Target Grade: 12th Grade Statistics Instructions: Below are several different scenarios that require inference tests

to be used. After reading the provided data, decide which test you would use by circling the name (Dont actually perform the test). Then, scan the QR code beneath it to see if you chose the right test. 1. Acme Toy Company prints baseball cards. The company claims that 30% of the cards are rookies, 60% veterans, and 10% are All-Stars. The cards are sold in packages of 100. Suppose a randomly-selected package of cards has 50 rookies, 45 veterans, and 5 All-Stars. Is this consistent with Acme's claim? Use a 0.05 level of significance. 2-Sample T-test for means Chi-Square Goodness of Fit Test

2. A public opinion poll surveyed a simple random sample of 1000 voters. Respondents were classified by gender (male or female) and by voting preference (Republican, Democrat, or Independent). Are gender and voting preference related? Use a .05 significance level VOTING PREFERENCE REPUBLICAN INDEPENDENT 150 50 300 50 2-Sample Z-test for Proportions

3. An experiment is conducted to see if a certain type of music therapy will help reduce test anxiety in a sample of college students. A standard measure of test anxiety is known to affect an average of 20 students. When you sample a group of 100 co llege students, you get an average of 18, is this significantly different than the once prov ided? Set the significance level at .05.

4. An experiment on ESP was done at UC Davis to determine whether people thought to be clairvoyant really had ESP. A machine called the "Aquarius" used a random number generator to pick one of 4 targets. The subjects tried to guess which target the machine chose. There were 15 "clairvoyants", each of whom made 500 guesses for a total of 15 x 500 = 7,500 guesses. Out of these 2 006 were right. If the subjects had no ESP they'd be right of the time, which would be 1,875. Is there sufficient evidence to suggest that these people are clairvoyant?

5. The recovery time (in days) is measured for 10 patients taking a new drug and 10 different patients taking a placebo. We wish to test the hypothesis that the average recovery time for patients taking the drug is less than for those taking the placebo.
