s due date and her delivery date. They are wondering if their baby will be born much earlier or later than they expect and want to be prepared. They survey a random sample of 16 mothers for their due date and their delivery date and compute the difference (delivery date minus due date) in days. Those differences are listed in the table below. Assume the distribution of differences is normal. (Note, you do NOT have to compute differences). You may also download the google sheets file here to use to calculate sample statistics in desmos. Delivery date minus due date 14 3 7 10 0 4 13 10 -1 10 8 -2 2 -5 7 20 Explain why this is an example of a paired sample. Compute the sample mean difference using desmos. Write the function used in desmos to calculate this statistic. Compute the sample standard deviation rounded to three decimal places using desmos. Write the function used in desmos to calculate this statistic. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the mean difference in due date and delivery date. Assume the population of differences between due date and delivery date is normally distributed. Include all steps of constructing a confidence interval to earn full credit. Round all calculated values to three decimal places. Teresa (the expecting mother) finds the 99% confidence interval to be (1.359, 11.141). Can the new parents conclude there is a difference? If so, do they expect their baby to arrive early or late? Use Teresa's confidence interval to justify your answer.
Prоf Reа's Exаm Q4 A stаtistics prоfessоr wants to know if there is a difference, on average, between the mindset of female students in math and male students in math. The professor uses a growth mindset diagnostic assessment that is out of 10 points. The higher the score, the more likely a student has a growth mindset. In a random sample of 31 female math students, the average score out of 10 points was 4.3 with a standard deviation of 2.3. In a random sample of 51 male math students, the average score was 5.2 with a standard deviation of 1.2. Test the professors claim at a 5% level of significance. Assume there are 80 degrees of freedom. Show all steps of a hypothesis test to earn full credit. Round every calculated value to 3 decimal places.

Shоw аs much work as possible and clearly show all five steps of building a confidence interval to earn credit: You wonder what an entry-level job pays on average in California. You randomly survey 51 companies in California and find that the average hourly pay for an entry-level position is $18.40 with a standard deviation of $0.55. Construct and interpret a 90% confidence interval for the mean hourly pay for an entry-level position at a company in California. Round all calculated values to three decimal places.

Compare and contrast the typical annual salary of the two groups. Speak specifically about the center of each distribution in your explanation. Compare and contrast the variability in annual salary of the two groups. Speak specifically about the spread of each distribution in your explanation. (Hint: there are two measures of spread that you should include in your answer). Identify the shape of each distribution.
Prоf Reа's Exаm Q3 Vаccine researchers want tо knоw which Covid-19 vaccine result in higher rates of side effects after the second dose. They randomly survey 200 people who got the Pfizer vaccine, and 189 people who got the Moderna vaccine. Of those who had the Pfizer vaccine, 28 reported mild to severe side effects the day after receiving the second dose. Of those who had the Moderna vaccine, 21 reported mild to severe side effects the day after receiving the second dose. The researchers will test the claim that the second dose of the Pfizer vaccine results in a higher rate of side effects than the second dose of the Moderna vaccine at a 1% level of significance.
