Are older men shorter than younger men? According to the
National Health Statistics
Reports, the mean height for US men is 69.4 inches. In a sample of
300 men between the ages
of 60 and 69, the mean height was 69 inches. Public Health
officials want to determine whether
the mean height for older men is less than the mean height of all
adult men. Assume that the
population standard deviation is σ = 2.84.

A polling organization found in 1996 that 57% of people in a
large country are concerned about global warming, up from 54% in
1995. Results for this poll were based on telephone interviews
conducted in 1996, with a random sample of 1424 adults, aged 18
and older, living in the country. Does the increase from 1995 to
1996 show a significant increase in concern?
Question: Perform the test and find the P-value. What
is the test statistic?

6.36 Diabetes and unemployment: A 2012 Gallup
poll surveyed Americans about their employment status and whether
or not they have diabetes. The survey results indicate that 1.5% of
the 47,774 employed (full or part time) and 2.5% of the 5,855
unemployed 18-29 year olds have diabetes.
(a) Create a two-way table presenting the results of this
study.

(b) State appropriate hypotheses to test for independence of
incidence of diabetes and employment status.

20 women and 30 men between 18 to 60 years old and the
number of hours that they work. These information would be your
populations. For each group find the followings:
20 Women Ages = 19, 23, 40, 18, 60, 50, 21, 30, 33, 28,
33, 35, 28, 24, 28, 18, 19, 22, 25, 50
20 women work hours weekly = 40, 24, 30, 31, 19, 10, 21,
