It is known that roughly 2/3 of all human beings have a dominant right foot or eye. Is there also right-sided dominance in kissi

ng behavior? An article reported that in a random sample of 130 kissing couples, both people in 84 of the couples tended to lean more to the right than to the left. (Use α = 0.05.) If 2/3 of all kissing couples exhibit this right-leaning behavior, what is the probability that the number in a sample of 130 who do so differs from the expected value by at least as much as what was actually observed? (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

Answer:

1) The calculated statistic is in the acceptance region so the decision is to not reject the null hypothesis. This means that at a 5% level the population proportion of couples that lean to right while kissing is 2/3.

2) P(84 ≤ X ≤ 87) = 0.21226

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

1)

The study variable is:

X: Number of couples that lean to the right while kissing out of 130 kissing couples.

This variable is discrete and has a binomial distribution, the success of the binomial experiment is "lean to the right" and the study parameter is the population proportion of couples that lean to the right while kissing (p)

The hypothesis is that 2/3 of people leans to the right while kissing, symbolically: p= 2/3 (or p= 0.67)

So the statistical hypothesis is:

H₀: p= 2/3

H₁: p≠2/3

α: 0.05

This test has a two-tailed critical region and the distribution to use is the standard normal.

Z_{\alpha /2} = Z_{0.025}= -1.96\\Z_{1-\alpha /2} = Z_{0.975}= 1.96

If Z≤ -1.96 or if Z ≥ 1.96 you will reject the null hypothesis.

Data:

Sample n= 135

Sample proportion 'p= 84/135= 0.62 (28/45)

Z= \frac{('p - p)}{\sqrt{\frac{'p(1-'p)}{n} } }≈ N(0;1)

Z= \frac{(0.62 - 2/3)}{\sqrt{\frac{0.62*0.38}{130} } }

Z= -1.10

The calculated statistic is in the acceptance region so the decision is to not reject the null hypothesis. This means that at a 5% level the population proportion of couples that lean to right while kissing is 2/3.

2)  

If 2/3 of all kissing couples exhibit this right-leaning behavior, what is the probability that the number in a sample of 130 who do so differs from the expected value by at least as much as what was actually observed? (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

The expected number of right kissers is calculated as:

'x= n*p= 130*2/3= 86.67≅ 87

You need to calculate the probability of the kissers being between the expected (86) and observed (84) coumples:

Remember using CLT we approximated the distribution of the sample proportion to normal: 'p ≈ N(np, np(1-p))

Mean= np= 86.67≅ 87

Standard deviation: √np(1-p)= √130*2/3(1-2/3)= 5.37

P(84 ≤ X ≤ 87) = P(X ≤ 87) - P(X ≤ 84)

P(Z ≤ (87-87)/5.37) - P(Z ≤ (84-87)/5.37) =  P(Z ≤ 0) - P(Z ≤ -0.56) = 0.5 - 0.28774= 0.21226

Mike makes 4 dozen cookies. He brings 75% of them for a party at his school. How many did he bring?
baherus [9]

Answer:

He brought 3 dozen cookies

She ate \frac{2}{5} of the bag of Doritos

She read 25 books

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ Mike makes 4 dozen cookies

∵ He brings 75% of them for a party at his school

- Multiply 75% by 4

∵ 75% = \frac{75}{100}=\frac{3}{4}

∴ He brought = \frac{3}{4} × 4

∴ He brought = 3

He brought 3 dozen cookies

∵ Sam bought a bag of Doritos

∵ She ate only 40% of them

∵ 40% = \frac{40}{100}=\frac{2}{5}

∴ She ate = \frac{2}{5} × 1

∴ She ate = \frac{2}{5}

She ate  \frac{2}{5} of the bag of Doritos

∵ Jamie took 50 books from the library

∵ She only read half of her whole stack

- Multiply half by 50

∴ She read = \frac{1}{2} × 50

∴ She read = 25

She read 25 books
