Hi, the answer is A, 6. When you have 2 negative signs like: 1-(-5), it turns into 1+(+5). When you have to add a negative, like: 13+(-12), it turns into 13-(12)

Of 580580 samples of seafood purchased from various kinds of food stores in different regions of a country and genetically compa
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

a) The 99% confidence interval would be given (0.204;0.296).

b) We have 99% of confidence that the true population proportion of all seafood sold in the country that is mislabeled or misidentified is between (0.204;0.296).  

c) No that's not true. Because the necessary assumptions and conditions for the confidence interval for the proportion are satisifed, so then we can use inferential statistics to interpret the interval to the population of interest.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a

Data given and notation  

n=580 represent the random sample taken    

X represent the seafood sold in the country that is mislabeled or misidentified by the people

\hat p=0.25 estimated proportion of seafood sold in the country that is mislabeled or misidentified by the people

\alpha=0.01 represent the significance level (no given, but is assumed)    

p= population proportion of seafood sold in the country that is mislabeled or misidentified by the people

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The population proportion have the following distribution

p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}})

The confidence interval would be given by this formula

\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}

For the 99% confidence interval the value of \alpha=1-0.99=0.01 and \alpha/2=0.005, with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the normal standard distribution.

z_{\alpha/2}=2.58

And replacing into the confidence interval formula we got:

0.25 - 2.58 \sqrt{\frac{0.25(1-0.25)}{580}}=0.204

0.25 + 2.58 \sqrt{\frac{0.25(1-0.25)}{580}}=0.296

And the 99% confidence interval would be given (0.204;0.296).

Part b

We have 99% of confidence that the true population proportion of all seafood sold in the country that is mislabeled or misidentified is between (0.204;0.296).  

Part c

A government spokesperson claimed that the sample size was too​ small, relative to the billions of pieces of seafood sold each​ year, to generalize. Is this criticism​ valid?

No that's not true. Because the necessary assumptions and conditions for the confidence interval for the proportion are satisifed, so then we can use inferential statistics to interpret the interval to the population of interest.

Lyte wishes to study speed of Reaction Time to press a button in response to the onset of a lamp. The independent variable (V) i
Vaselesa [24]

Complete question:

Dr. Lyte wishes to study speed of Reaction Time to press a button in response to the onset of a lamp. The independent variable (V) is the color of the light produced by the lamp (red, orange, yellow, green, or blue) Since only 10 participants are available, she elects to administer the IV within-subjects with all 10 participants being exposed to all five levels of the color variable. The order of the color of the light presentation is to be counterbalanced. Using concepts from the textbook, why would Dr. Lyte need to use counterbalancing in this scenario?

Answer:

Here,

Independent variable (IV) is: the color of the light produced by the lamp (red, orange, yellow, green, or blue)

We are also told only 10 participants are available.

All 10 participants are being exposed to all five levels of the color variable in the same order.

Counterbalancing is said to be a technique used when establishing task order. It helps prevent introduction if cofounding variables.

Dr. Lyte will need to use counterbalancing technique in this scenario because some of the participants may be unable to understand difference in similar colours. Example some participants may not be able to differentiate between orange and red when the red colour comes after orange.

But using counterbalancing technique, Dr. Lyte can avoid such an error.
