Problem 1: Consider the following table for determining critical “r” values.

a. Given a data set with 8 data pairs:

The lower critical value of “r” would be __________

The upper critical value of “r” would be __________

b. Given an actual “r” value of - 0.82, would this indicate a linear relationship exists or not.
Choose one below by circling:

Linear relationship exists Linear relationship does not exist

Problem 2: According to a survey taken at a new grocery store, 91 out of 141 surveyed said they
liked the new deli. In another survey, 117 out of 236 surveyed said they liked the new bakery.

a. Construct and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the mean difference of the
population proportions.

Confidence interval upper bound: __________ Confidence interval lower bound: __________

Margin of error: ________

Determine the sample proportions: p1̂ : _______ and p2̂ : _____

b. Interpretation of the confidence interval:

Suppose a two sample proportion test of proportions was used to test a claim that the proportion of
the those who liked the new deli and the proportion of those who liked the new bakery are different.
Use a level of significance, α = 0.05.

c. Set up the hypotheses

d. Determine the test statistic , the p-value, and the critical test statistic for this scenario.

Test Statistic “z”: ________ P-Value: ________

Critical Test Statistics “z”: ________ ________

e. Make a sketch of the situation:

f. Interpret the results and include a “why,” (still taking alpha to be 0.05.)

Problem 3: At an amusement park in Pennsylvania, Potato Patch fries are all the rage. The
sample mean of cheese Potato Patch fries sold per hour is 100 with a standard deviation of 12. The
sample size is 40 (different hours). The sample mean of gravy Potato Patch fries sold in one hour is
500 with a standard deviation of 4. The sample size is also 40 (different hours).

a. Construct and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the mean difference of the
population means.

Confidence interval lower bound: __________ Confidence interval upper bound: __________

Margin of error: ________

Determine the sample means: x1: _______ and x2: _______

b. Interpretation:

Test the claim that the mean number of cheese Potato Patch fries sold per hour and the mean
number of gravy Potato Patch fries in one hour is not the same (aka not equal). Assume all
conditions to be in place and use a level of significance α = 0.05.

c. Set up the hypotheses:

d. Find the test statistic, P-Value, and Critical Statistic for this scenario:

Test Statistic “t”: __________ P-Value: __________

Critical Statistics “t”: __________ __________
