Many companies use well-known celebrities as spokespersons in their TV advertisements. A study was conducted to determine whethe

r brand awareness of TV viewers and the gender of the spokesperson are independent. Each in a sample of 300 TV viewers was asked to identify a product advertised by a celebrity spokesperson. The gender of the spokesperson and whether or not the viewer could identify the product was recorded. The numbers in each category are given below. Find the rejection region necessary for testing at the 0.05 level of significance whether there is a relationship between brand awareness of TV viewers and the gender of the spokesperson.

Answer:

There is enough evidence to support the claim that the proportion of brand awareness of female TV viewers and the gender of the spokesperson are not independent (P-value = 0.01537).

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The question is incomplete: the picture attached gives the missing sample data.</em>

This is a hypothesis test for the difference between proportions.

The claim that is going to be stated in the alternative hypothesis is that the proportion of brand awareness of female TV viewers and the gender of the spokesperson are not independent. This means that the proportions differ significantly.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis can be written as:

H_0: \pi_1-\pi_2=0\\\\H_a:\pi_1-\pi_2\neq 0

The significance level is 0.05.

The sample 1 (Male celebrity), of size n1=150 has a proportion of p1=0.273.

p_1=X_1/n_1=41/150=0.273

The sample 2 (Female celebrity), of size n2=150 has a proportion of p2=0.407.

p_2=X_2/n_2=61/150=0.407

The difference between proportions is (p1-p2)=-0.133.

p_d=p_1-p_2=0.273-0.407=-0.133

The pooled proportion, needed to calculate the standard error, is:

p=\dfrac{X_1+X_2}{n_1+n_2}=\dfrac{41+61.05}{150+150}=\dfrac{102}{300}=0.34

The estimated standard error of the difference between means is computed using the formula:

s_{p1-p2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n_1}+\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n_2}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.34*0.66}{150}+\dfrac{0.34*0.66}{150}}\\\\\\s_{p1-p2}=\sqrt{0.001496+0.001496}=\sqrt{0.002992}=0.055

Then, we can calculate the z-statistic as:

z=\dfrac{p_d-(\pi_1-\pi_2)}{s_{p1-p2}}=\dfrac{-0.133-0}{0.055}=\dfrac{-0.133}{0.055}=-2.44

This test is a two-tailed test, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a z-table):

P-value=2\cdot P(z

As the P-value (0.01537) is smaller than the significance level (0.05), the effect is significant.

The null hypothesis is rejected.

There is enough evidence to support the claim that the proportion of brand awareness of female TV viewers and the gender of the spokesperson are not independent (the proportions differ).

John and Liz are sharing a large pizza. John ate 2/3 of the pizza, and Liz ate 1/5 of the pizza. How much of the pizza is left?​
Lelu [443]

Answer: 2/15

Step-by-step explanation: What you have to do is add what they ate then subtract it from the entire pizza to get how much remains. so 2/3 + 1/5 =13/15

15/15 (the whole pizza which equals 1) -13/15= 2/15

In a simple regression analysis (where y is a dependent and x an independent variable), if the y-intercept is positive, then it
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

m=\frac{S_{xy}}{S_{xx}}  

Where:  

S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i)}{n}  

S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}  

\bar x= \frac{\sum x_i}{n}  

\bar y= \frac{\sum y_i}{n}  

And we can find the intercept using this:  

b=\bar y -m \bar x  

On this case the correct answer would be:

E.  none of the above

Since the intercept has no association between the increase/decrease of the dependent variable respect to the independent variable

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the following options:

A.  there is a positive correlation between X and Y

B.  there is a negative correlation between X and Y

C.  if X is increased, Y must also increase

D.  if Y is increased, X must also increase

E.  none of the above

If we want a model y = mx +b where m represent the lope and b the intercept

m=\frac{S_{xy}}{S_{xx}}  

Where:  

S_{xy}=\sum_{i=1}^n x_i y_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)(\sum_{i=1}^n y_i)}{n}  

S_{xx}=\sum_{i=1}^n x^2_i -\frac{(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i)^2}{n}  

\bar x= \frac{\sum x_i}{n}  

\bar y= \frac{\sum y_i}{n}  

And we can find the intercept using this:  

b=\bar y -m \bar x  

On this case the correct answer would be:

E.  none of the above

Since the intercept has no association between the increase/decrease of the dependent variable respect to the independent variable
