Adults were randomly selected for a Newsweek poll. They were asked if they "favor or oppose using federal tax dollars to fund medical research using stem cells obtained from human embryos." Of those polled, 481 were in favor, 401 were opposed, and 120 were unsure. A politician claims that people don’t really understand the stem cell issue and their responses to such questions are random responses equivalent to a coin toss. Exclude the 120 subjects who said that they were unsure, and use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that the proportion of subjects who respond in favor is equal to 0.5. What does the result suggest about the politician’s claim?

Atechnician compares repair costs for two types of microwave ovens (type i and type ii). he believes that the repair cost for type i ovens is greater than the repair cost for type ii ovens. a sample of 6767 type i ovens has a mean repair cost of $79.79$⁢79.79. the population standard deviation for the repair of type i ovens is known to be $19.18$⁢19.18. a sample of 5555 type ii ovens has a mean repair cost of $75.24$⁢75.24. the population standard deviation for the repair of type ii ovens is known to be $21.40$⁢21.40. conduct a hypothesis test of the technician's claim at the 0.050.05 level of significance. let μ1μ1 be the true mean repair cost for type i ovens and μ2μ2 be the true mean repair cost for type ii ovens. step 2 of 4 : compute the value of the test statistic. round your answer to two decimal places.
